Climate remains one of a few topics where it is still able to find common ground with the western countries, which imposed sanctions on its economy. Russia has among the biggest delegation at COP this year, with 900 people registered.

В России уже 85% энергобаланса приходится на чистую, низкоэмиссионную генерацию. Это в первую очередь газовая, атомная энергетика, из возобновляемых источников.

Российский энергобаланс предусматривает и наращивание доли ВИЭ, но лишь в объемах, не создающих рисков для надежности энергосистемы страны и не приводящих к чрезмерной финансовой нагрузке.

An electricity shortage is bearing down on the nation and there are no easy fixes. Trump has laid out an energy policy that would emphasize oil and gas drilling and environmental controls and curbs on the rate of wind generation deployment. None of that will get us through the impending crisis as the demand for more electricity is surging.

Since gaining independence in 1947, India's power sector has achieved remarkable growth, with the installed capacity soaring from a mere 1,300 MW to an impressive 400 GW by 2023. This growth trajectory has been propelled by strategic investments in thermal, hydro, and renewable energy, underlining the sector's resilience, adaptability, and alignment with global sustainability goals.

As renewable energy sources like solar and wind become more widespread, their inherent unpredictability introduces new challenges. Unlike traditional fossil fuel power plants, renewable generation is intermittent, making it harder to forecast production and balance the grid.

Geographic Information Systems (GIS) offer a transformative approach to managing these networks, providing a comprehensive, real-world model of assets and enabling better decision-making and operational efficiency.

Ammonia, which consists of nitrogen and hydrogen, boasts a high energy density, making it a practical medium for hydrogen storage and transport.

Solar and wind generation facilities are approximately the same capital cost per unit of rated capacity as fossil fueled generation facilities. However, the renewable generators have a capacity factor approximately one third the capacity factor of the fossil generation facilities.

Climate change has led to more severe natural disasters with profound socioeconomic and infrastructural effects. From 1960 to 2019, there was a 13-fold increase in natural catastrophes worldwide.

Furthermore, the vulnerabilities of the power sector have cascading effects on critical infrastructure such as communication, health and other emergency services. On a power system level, a lack of situational awareness, inadequate system visibility and ageing infrastructure further contribute to a wider disturbance propagation and slowing down of restoration services.

Electricity being the key driver for rapid economic growth and poverty alleviation sets the target of providing access to all households.

The recent Russian Energy Week has opened new avenues for collaboration between Russia and African nations, emphasizing the potential benefits for the continent's energy landscape.

Energy-as-a-Service (EaaS)—a game-changing model that simplifies energy management, optimizes efficiency, and accelerates the integration of renewable energy for large-scale users.

Flexibility is increasingly emerging as a crucial strategy to address all of this at both macro and micro levels. On a macro scale, flexibility is essential for managing energy systems and grids.
