The International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) has revised up its projections of the potential growth of nuclear power capacity for electricity generation during the coming decades.

Adaptation measures include flood prevention measures and renovating buildings to make them more resilient to extreme temperature. The changes required vary across the continent, but recent events have shown that climate change poses a threat to Europe’s cities.

The global offshore wind industry installed 6.1GW of capacity in 2020, down slightly from a record 6.24GW in 2019, although GWEC expects a new record year in 2021, as China’s offshore wind sector rushes to install 7.5GW ahead of the expiry of current feed in tariffs (FITs).

Coal still powers 60% of Czech district heat. IEA said the country should develop clean options like large heat pumps and consider whether small nuclear reactors can take some of the role after 2030.

According to the National Steering Committee for Electricity Development, Vietnam’s wind capacity will reach 6 GW in 2025 and 10 GW in 2030 and solar capacity will grow to 14.4 GW in 2025 and 20 GW in 2030.

"The nuclear sector in the USA enjoys a robust track record in terms of annual operations, as measured by reliability, safety and zero-carbon generation," he said.

China has unveiled a plan to expand its pumped-storage hydropower capacity to 62 GW in 2025 and 120 GW in 2030.

By 2035, the decarbonization scenarios show cumulative solar deployment of 760–1,000 GW, serving 37%–42% of electricity demand

The Spanish Secretariat of State for Energy has scheduled the new auction for 3.3 GW of renewables capacity for 19 October 2021.

Petronas is pushing for the increased use of natural gas as a cleaner source of fuel while building capabilities in renewable energy for the security and sustainability of its supply,

In March 2020, the French government allowed EDF to postpone the deadline for commissioning the reactor to 2024.

Rosatom was working with the Sakhalin Oblast government on comprehensive measures to support the project, including those related to organising a hydrogen production complex on the island, where hydrogen can be produced for the needs of the transport sector.

Чтобы сохранить свою конкурентоспособность на мировом рынке, России необходимо уже в ближайшие несколько лет по-максимуму использовать свои преимущества, считает Павел Сорокин.

Павел Сниккарс напомнил, что правительство утвердило программу поддержки возобновляемых источников энергии до 2035 года в объёме 360 миллиардов рублей.

At the end of 2020 there were 441 operable nuclear reactors, with a combined capacity of 392 GWe. This total capacity has remained almost unchanged for the last three years.
