Historically in the U.S., transmission infrastructure has expanded annually by about 1%. The study explains the country's transmission infrastructure must expand at a pace of 2.3% annually — more than double its current pace.

The electric grids at most risk of supply shortfalls are in Texas, the central US system stretching from the Great Lakes to Louisiana, New England and the Carolinas, the North American Electric Reliability Council said in its seasonal assessment Thursday.

Nuclear energy must play a central role in economic relaunch strategies.

The Indonesia Just Energy Transition Partnership (JETP), which will be financed over a period of 3 to 5 years, is also backed by Canada, Denmark, the EU, France, Italy, Germany, Norway and the UK.

Under this strategy, India plans to expand its green hydrogen production, increase electrolyser manufacturing capacity, and increase its nuclear capacity three-fold by 2032 (6.8 GW at the end of 2021).

Japan aims to expand offshore wind energy capacity to 10 GW by 2030 and 30-45 GW by 2040.

The strategy articulates India's vision and action plan for achieving its goals set out in its Nationally Determined Contribution (NDC) which was updated earlier this year to commit India to reduce the emissions intensity of its GDP by 45% from 2005 levels, and to achieve "about 50%" of its cumulative installed electric capacity from non-fossil fuel-based energy resources, by 2030.

Hydrogen would be a key part of the future energy mix, with Saudi ambitions to produce 4 million mt/year of "clean" hydrogen by 2030.

Most of the hydrogen currently produced in the US is made through steam-methane reforming whereby methane reacts with high-temperature steam to produce carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, and hydrogen.

An “Energy Superhub” is being constructed in Coventry, a city in the middle of the UK, which will harmonize a number of renewable technologies to maximize the benefits of decarbonized electricity.

General Fusion CEO Greg Twinney said the partners are "strengthening the Canadian fusion industry and making progress on the path to supplying commercial fusion power to the electricity grid within a decade".

Dr Fatih Birol, Executive Director of the International Energy Agency (IEA), set the tone for the event by declaring at its outset: “Nuclear power is making comeback—and in a strong fashion.”

Here at the Department of Energy’s Office of Science, our mission is to deliver scientific discoveries.

Lithium, which, after a refining process, is used to produce cathode materials for lithium batteries, is currently produced almost entirely outside the United States.

The US, Japan and other countries will offer a climate finance deal worth at least $15 billion to help Indonesia shift its coal-dominated power grid away from the polluting fossil fuel.
