The institutional framework in India attracts investments for its growing energy needs - private sector investments are allowed in coal mining, open up oil and gas retail markets.

The cost of generating power from the sun has dropped more than 80% in the last decade, making it competitive with plants powered by fossil fuels like coal and natural gas.

These parties have made proposals involving solar photovoltaic (PV) and wind power, as well as liquefied natural gas and battery storage.

Turkey aims to produce 50% of its electricity from renewables by 2023 (up from 44% in 2019). Solar accounts for around 7% of Turkey’s installed capacity, with 6 GW at the end of 2019.

Iraq's oil minister and a Total delegation also discussed potential development of solar power projects in the country's central and southern provinces. The two sides also discussed Total's potential support and financing of oil infrastructure projects.

Vietnam will need about US$320bn to develop its power sector in 2021-2045,

The South Australia government has given planning approval for the massive $3 billion Goyder South wind, solar and battery storage project

By 2024, the renewable capacity is expected to more than double from 1.8 GW to 4.3 GW (+139%).

This 2.1 GW programme is part of South Korea's strategy to become carbon neutral by 2050.

State Grid expects wind and solar installed capacity to hit 1,000 GW by 2030

That brings the total shortfall to nearly $2.5 billion, according to a market notice.

"The entire energy sector failed Texas," said NRG Energy Inc Chief Executive Mauricio Gutierrez, who testified.

The Central Electricity Authority (CEA) projects that solar and wind will form 51% of India’s total installed capacity, or 420GW, by 2030, with biomass and small hydro adding another 30GW, while the IEA’s India Energy Outlook 2021 says that India could add 900GW of renewable capacity by 2040.

France’s installed renewable capacity, including hydropower, increased by more than 2 GW in 2020

"At the end of the day our customers want reliable energy. For us natural gas is the complement to renewable energy — there is no way to think of a reliable system without having a flexible way to produce electricity. Gas is offering this flexibility,"
