India and the IEA enter new phase of closer collaboration with signing of Strategic Partnership Framework

While renewables' 2020 performance was impressive, especially during a global pandemic, the report warns that the average pace of deployment through the 2020s will need to more than double that of the prior decade if the EU is going to hit its target of a 55 percent reduction in emissions by 2030.

Economic growth and the lessening of pandemic-related restrictions result in more energy consumption and associated CO2 emissions. EIA expects total energy-related CO2 emissions to increase to 4.8 billion metric tons in 2021 and 4.9 billion metric tons in 2022.

Existing nuclear technology could already produce hydrogen at below USD2 per kg, and a new generation of advanced small modular reactors could achieve the 90 cents per kg target price potentially by 2030.

Some of the country's largest energy customers, including Amazon, Facebook, General Motors, McDonald's, PepsiCo, Target and Walmart have called on the federal government to implement "strong and specific national policies" to accelerate the transition to a zero-carbon dioxide emissions power sector

As we aim to exit the COVID-19 pandemic and the economic crisis it has triggered we must face a greater threat – that of a changing climate.

Mexico's Federal Electricity Commission (CFE) plans to invest the equivalent of 20 billion dollars in five years in the sector through the 2021-2025 Business Plan, which is circulating here.

Since 2005, the three power resources have accounted for more than 90% of all capacity additions (328 GW), with a remarkable 97% (170.9 GW) during the last seven years alone.

Coal currently plays a critically important role in balancing the electricity grid while India drives an ever-larger infrastructure investment into ever-cheaper domestic, sustainable, zero emissions renewable energy.

The recent Russian SolarWinds hack has been identified as one the most significant cyberattacks against the US.

IRENA’s Members overwhelmingly approved the establishment of a new, vision-building Global High-Level Forum on Energy Transition,

Coal-fired capacity, which was multiplied by 4.5 over 2017-2019 (from 250 MW to over 1.1 GW), accounts for 6% of Bangladesh’s installed capacity (2019).

The Prime Minister of Vietnam has authorised the 1,200 MW (2x600 MW) Quang Trach 2 coal-fired power project in the Quang Binh province.

China electricity consumption rose by 3.1% in 2020

In 2020, global investment in the low-carbon energy transition totalled $501.3 billion, up from $458.6 billion in 2019 and just $235.4 billion in 2010.
