Renewable Energy
Wind and solar farms are expected to play a crucial role in tripling renewable energy capacity on a global scale by 2030. However, many countries are facing difficulty transitioning to clean energy at present, let alone meeting the net zero target. One of the struggles with the renewables is to
Energy Crisis
In 2022, the supply chain disruptions caused by Ukraine’s invasion increased coal production around the world by 8.2%. Over 70% of the coal mining happened in Asia, with China and India leading the production. Coal is a natural resource for energy production and is primarily used in electricity
Renewable Energy
In 2022, Germany announced a series of initiatives to transform the focus of the energy landscape into renewable energy. Their highly ambitious goals included achieving an 80% share of renewable sources in electricity generation by 2030 and 100% by 2035. These ambitious targets require an average expansion of 20 GW
Renewable Energy
Due to the climate crisis, reducing reliance on fossil fuels has become one of the top priorities for many companies. One promising solution is green hydrogen, produced using renewable energy, which holds potential as a versatile fuel and energy source. Deloitte predicts the hydrogen market's annual growth will
Renewable Energy
G20 nations, currently with 90% of the world's renewable capacity can triple it by 2030 through swift policy implementation. However, it is crucial as well for other nations, especially those in the developing world, to boost their renewable energy investments to fulfill its growing demand. The global commitment
Renewable Energy
An energy company, Soleolico, revealed the world's first solar-powered windmill in October of this year. This wind turbine with photovoltaic panels integrated into rotating blades merges the best of both energy sources, ensuring continuous electricity generation. Given the current reliance on fossil fuels, the transition to net zero
Renewable Energy
Only one wind turbine is needed to match approximately 48,704 solar panels to generate the same amount of electricity per kilowatt-hour (kWh). But does that mean it is the winner? As more businesses come under pressure to cut their greenhouse gas emissions, they are looking for clean energy that
Renewable Energy
The challenge of solar energy is not only the initial installation cost but includes environmental pollution linked to manufacturing, heavy dependence on weather conditions, lower efficiency of cells and limited energy storage capabilities. On average, a 400 Watts (W) solar panel receiving approximately 5 hours of peak sun exposure per
Renewable Energy
Energy consumption is currently responsible for over 75% of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions because non-renewable choices have continued to dominate global energy reservoirs for a long time. Adopting renewables can change this course and also bring down energy costs enormously. Based on findings from the Commercial Building Energy Consumption Survey,
Renewable Energy
The International Energy Agency (IEA) estimates significant growth for renewable energy from 2022 to 2027— approximately an 85% increase compared to the previous five years. This massive increase in our energy supply also means new employment opportunities. Sustainability jobs Despite numerous challenges of climate change, COVID-19 and the war that
Renewable Energy
Renewable energy is derived from natural resources that can be replenished indefinitely without the risk of depletion and harmful emissions. These sources include solar power, wind, hydropower, biomass, and geothermal. Renewable energy sources have gained well-earned attention over the decade as they are dependent on unlimited sources, which do not
Renewable Energy
The renewable energy capacity in Scandinavia countries has been growing steadily during the past ten years, although each country depends on a different source. Denmark relies on wind energy and biofuels, Norway on hydropower, and Sweden on biofuels. "The Nordic region has for the front year an expected oversupply
