President Biden’s proposed solar power expansion would cost $350 billion in federal support over the coming decade. An energy expert explains where that money would come from and who it would help.
China’s Belt and Road initiative offers advantages and drawbacks for renewable energy development worldwide.
Solar PV is the future of energy in Indonesia. Indonesia has vast solar energy potential, far larger than all other energy sources combined.
The world hydropower industry has public relations work to do, if its global expansion is to be realised. But stringent oversight is urgently needed.
Natural gas was once widely seen as a bridge fuel to renewable energy. But the industry’s methane leaks make it a larger global warming threat than people realized.
Electric cars are still more resilient to price shocks than vehicles running on fossil fuels.
Good governance should be seen as the first and main tool for achieving climate change mitigation as policymakers pursue sustainable solutions for the environmental crisis.
Local communities near lithium deposits shouldn’t become zones of sacrifice, shouldering the socio-environmental costs of supporting a renewable energy transition.
Dozens of energy suppliers could go bust in the coming months.
A growing number of countries and companies have pledged to reach net-zero emissions by 2050 or earlier. But there’s a catch – they still plan to keep emitting greenhouse gases.
The submarine announcement is sure to trigger a new round of debate on whether nuclear energy is right for Australia. But let’s be clear: the technology makes no sense for Australia.
The shipping sector’s emissions are equivalent to some industrial countries: here’s some innovative ways to help reduce them.
The way we use fossil fuels is wasteful and inefficient. A world based on renewable energy would need half as much as we produce now.
A decade ago, solar power was a tiny sliver of the US energy supply. Today it’s expanding rapidly – and the Biden administration wants to make it much, much bigger.
The world is moving away fossil fuels, and there’s nothing Australia can do about it. Racing to dig up and sell whatever fossil fuels we can before the timer stops is not a future-proof strategy.
Major research found Australia must keep 95% of coal in the ground to limit global warming. With a little political will, this would be easy to do.
Current approaches to expand renewable energy in Ghana are not inclusive of the rural poor.
Electric vehicles are poised to take over our roads: so how do we make sure this change doesn’t exacerbate social and energy inequality?
From its inadequate safety provisions to vague wording around Native Title rights and interests, the bill leaves us wanting.
