Limiting the global average temperature rise to 1.5°C will require decarbonisation across every sector and value chains by 2050. Sectors particularly hard-to-abate include road freight transport, shipping, aviation, iron and steel, and chemicals and petrochemicals.

2024 marks a pivotal moment in the global energy transition as renewable energy surges to unprecedented heights. Yet, despite the remarkable progress, the pace of change remains insufficient to meet the ambitious goal of tripling renewable energy capacity by 2030

A quiet revolution is happening on the streets of Colombo, Sri Lanka. There is a new type of public transport running around the city. Locally known as tuk-tuks, these three-wheelers are no stranger to Sri Lankans, but these ones look quite different.

The next generation's readiness in Sri Lanka is key to continue the efforts in nature conservation and the sustainable livelihoods in the community.

In a remote village in Honduras, a decentralised, sustainable energy project combining solar power, biomass, and battery storage has provided continuous electricity—empowering the community, enhancing the quality of life with refrigeration for food and medicines, and revitalising the local economy.

In the small community of Epworth, rural Zimbabwe, access to clean water was scarce. But everything changed when solar panels were installed and a water borehole was constructed in the school.

The Floating offshore wind outlook report, commissioned by the 2023 Japanese G7 Presidency, explores the current state of the market for floating offshore wind, as well as recent technological developments in this nascent but increasingly competitive renewable energy industry.

The success of renewables is not only a story of records and data on energy progress. It is a story of a pivotal shift in the global energy priorities.
