As Japan moves away from nuclear power plants, it has turned to renewables to diversify its energy mix. Auctions have emerged as a key policy tool for the transition.
Hybridising diesel mini-grids with photovoltaic generation can yield significant cost savings. This study compares the costs of diesel-only and hybridised mini-grids at seven sites – three in Africa, two in Asia and three in Latin America – and shows potential cost savings at all seven sites.
The first regional workshop for REmap and FlexTool Central America harmonised awareness of the relevant existing work in the region, exchange the best practices of Central American countries, and shared details of IRENA's REmap and FlexTool analyses.
Registrations Now Open for IOREC. The First International Conference on Renewable Energy for Healthcare follows IOREC, bridging energy and health to improve rural healthcare.
This report analyses the regional energy landscape, potential and costs, policy and investment needs, and expected socio-economic impact from a shift to renewables.
This report explores the prospects for renewables to diversify national economies and the combined GCC energy mix, while helping the region meet climate goals.
A practical guide for decision-makers and project developers on the available energy storage solutions and their successful applications in the context of islands communities. The report also includes various best practice cases and different scenarios and strategies. It is developed as part of the IRENA Renewables in Islands Initiative (IRII).
Smart grid technologies support the creation of an increasingly flexible electricity grid, enabling the integration of variable renewable energy. They work by incorporating information and communications technology at all stages of power generation, delivery and consumption, improving reliability and service to end-users.
IRENA produces comprehensive, reliable data sets on renewable energy capacity and use worldwide. This is the 2019 edition.
The cost of electricity from renewable energy technologies has fallen steadily, and in some cases dramatically, in recent years.
