 🚢 Exciting News from Stillstrom! 🌊   We are thrilled to announce the approval and publication of our offshore electric supply methodology through Verra (Verified Carbon Standard). This significant milestone provides us with increased flexibility when deploying our innovative offshore power and charging solutions and generating carbon credits. Now, with published methodologies through both Gold Standard and Verra, we can offer our clients even more options.   While this development is particularly relevant where mandated markets like the EU ETS are not in play, it offers us and our clients additional liquidity in various locations. This new methodology, VMR0010 Electricity Supply for Ships, v1.0, is a revision of the CDM methodology AMS-III.BP., expanding its scope to include offshore electricity supply systems such as power buoys. This expansion enables us to displace electricity produced from ships' auxiliary power generators that use fossil fuels, further contributing to emission reductions.   We are proud to lead the way alongside great partners in decarbonising the maritime sector and contributing to a greener, more sustainable future! https://lnkd.in/dxeC8Bvf #OffshorePowerAndCharging #OceanCleanTech #Partnerships #Decarbonise

BlackRock’s Climate Infrastructure business has entered into a new renewables partnership with Google in Taiwan, including a capital investment from the tech giant into BlackRock’s portfolio company New Green Power 永鑫能源 (NGP). NGP will also offer Google the rights to procure up to 300 MW of solar power from the company’s solar development pipeline in Taiwan, as well as the opportunity to extend clean energy capacity to Google’s suppliers in the region. “As we witness growth in demand for digital services, powered by AI and data-centric technologies, it becomes imperative to invest in the infrastructure that not only supports this growth but also aligns with our strategy to invest in clean energy,” said David Giordano, Global Head of Climate Infrastructure at BlackRock. “This partnership is a testament to our shared commitment to driving the transition to a low-carbon economy.” Amanda Peterson Corio, Global Head of Data Center Energy at Google, added: “We’re aiming to reach net-zero emissions across our operations and value chain, supported by a goal to run on 24/7 carbon-free energy everywhere we operate. “The path to reach these goals is challenging, and requires both commercial efforts and broader energy systems change. We’re excited to partner with BlackRock and New Green Power to advance the build out of clean energy on Taiwan’s electricity grid.” The new BlackRock-Google partnership is expected to support the roll-out of NGP’s solar pipeline. NGP, which is is 100% owned by a fund managed by BlackRock’s Climate Infrastructure business, aims to build 1 GW of solar capacity in the coming years. “This is a pivotal moment for energy infrastructure in Taiwan,” remarked Ross Mackey, Portfolio Manager, Climate Infrastructure at BlackRock. “BlackRock’s Climate Infrastructure business is a leading investor in Taiwan’s solar industry and we are delighted to partner with Google to provide a scalable and sustainable energy solution for their operations in Taiwan.” #cleanenergy

New agrivoltaics data shows improved grass, forage production under solar panels: The National Research Institute for Agriculture, Food and the Environment (INRAE) is carrying out two agrivoltaics research projects on solar parks operated by BayWa r.e. and Valorem in several regions of France. Despite the different climatic conditions, similar positive trends were observed with a drop in temperature and an increase in soil humidity under the solar panels, as well as a better quality of forage that made it more digestible for animals. #Renewables #Energy #Technology

How it is resolved will impact Japan’s power sector decarbonization in general and Japan’s largest utility, JERA, in particular, as it envisions upgrading coal-powered thermal plants to run on ammonia. STEEL / GREEN TRANSFORMATION : The steel sector will get almost 50% of state green R&D funding over the next ten years. Price is one of the main factors that will influence the next steps in ‘green steelmaking’. In this second part we look at how the steel sector and the government are wrestling with disparities between what they ‘need’ the price of clean steel technologies to look like and what they are in practice.

😎 Our latest issue on #SolarEnergy dropped yesterday, in contributing to solving Southeast Asia's (SEA) #EnergyTransition as the 3rd issue in our energy transition series. 📈 According to the Global Energy Monitor "#ASEAN countries have over 28 GW of operating utility-scale solar and wind capacity, up 20% from 23 GW in the last year". Promising projects like #Indonesia's Cirata floating solar power plant—the largest in SEA—coming online late last year. 🌞 #ResidentialSolar is truly an untapped market in the region and has a very bright future so it's exciting to see folks like Zhern Yung Lai of Okapi Solar, who we featured on the issue, building in #Malaysia alongside folks like Helios in the #Philippines. Catch the link in our bio to read more about it! 📥 #Climate #Sustainability #Environment #SoutheastAsia

🎉📢 DEG invests in #GreenHydrogen for the first time! DEG is supporting the development of the first green hydrogen plant in Uzbekistan, by providing ACWA Power UKS Green H2 LLC JV with a loan of USD 25 million for development and construction. 💚 After completion, the 20 MW hydrogen plant will produce around 3,000 tons of green hydrogen per year. The #GreenEnergy for the operation of the plant will be generated by a 52 MW extension of a wind farm in Bukhara province in Uzbekistan, already financed by DEG. 💡 The production of green hydrogen has the potential to play an important role in the #decarbonization of various sectors, as hydrogen can be used as a multiple energy source, for example in industry and the energy sector. In order to drive forward the #GreenTransformation in Uzbekistan, DEG is currently financing and supporting projects with a capacity up to 1,150 MW after completion. 🤝 Monika Beck, Managing Director at DEG commented: "DEG is proud to be part of the first pilot project for Green Hydrogen in Uzbekistan. Together with our longstanding partner ACWA Power we support the country on its way towards a greener and sustainable future. At the same time with this investment we continue to pursue DEG’s own #Impact.#Climate.#Returns strategy." 👉 Find out what Marco ARCELLI, CEO of ACWA Power, has to say about this partnership, and how the project contributes to Uzbekistan’s green hydrogen strategy, in our news: https://lnkd.in/esHkGmQx
