Happy rainy Monday! Today, we would like to show you this article posted in the AFR last week: 'Global players dominate solar, wind' International giants are leading the charge in our country's renewable energy evolution! 🌏💡 Companies from China, France, Spain, and across Asia have taken the helm in Australia's burgeoning large-scale solar farm sector, surpassing local heavyweights like AGL Energy and Origin Energy. Beijing Energy International has emerged as the largest owner of utility-scale solar projects Down Under, following its game-changing acquisition of Lightsource BP's Australian assets for $813 million. This move catapulted Beijing Energy's Aussie portfolio to over two gigawatts, valued at more than $3 billion, showcasing their deep commitment to our market. Not to be outdone, Spain's Acciona and Iberdrola, along with FRV (Fotowatio Renewable Ventures), are also pivotal players in Australia's solar landscape. Meanwhile, companies like ACEN from the Philippines and Gentari from Malaysia have made significant strides through strategic acquisitions. While AGL and Origin excel in battery storage, their focus has left them trailing in utility-scale PV and wind energy development, highlighting the dominance of international firms in shaping Australia's renewable future. 🌿✨ What are your thoughts on Renewable Energy? #SolarEnergy #RenewableRevolution

NEW publication: #Kazakhstan could quadruple the share of variable #renewableenergy in its power mix to 20 percent by 2030, bringing it more in line with its 2060 #carbonneutrality target. Accelerating the deployment of wind and solar energy is key to achieving this, facilitating a phase-out of coal and creating opportunities for electrification in heating, transport, and industry 🌱 The new study models four different scenarios for 2030: one for business-as-usual and three others that are more ambitious. The model emphasises the feasibility of transitioning to higher shares of variable renewables while minimising power system costs. Key measures to successfully transform Kazakhstan’s energy system include: ⚡ expanding and reinforcing the grid 💡 increasing energy efficiency 📄 developing a plan to move away from coal Despite challenges, Kazakhstan’s economy has witnessed increasing penetration of renewables over the past decade. Looking ahead, the study demonstrates the feasibility of transitioning directly from coal to renewables, paving the way for electrification and energy efficiency gains across various sectors on the road to carbon neutrality. The publication “Modernising Kazakhstan’s coal-dependent power sector through renewables: challenges, solutions and scenarios up to 2030 and beyond” was produced in collaboration with Open Energy Transition, ECOJER Association and Qazaq Green Association ➡ download it for free here: https://lnkd.in/d48475sk #Kazakhstan #Renewables #CleanEnergyTransition #Data Tatiana Lanshina Christian Redl Long Nguyen Martha Maria F.
