Cooking with electricity could make a significant contribution to achieving Sustainable Development Goal No.7 by simultaneously enabling cost-effective access to modern energy and clean cooking, and proposing the steps needed to realize this opportunity.

India's power transmission networks constitute vital arteries of the entire power value chain. Growth of power sector is contingent to development of a robust and a non-collapsible transmission network.

Karnataka is well placed to meet its energy needs over the next decade thanks to its rapid deployment of renewables as part of India’s ambitious decarbonisation programme, which aims to reduce emissions while meeting energy demand and supporting economic growth.

Low carbon electricity transition roadmaps that help authorities evaluate future power supply options are valuable tools for developing India’s climate mitigation strategies.

The report examines practical options for subsidy targeting in India by using a survey of over 900 households to analyze the distribution of residential electricity subsidies in the state of Jharkhand. It also examines various strategies to improve subsidy distribution and to better target benefits to poor households.

Achieving deep decarbonization in the US will require days, and potentially weeks, of energy storage to be available – but today’s technologies only provide hours of capacity. Evolving technologies, like hydrogen, will be needed for long duration storage that can extend to weeks of capacity.

The global power sector will change significantly in the coming years, as variable renewable resources are deployed on a large scale and new flexibility options appear, such as energy storage devices.

Electricity generated from wind and solar is 30-50 per cent cheaper than previously thought, according to newly published UK government figures.

This report shows evidence that wind and solar have quickly increased to become a major source of electricity in most countries in the world, and are successfully reducing coal generation throughout the world.
