The #renewable energy system is about more than the #climate. It unlocks incredible efficiency gains through the power of #electrotech. ⚡️

Instead of using old sunshine, #solar power uses it in real-time, and it does so more affordably for everyone involved, without emitting harmful pollutants.

Four new community solar projects are operating in New York state, providing residents with clean, reliable, and affordable energy.

Grid-Scale Battery Stabilizes Scottish Power Supply Grid-scale batteries in Scotland are stabilizing power supply with advanced grid-forming inverters.

"A grid-scale battery in the Scottish Highlands got a chance to prove its mettle when, 11 days after it started, a massive generator in Northern England shut down unexpectedly. Suddenly 1,877 megawatts of supply was missing..." spectrum.ieee.org/gr...

Good morning with good news: Solar & wind generated 64.8% of Netherlands' electricity in June 2025!

Solar was 40.5%, up 9X from 4.5% in June 2019.

W&S generated 58.1% in June 2024.

For all of 2024, W&S produced 45.4% of Netherlands; electricity, up 3X from 14.1% in 2019.

Wonderful! #energysky

Chinese solar panel imports to Pakistan are soaring this year - Cipher News Chinese solar panels exports to Pakistan are set to exceed last years's record-breaking total as Pakistanis adopt solar at a record pace to avoid rolling power blackouts and high electricity bills.

Have you heard how solar power is transforming Pakistan?

In an era of rising electricity costs and persistent power outages, affordable Chinese solar panels are becoming a game-changer for countless households and businesses across the nation.

Analysis: China’s clean-energy exports in 2024 alone will cut overseas CO2 by 1% - Carbon Brief China’s clean-energy technologies such as solar panels, batteries and electric vehicles are helping to cut emissions in other countries.

Grouped bar chart showing the top 10 countries for avoided CO₂ emissions from China’s overseas clean-tech activity, in MtCO₂, for 2024. The data is split into three categories: Exports, Overseas factories, and Overseas power projects, and broken down by technology: solar, batteries, EVs, hydro, and wind. Exports: India and Saudi Arabia lead with the largest emissions reductions, primarily from solar, followed by Pakistan, Netherlands, and others. Overseas factories: Saudi Arabia and Malaysia dominate, mostly with solar, with contributions from Mexico, Brazil, and the UK (including hydro and EVs). Overseas power projects: UAE leads, followed by Tanzania, Egypt, and Iraq, with a mix of solar, hydro, and wind.

Two bar charts showing the regional impact of China’s clean-tech exports in 2024 on avoided CO₂ emissions: Left chart: Absolute avoided emissions by region in MtCO₂. MENA (Middle East and North Africa) leads with around 100 MtCO₂, followed by OECD Europe, South Asia, Southeast Asia & Pacific, North America, and other regions. Right chart: Avoided emissions as a percentage of regional totals. MENA again leads with a 4.5% reduction, followed by Sub-Saharan Africa (around 4%), Southeast Asia & Pacific (about 2.5%), OECD Europe (2%), and other regions. Source: Analysis by Lauri Myllyvirta for Carbon Brief.

South Asia, the Middle East, and North Africa are heavy-hitting regions for China's clean energy action and are set to see the greatest emissions reductions gains.

World map showing avoided CO₂ emissions in 2024 from China’s clean-tech activity, measured in MtCO₂ and represented by blue circles sized according to the volume of emissions reduced per country. Larger circles indicate greater CO₂ reductions. Saudi Arabia shows the largest reduction (80 MtCO₂), followed by India (34), the US (17), Pakistan (13), Malaysia (12), and the Netherlands (11). Several other countries across all continents show smaller reductions. A scale in the lower left corner shows circle sizes for 1, 10, and 80 MtCO₂. Source: Analysis by Lauri Myllyvirta for Carbon Brief.

Chinese cleantech exports reach nearly every country on earth. India and Saudi Arabia see the greatest emissions reductions from clean energy imports.

The emissions reduced from Chinese manufacturing of cleantech (including overseas operations) is nearly equal to the annual emissions of Australia. 🇦🇺

Bar and area chart illustrating the global emissions impact of China’s clean-energy exports in 2024. The chart shows that the upfront manufacturing emissions (represented by a small dark bar above the zero line in 2024) are quickly offset in less than a year. Below the zero line, uniform dark blue bars represent annual CO₂ emissions avoided from 2024 to 2044 due to the use of these exports. A large blue hatched triangle beneath the bars visualizes the cumulative emissions avoided over 20 years, labeled “Emissions savings will be 40x the CO₂ impact of manufacturing.” Source: Analysis by Lauri Myllyvirta for Carbon Brief.

The amount of emissions reduced from manufacturing these products far outweigh the emissions incurred from their development.

Incurred 2024 emissions: 110Mt CO2

Lifetime emissions reduced: 4GtCO2

Horizontal bar chart showing overseas CO₂ emissions avoided from China’s clean-tech activity in 2023–24, measured in MtCO₂ and broken down by technology type: solar, batteries, EVs, hydro, and wind. Three categories are shown: “Exports,” “Overseas factories,” and “Overseas power projects.” Solar dominates all three categories, particularly in exports, which account for the largest emissions savings. Batteries and EVs also contribute notably in overseas factories. Wind and hydro make smaller contributions. Source: Analysis by Lauri Myllyvirta for Carbon Brief.

Solar panels, EVs, wind turbines, and batteries exported from China in 2024 will reduce global emissions by 220M tonnes (MtCO2). 🔋 🚙

3. Battery Prices Are Falling Main Insight: The cost of battery storage is decreasing. Policy Advantage: Battery storage still qualifies for a significant Investment Tax Credit (ITC) boost. Implication for Solar: As battery prices drop, the overall profitability of solar energy systems increases. Summary Statement: Cheaper batteries ➜ more solar profitability.

#3: Battery prices are FALLING 🔋📉

And storage still qualifies for a big ITC boost.
Cheaper batteries → more solar profitability.
