The IEA analyzes how the adoption of artificial intelligence will redefine global electricity needs, between new challenges and concrete possibilities for energy innovation.
In March, META BUILD project partners met in Bolzano to share progress on interoperable electric technologies and energy services for the decarbonization of buildings.
The European wind industry proposes a new pact to relaunch the development of offshore wind. At the heart of the proposal: stable auctions for 100 GW by 2040 with Contracts for Difference, shared planning between EU countries, cost reduction and greater value for coastal communities.
New WindEurope report highlights how electricity taxes hinder industrial electrification in Europe
Germany, Poland and the Baltic States are accelerating their energy transition by focusing heavily on onshore wind energy. Favorable policies, new investments and grid enhancements are turning the energy crisis into an opportunity for growth and independence.
The new IEA report takes stock of energy innovation: concrete opportunities, but also signs of slowdown in investments and risks for the future.
Forecasts indicate continuous growth in the European solar photovoltaic market, with a 10% increase to 77 GW in 2024 and annual installations expected to exceed 100 GW by 2026.
Researchers from ENEA’s Sustainability Department have worked on various fronts to recover essential materials such as silicon, aluminum, and copper, as well as glass, silver, and polymer components.
How should it be implemented and what is crucial to consider? WindEurope analyzes the European context.
Hydroelectric production increased by 34.7%, photovoltaic production by 36.3%, and wind power production by 10.5%.
Clean hydrogen production is about to enter a phase of exponential growth, with forecasts indicating a 30-fold increase by 2030.
Despite a 25% increase in international public financing for clean energy in developing countries in 2022, this figure still represents only half of the peak recorded in 2016 of $28.5 billion.
