A new report from GEM reveals the largest power capacity expansion on record across the BRICS group of nations. Future capacity additions will be driven primarily by utility-scale solar and wind ☀️💨🔌💡 @jamesnorman.bsky.social @globalenergymon.bsky.social globalenergymonitor.org/research/spl...

BRICS broke renewable records in 2025 — & fossil records too. Solar + wind additions hit 497GW, but the bloc also added 125GW of coal, oil and gas capacity. A split transition: renewables are cutting coal generation in places, while fossil capacity grows. globalenergymonitor.org/research/spl...

🇪🇺 Coal is in terminal decline in the #EU. Despite delays, coal generation fell for the 3rd year in a row to 9.2% of the mix. True security lies in scaling renewables, not extending aging plants. More in @globalenergymon.bsky.social and partners' report: globalenergymonitor.org/research/boo...

Who added the most pumped storage #hydropower (PSH) this year? 🗺️ 🇨🇳 China, 🇬🇧 the UK, and 🇮🇳 India are leading the world in newly operating PSH. China alone has 168 GW currently under construction. Track the global leaders: globalenergymonitor.org/projects/glo...

Each line shows the path from discovery to production for oil & gas fields starting in 2025. Takeaway: dev timelines now average 15 yrs, widening the gap between discovery & revenue — and increasing exposure to shifting demand & investment priorities. 📈 globalenergymonitor.org/report/longe...

Given global energy disruptions, I've been looking to generate insights from the Global Energy Ownership Tracker from the @globalenergymon.bsky.social team globalenergymonitor.org/projects/glo... This tracker provides #opendata on the chains of ownership for energy projects across the world... 🧵

14 GW of prospective geothermal capacity could double global output in a decade. Permitting timelines have hit record lows: ~28 days in the U.S. and just 5 days in Indonesia. Acceleration is real—but so are questions on oversight & long-term impact. 📈 globalenergymonitor.org/projects/glo...

Oil & gas fields are taking far longer to reach production. Projects starting in 2025 took ~15 years to come online: 3× longer than during the industry’s peak decades. Longer timelines mean projects risk arriving just as the energy transition accelerates. globalenergymonitor.org/report/longe...

From @gavinjmaguire.bsky.social in @reuters.com today: Africa's solar momentum is spreading fast ☀️ GEM's (@globalenergymon.bsky.social) data shows that Egypt is Northern Africa's leader in operating (3.3 GW) and prospective (46.7 GW) utility-scale solar projects! 🔌💡 www.reuters.com/markets/comm...
