Did you know @globalenergymon.bsky.social’s Wind and Solar trackers also record associated battery storage 🔋? Not surprisingly, China ranks #1 with 1,000+ wind and solar projects with colocated storage. Full analysis: globalenergymonitor.org/report/energ...

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...

As gas production in the Permian Basin approaches peak, new LNG export routes are being built to extend the reach of U.S. gas into Asian markets. Our new interactive briefing traces one of these pathways + the long-term implications:

NEW - New coal power proposals in 🇨🇳 reached 161 GW in 2025, a record high, says a new report by @creacleanair.bsky.social and @globalenergymon.bsky.social Many coal plants in China are loss-making and run far below full capacity For more, see my article in @carbonbrief.org - link in the comments ⬇️

Record proposals are only part of the story. China commissioned 78 GW of coal in 2025 and retired just 8 GW — a widening gap that could lock in excess capacity for years. New analysis with @creacleanair.bsky.social 👇

Our upcoming data release on February 10, 2026, will include +35k wind and +103k solar assets worldwide — all part of our open-access energy infrastructure datasets. The updated wind & solar data and briefing drops Feb 10 via @globalenergymon.bsky.social #renewables #wind #solar 🧪💡☀️💨

🇺🇸 The U.S. has surpassed 🇨🇳 China as the world’s largest developer of gas-fired power. GEM data show 252 GW in development in the U.S., compared with 153 GW in China — even as China added a record 22.4 GW in 2025. 🔗 globalenergymonitor.org/projects/glo...

GEM’s new interactive briefing traces one LNG supply chain under construction, linking gas fields, pipelines, export terminals + power plants across three countries. Drawing on our data, it shows how regional gas projects are linked & why that matters.

Gas supply chains are global — even when they look local. Our new interactive brief traces one LNG pathway under construction from the U.S. Permian Basin, through Mexico, to Malaysia’s power sector. See how regional decisions connect & what’s at stake: globalenergymonitor.org/us-mexico-ma...

Our latest GMET update links 1,700+ #methane plumes near #CoalMines to specific sites — w/nearly 90% tied to named mines or identifiable mine infrastructure. A clearer picture of where emissions originate & where mitigation is urgently needed. See the data:

Iraq leads the world in oil-fired power development, with 84% of all planned capacity — nearly 39 GW. If built, it would double current capacity, even as many MENA countries shift toward large-scale renewables. globalenergymonitor.org/projects/glo...

🚢 NEW TRACKER: #LNG doesn’t just move through pipelines on land — it moves across oceans. For the first time, GEM is tracking LNG carriers worldwide in its new LNG Carrier Tracker, developed w/Solutions for Our Climate. 🔗 Explore the tracker: globalenergymonitor.org/projects/glo...

High-res satellite data shows methane plumes repeatedly coming from mine systems — ventilation shafts, degasification equipment, and other infrastructure. GMET’s update links these detections with mine-level mitigation data to show where action is missing. globalenergymonitor.org/projects/glo...

A PECR report exposes how private equity’s fossil fuel investments are unjustly pushing climate risks onto the Global South. And due to limited disclosure, investors—including public pensions & university endowments—are often kept in the dark. ➡️ www.peclimaterisks.org/reports/glob...

GEM’s granular research into China’s power sector is essential to global progress toward clean-energy goals, but the now-16-person team began with just a few people and a bold vision. www.linkedin.com/pulse/tracki...

Africa’s proposed hydrogen-linked renewables boom is massive — almost the size of the world’s entire solar buildout in H1 '25. ~350 GW of prospective capacity across the continent - nearly 10× what’s operating today. But much of is far from becoming reality. globalenergymonitor.org/report/europ...

Coal mines emit far more methane than what satellites currently capture, but GMET’s new analysis offers the most detailed view yet of equipment-level emission sources. A step forward for transparency, enforcement, and methane mitigation planning. More here →

Iraq now has nearly 39 GW of oil and gas power in development — ranking fourth worldwide. More than half will burn oil, and if built, it would double today’s capacity. The buildout reflects efforts to close a persistent gap between supply and demand. globalenergymonitor.org/projects/glo...

Latest briefing from our Global Solar and Wind Power Trackers reveal that more than 60% of prospective solar and wind capacity in Africa is for hydrogen production.

Today's FT Big Read: India's steel production has boomed in the past decade. But that growth comes with significant costs. “We are creating a big carbon monster that we will not be able to tackle in the future,” says @globalenergymon.bsky.social's Henna Khadeeja - on.ft.com/4oVZzWI

Europe’s green hydrogen ambitions are pulling Africa’s renewables pipeline. 61% of planned wind + solar capacity across the continent — 216 GW — is geared toward hydrogen for export, not local use. A huge buildout on paper, but far from becoming reality. 🔗 globalenergymonitor.org/report/europ...

#PrivateEquity is powering the #AI boom — w/gas. New research links the world’s biggest PE firms to a global fleet of gas-fired power plants spanning 27 countries and 82 million tonnes CO₂ a year. The digital gold rush runs on fossil fuel. #ClimateFinance www.peclimaterisks.org/private-equi...

W/216 GW of Africa’s planned wind + solar tied to hydrogen for export, the stakes are high & much still unproven. Most projects are early-stage or speculative, raising questions about who benefits & what actually gets built. Learn more in our newest brief: globalenergymonitor.org/report/europ...

New analysis: 20 #PrivateEquity firms now control 60 GW of gas power — emitting 82 Mt CO₂ each year, about as much as 17 million U.S. homes. As #AI drives up electricity demand, PE is betting big on gas. #ClimateCrisis Learn more: www.peclimaterisks.org/private-equi...

Do fossil fuel companies invest in renewables as much as they say they do? Are they part of the solution yet? No. They might pledge to do better, but new @globalenergymon.bsky.social research shows just 1.8% of renewable assets in 🇪🇺 are owned by these companies. www.euronews.com/green/2025/1...

Nominee companies act as middlemen, masking the real investors behind Australia’s biggest polluters. With no regulation of nominee shareholding, fossil fuel ownership remains hidden — and accountability out of reach. 📊 Full analysis: globalenergymonitor.org/report/the-f...

🌍 The top 250 oil and gas companies own only 1.42% of operating global renewable energy projects. Despite pledges to do so, these companies are not investing in a sustainable future. #GreenFakes Learn more: www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Australia, companies with #ownership obscured through nominee structures account for 23 million tonnes of #fossilfuel CO2 #emissions every year — about 18% of the national total. The interactive data tools are great too! You can dig into asset level #emissions and #ownership
