🇻🇳 Vietnam has dominated Southeast Asia’s leaderboard as the largest solar power market for some time now… but official statistics generally fail to capture growth in small rooftop solar PV systems. Why does this matter? www.transitionzero.org/insights/map...

JUST LAUNCHED: new reports show nearly half of ASEAN’s coal fleet can be retired with existing financial solutions⏫ These #CTCReports outline pathways to accelerate coal transitions while keeping power reliable and affordable. Read them here: poweringpastcoal.org/strands-of-w...

These papers really helped us roll up our sleeves and get into very practical challenges & solutions to enable more coal retirement and to take a nuanced look at the role of coal during the transition. Huge kudos to the teams at @rockymtninst.bsky.social and @transitionzero.org for authoring these.

🎉 We’re proud to have authored a technical note for the Coal Transition Commission: ‘From Flex to Phase-Out’, which examines the role of coal flexibility in energy transition strategies: poweringpastcoal.org/news/coal-tr... ❓ But what exactly IS coal flex? 👉🏻 www.transitionzero.org/coal-flexibi...

🇮🇳 In this update to our CFE 24/7 study in India, we expand the technology palette to include green hydrogen-fired turbines. The main takeaway?

🎉 We’re very excited to see findings from our recent report modelling the impacts of 24/7 CFE in Taiwan covered by major publications including TVBS, United Daily News, Central News Agency and Chinese Television System. ⭐ news.tvbs.com.tw/english/3022... 👉🏻 Read the report transitionzero.org/cfe

Saudi Arabia’s solar buildout is accelerating fast. Our data shows a 22% jump in detected capacity this quarter, reaching 10.8 GW. ☀️ And it isn't alone... we noted a 5.6% increase in capacity worldwide. 🌐 Dive into the full Q3 2025 update 👉 www.transitionzero.org/insights/tra...

As promised, today we’re adding two more countries to Scenario Builder: 🇻🇳 Vietnam: a market full of surprises and ever-rising decarbonisation ambitions. 🇹🇭 Thailand: at a pivotal moment to redefine the role of natural gas. Access Scenario Builder here 👉🏻 www.transitionzero.org/products/sce...

📈 Pakistan has emerged as one of the world’s fastest-growing solar markets, but comprehensive data on actual installations remains limited. But tracking small-scale solar across an entire country isn’t easy. TransitionZero needed a faster, scalable way to see how solar is really spreading...

⚡ We’re partnering with Google.org to make clean energy planning faster, smarter, and more accessible across Asia. Together, we’re building the tools and capacity needed to accelerate the transition to affordable, reliable, and sustainable power. Read the announcement here 👉 lnkd.in/ejW87Bs3

TransitionZero is proud to partner with Green Grids Initiative to accelerate the delivery of grid infrastructure that enables countries to meet their climate commitments. Read all the details here 👉🏻 www.transitionzero.org/press/green-...

🇹🇼 In 2024, the Taiwanese government raised its 2030 emissions reduction target from 24% to 28% below 2005 levels. The country faces both opportunities and obstacles in shifting to a grid powered by low-cost, variable renewable energy.

🇹🇼 How could a subset of commercial and industrial consumers using 24/7 carbon free energy help Taiwan achieve their emissions reduction goals? Our report will be released tomorrow. 🔎 Meanwhile, now is a great time to read our explainer on 24/7 CFE 👉 www.transitionzero.org/insights/wha...

🇲🇾 Malaysia intends to peak emissions around 2040 and reach net zero by 2050. With a rapidly industrialising economy and a grid powered largely by coal and gas, the move toward greater solar, storage and other renewables marks both a challenge and an opportunity for the clean energy transition. ☀️🔋

🇲🇾 Coming soon: our report on how 24/7 carbon free energy could help Malaysia (with its untapped renewable potential and improving regulatory landscape) strengthen its position as a regional energy transition leader. Meanwhile, check out our explainer 👉 www.transitionzero.org/insights/wha...
