“There’s no business interest for the coal sector to carry on, because increasingly the market will trend towards using renewables, because it’s getting cheaper and cheaper” www.carbonbrief.org/ma-jun-no-bu...

The BBC featured our operating utility-scale + distributed solar data for China in their article today. In fact, China’s total solar capacity is about five times that of its closest peer, the United States. @globalenergymon.bsky.social #solar #renewables ☀️🔌💡 www.bbc.co.uk/news/resourc...

Utility-scale batteries are transforming power systems 🔋 Paired with solar, mega-batteries store energy for nights & peak demand—boosting flexibility and energy security 🔌💡 from @iea.org #Solar #EnergyTransition

There is no verified evidence that popular generative AI tools like Gemini or Copilot are delivering “material, verifiable, and substantial” emissions reductions — despite repeated industry claims that AI can help fight climate change. Report from @ketanjoshi.co: ketanjoshi.co/2026/02/17/b...

🚨 NEW REPORT & DATA RELEASE 🚨 GEM's (@globalenergymon.bsky.social) data shows a major surge in the global clean power pipeline in 2025! ☀️💨🔌💡🧪 #energy #renewables #solar #wind #opendata Read our latest report here: globalenergymonitor.org/report/globa... A short 🧵 with main findings below!

Today in the Rockaways, I stood with NYCHA residents to announce a $38M investment to bring clean, reliable heat pumps to Beach 41st Street Houses.

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 🧪💡☀️💨

Today's @carbonbrief.org explainer on gas in China featured @aiqun.bsky.social: "With the rapid expansion of renewables and ongoing geopolitical uncertainties, I don’t foresee a bright future for gas power.” 🔌 www.carbonbrief.org/explainer-wh...

Google and Microsoft are both doing studies about building several data centers and the nuclear reactors needed to power them in my area. We have been in a drought for several years and if these are built our water tables will be drained.

Copernicus reported that 2025 was the third warmest year on record. Global temperatures from the past three years averaged more than 1.5°C above the pre-industrial level 🧪💡 climate.copernicus.eu/copernicus-2...

My first shot at generating an energy-related meme. The times have changed for the big tech acquisitions 🔌💡 pv-magazine-usa.com/2026/01/02/g...

Absolutely disgusting.

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.

One of MANY new solar projects we're adding to the Global Solar Power Tracker in February 2026. Stade Abdoulaye Wade Stadium in Senegal. That's pretty cool 😎 maps.app.goo.gl/UdFixfsXXQYj...

IEA (@iea.org) reported that annual solar PV capacity additions average 540 GW to 2035 in the Current Policies Scenario (CPS). The chart below illustrates the estimated trend through 2050 ☀️💡 Read more: www.iea.org/reports/worl...

Latest from Reuters using @globalenergymon.bsky.social data! Two-thirds of new power projects are solar & wind 🌞💨 Around 950 GW of clean capacity is being built—345 GW of that from solar alone. www.reuters.com/markets/comm...

A nice portrait of IEA's (@iea.org) Executive Director Fatih Birol -- “the world’s most boring man” - in The New York Times today. www.nytimes.com/2025/11/10/c...

E3G (@e3g.bsky.social) reported that solar and wind accounted for 87% of new capacity additions in 2024, while coal made up just 3%! ☀️💡 www.e3g.org/publications...

According to the latest UN NDC Synthesis Report, updated pledges from 64 countries cover about 30% of global emissions and would cut emissions by only 17% below 2019 levels by 2035. The report highlights the need for more ambitious climate targets.

Africa gets more sunshine than anywhere else on Earth, yet it had just 21.5 gigawatts of installed solar capacity in 2024. By comparison, China added 198 gigawatts between January and May this year alone ☀️💡 edition.cnn.com/world/africa...

Just read this piece by @oykusenlen.bsky.social — brilliant! Türkiye’s #COP31 bid rings hollow without stronger ambition. Cutting solar + wind goals from 120GW to 82GW by 2035 risks missing a huge opportunity. Restoring bold renewables goals would show real leadership ☀️💡 www.e3g.org/news/turkiye...

Global energy storage is projected to grow 23% year-over-year in 2025, according to BloombergNEF. China & the U.S. remain dominant, but emerging markets are scaling up as they plan for decarbonized grids. #Storage #EnergyTransition www.edie.net/global-energ...

The OECD reported that solar generation increased 22.1% YoY, reaching 119.2 TWh. Solar accounts for 11.6% of total generation right now. 🇹🇷 Türkiye led Europe’s solar surge with a 46.3% increase (+1.7 TWh) — the region’s biggest absolute gain. #Solar #Renewables #Türkiye #OECD #CleanEnergy

IRENA's latest report reveals that global renewables hit a record 582 GW added in 2024 — a 15% increase — but we’re slightly off pace to triple capacity by 2030. Francesco La Camera told Reuters the target remains within reach with the right momentum. 💡⚡️ www.reuters.com/sustainabili...

CAN International published the Renewable Energy Tracker report today. There's a great discussion on how distributed solar provides direct benefits to people and eases pressure on land. There's so much untapped potential for rooftop PV ☀️💡 #JustTransition Report: climatenetwork.org/resource/ren...

A new Nature article using GEM data (@globalenergymon.bsky.social) found that the top 250 oil and gas firms own just 2% of the world's renewable power. #renewables 💡🧪 Article: www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Over the next five years, we'll add 4,600 GW of renewables — equal to all power in China, the EU, and Japan combined. Nearly 80% will come from solar PV, as rooftops & off-grid systems boom worldwide. TL;DR: Solar’s moving fast — really fast. ☀️

IEA's (@iea.org) Renewables 2025 report is out. This year, solar PV is expected to account for almost 80% of all new renewable power capacity worldwide — maintaining its dominant lead. Another record year ahead: 750–840 GW total renewables, driven by the sun. ☀️💡 Report: www.iea.org/reports/rene...

Bloomberg says AI data centers are driving up U.S. wholesale power prices — in some regions, electricity now costs up to 267% more than it did five years ago. www.bloomberg.com/graphics/202...

The Former Vice President Al Gore: “Of all the new electricity installed in the world last year, 93% was renewables, mostly solar.” #ClimateWeekNYC @climaterealityproject.org @globalenergymon.bsky.social

Project Drawdown’s (@projectdrawdown.bsky.social) new free portal Drawdown Explorer fills a significant gap by turning climate science into actionable insights! Excited to dig in after #ClimateWeekNYC! Great presentation and launch by @globalecoguy.bsky.social 👏 @globalenergymon.bsky.social

Starting the second day of the #ClimateWeekNYC at the Nest Climate Campus! Ping me if you are around!

Great discussion on timely climate communications at CET’s Moving from Data to Dialogue to Doing panel. “It’s like reminding someone about a seatbelt 5 seconds before driving, not 5 minutes earlier.” How do we bring that urgency to the energy transition? @globalenergymon.bsky.social

First day of #ClimateWeekNYC with @globalenergymon.bsky.social! I’m excited to follow several events on renewables, energy transition, and environmental justice 🌍 I’ll post my reflections and highlights throughout the week!!

A #JustTransition is only possible if renewable energy companies respect human rights. Our latest research on 35 leading companies shows the sector is making progress on respect for rights & shared prosperity – but major gaps remain.

Community solar is key to passing the benefits of solar energy to renters and homeowners without the means to invest in rooftop solar. ILSR (@ilsr.bsky.social) tracks the steady increase in community solar programs across the US ☀️☀️ ilsr.org/articles/com...

SEIA & Wood Mackenzie reported that Solar and Storage dominate new power additions in H1 2025. Solar accounted for 56% of all new electricity-generating capacity added to the US grid. Combined, solar and storage accounted for 82% of new capacity in the first half of the year.

Gavin's analysis is interesting! Solar’s pipeline is shrinking. 🌞 U.S. developers have lowered planned solar capacity from ~112 GW in 2024 to ~92 GW in 2025. Solar still makes up a big slice of the future grid—but policy shifts, higher costs & grid bottlenecks are slowing growth.

High costs and long timelines have stalled nuclear power worldwide. Nearly 40% of all nuclear projects ever proposed have been cancelled — 566 GW in total, more than the world’s entire operating & retired fleets combined. Learn more in our latest analysis: globalenergymonitor.org/report/nucle...

I just read this brilliant article on @carbonbrief.org by @joshgabbatiss.bsky.social and @mollylempriere.carbonbrief.org 👏👏👏 ❌ Solar power is an ‘unreliable source of energy’ ❌ Solar power is ‘a serious threat to agriculture and food security’ interactive.carbonbrief.org/factcheck/so...
