Six-fold rise in renewables must to limit temperature rise: Report
Increasing the pace of global renewable energy adoption by at least a factor of six — critical for meeting energy-related emission reduction needs of the Paris Climate Agreement — can limit global temperature rise to two degrees, the International Renewable Energy Agency (IRENA)’s long-term renewable energy outlook said on Tuesday. New Delhi: Increasing the pace […]
Lower solar capacity addition at 4-4.5 GW estimated in FY2019: ICRA
Weighted average solar bid tariff during CY 2017 declined sharply to Rs3/unit from Rs5/unit in CY 2016. Going by the tendering and award of solar projects in last 12-15 months’ period, a 40% decline of about 4-4.5 GW of solar capacity addition is expected in FY2019 as compared to FY2018. As per an ICRA note, […]

Enhancing the Impact of Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy Policies
Together, energy efficiency and renewable energy will need to deliver more than three quarters of the emission reductions needed in the next decades to reach global climate targets. To achieve this goal, these technologies will need to be deployed much faster than they are now, requiring a more integrated approach between energy efficiency and renewables. […]
