The coronavirus crisis will cause global wind additions in 2020 to decline by 4.9GW when compared to Wood Mackenzie’s previous projections. Due to other market changes since Wood Mackenzie’s Q4 2019 update, total forecast wind additions for 2020 is now expected to be 73GW.
The margin of error for meeting project returns has narrowed substantially in recent years. Competition for offtake contracts in wind and solar that secure the bottom for investors has become intense. This means that developers are increasingly taking more power delivery risks in the near-term to win contracts, while backloading their own returns into the distant future.
As energy companies worldwide grapple with the economic impact of the coronavirus pandemic, long-term planning continues. Ahead of the release of the 14th five-year plan early next year, recent announcements from several key players in the country’s power sector indicate China is considering a major investment spree in coal-fired generation.
The coronavirus outbreak is having a seismic effect. How is it affecting gas, power and chemicals markets?
With all carbon-intensive industries firmly in the crosshairs of international emission reduction targets, the steel industry has no choice but to investigate low or zero-carbon emission technologies. Enter green steel and green hydrogen – will this duo be the end for metallurgical coal and carbon-based steel production?
The Task Force on Climate-related Financial Disclosures released recommendations years ago but getting to grips with the finer details remains a challenge for companies.
Despite early success, Section 201 solar tariffs on imported cells and modules could now limit market growth.
I asked our experts what they believe governments and companies should be doing to ensure that they emerge stronger from the crisis.
The US microgrid market is growing, with a record 546 small power grids installed during 2019. Projects below 5MW are increasingly attractive to a wide range of investors.
Current low gas prices are supporting demand growth in the sector and encouraging pro-gas policies and infrastructure developments
Halting the pandemic and rebuilding economies are the most urgent goals for the immediate future. Wood Mackenzie estimates that almost US$20 trillion – equivalent to a quarter of global GDP – will go towards stimulus packages, public health spending and delivering a vaccine over the next 12-18 months alone.
The Asia Pacific power generation market will attract US$1.5 trillion of investment in the next 10 years. So what are the opportunities in the world’s fastest-growing power market?
Despite being both the world’s largest energy market and largest carbon emitter, China’s position has long been that responsibility to reduce global emissions rests with rich countries: you broke it, you fix it.
The UK has an opportunity to be at the forefront of the global hydrogen economy – but it calls for rapid technology scale-up.
The 2020 elections bring US energy policy to a fork in the road. Trump offers continuity, with some further easing of regulations on the oil, gas and coal industries. Biden offers a return to the Obama administration’s strategy of using regulation to cut emissions, and more ambitious moves if the Democrats win control of Congress.
The energy transition raises many questions, including: how will we meet the flexibility requirements of evolving power systems? What role will hydrogen play in the new energy landscape? And can the energy transition’s materials needs be met?
In news articles, press releases, and industry presentations, 'Energy as a Service' is highlighted as a new business model driving microgrid deployment in the United States. Examples include leading developers and suppliers including Schneider Electric, Enchanted Rock, Siemens and others.
The reality is that Northeast Asia’s carbon neutral targets will be very difficult to meet by renewables alone, given the need to massively increase electrification. With the size of its future economy, the scale of the challenge is up to 10 times greater in China than Japan or South Korea. Given this, what will be the role of nuclear?
The UK’s offshore oil and gas industry has committed to cutting operational emissions in half by 2030 and achieving net zero production by 2050. Operators have taken significant steps towards decarbonisation – but achieving these goals will take leaps forward in technology, policy and investment.
Annual installs dropped 29% in 2020, but FIDs for new capacity hit an all-time high and a record number of alliances were formed. With the scale of ambition increasing, what will 2021 bring?
Japan’s power prices were on an unprecedented rally in the first two weeks of 2021. What’s behind these historical highs, and what does it mean for the energy transition?
At present, China accounts for almost 75% of global lithium-ion battery manufacturing capacity and this share is set to increase through the short term with its build-out of new facilities.
There is a dispute over whether the US Postal Service should buy EVs, but the private sector is pressing ahead with orders.
Developers need to manage an increasingly complex array of factors to ensure project success.
Global energy storage deployment surged 62% in 2020, and we expect the global market to grow 27-fold by 2030. But where will growth come from? What technologies will triumph? And what will it all cost?
Australia has one of the lowest renewables cost premiums over fossil fuel in the APAC region and renewables (solar and wind) account for a fifth of total power generation. However, this has caused transmission constraints and put pressure on grid reliability. Australian utilities and regulators are looking to battery storage as a solution.
The ongoing growth in wind and solar capacity in Europe is contributing to the emergence of an increasingly volatile and short-term spot market for electricity. How will trading dynamics evolve?
Will falling costs secure solar’s dominance in power? Can Europe slash its emissions by 2030? Will China win the clean energy race? What would an accelerated energy transition mean for oil and gas prices? Find out in our Horizons recap.
The EU’s target to cut emissions to 55% below 1990 levels by 2030 clearly acknowledges that decarbonisation cannot wait. But what will be needed to achieve near-term goals over the next decade? What are the key enablers and drivers in play?
An increasingly dynamic low-carbon hydrogen market has seen a deluge of government support, corporate commitments, announced projects and even bystander intrigue over the past 18 months. Ben Gallagher outlines five drivers of the green hydrogen boom.
