Achieving the 2°C goal of the Paris Agreement will require more than simply avoiding carbon. To cap global warming at 1.5°C or even 2°C, carbon removal will be essential. Research from global natural resources consultancy Wood Mackenzie, a Verisk business (Nasdaq:VRSK), shows the key to effective large-scale carbon removal is unlocking potential economies of scale through basin-wide carbon capture and storage (CCS), effectively providing a community answer to a global problem.
Asia Pacific renewables (wind and solar) generation investments could double to US$1.3 trillion over the current decade to 2030 compared to the previous decade (2011 – 2020), says Wood Mackenzie, a Verisk business (Nasdaq:VRSK).
Wood Mackenzie, the leading provider of commercial intelligence for the world’s natural resources sector, today welcomes Quinbrook Infrastructure Partners as a development partner for the industry-leading Lens decision intelligence platform.
Wood Mackenzie is pleased to announce its acquisition of Roskill, a privately-owned company and leader in metals and materials supply chain intelligence.
Low-carbon hydrogen could become a US$50 billion to US$90 billion export industry for Australia in 2050, says Wood Mackenzie.
Japan is unlikely to reach a 46% reduction in emissions by 2030 compared to 2013 levels, according to research by Wood Mackenzie.
South Korea could be more ambitious with its 9th Basic Plan’s 2030 renewables capacity target, according to research by Wood Mackenzie.
According to Wood Mackenzie and the U.S. Energy Storage Association’s (ESA) latest ‘US Energy Storage Monitor’ report, 910 megawatt-hours (MWh) of new energy storage systems were brought online in Q1 2021. This is an increase of 252% over Q1 of last year, making it the biggest Q1 so far for the US storage market.
Wood Mackenzie experts comment on the recently announced Australia Budget 2021.
The UK government and the country’s oil and gas sector recently agreed a deal to leverage the upstream industry's capabilities, accelerate the energy transition and help the North Sea reach net zero by 2050.
Wood Mackenzie, a leading provider of commercial intelligence for the world's natural resources sector, has appointed Ben Hertz-Shargel to the role of Global Head of Grid Edge
Today's announcement outlining the UK's plan to set a legally binding 78% greenhouse gas emissions reduction target (on 1990 levels) through its Sixth Carbon Budget is another significant milestone on the road to its goal of net-zero emissions by 2050.
According to new research from Wood Mackenzie, the Americas region will overtake Asia Pacific by 2025 to lead the global storage market, with a total capacity of 371 GWh in 2030. Most of this growth will come from the US.
On 19 April, Australian PM Scott Morrison's commented on the country's road to net-zero emissions.
If the world acts decisively to limit global warming to 2°C by 2050, the scale of change will revolutionise the energy industry. Progressive electrification will squeeze the most polluting hydrocarbons out of the energy mix, nearly eliminating their markets. Oil demand will shrink, and with it, so will the power of major oil producers. Gas demand will remain resilient, but business models will need to evolve.
114 GW of new wind capacity was added globally in 2020, representing an 82% increase year-over-year (YoY), according to new research from Wood Mackenzie. This is the highest global annual installation total on record.
Up to the mid-2020s, approximately 70% of wind and solar development activity will be supported by auctions. However, data from across Europe highlights that market-level dynamics are shaping the approach of would-be developers. As such, auctions alone will not be enough to deliver much-needed capacity, according to Wood Mackenzie.
Sales of China’s new energy vehicles (NEV) and hybrid electric vehicles (HEV) combined are expected to rise 15-fold or more by 2035 with their share in total new car sales exceeding 80%, says Wood Mackenzie.
Wood Mackenzie’s latest report reveals that China’s march towards carbon neutrality by 2060 can complement both energy security and economic goals.
The U.S. solar industry grew 43% and installed a record 19.2 gigawatts (GWdc) of capacity in 2020, according to the ‘U.S. Solar Market Insight 2020 Year-in-Review’ report, released today by Wood Mackenzie and the Solar Energy Industries Association (SEIA).
Government funding and zero-emission vehicle regulations are strong drivers for commercial electric vehicle (EV) adoption in every region thus far, therefore reducing the primary barrier to commercial EV adoption: cost. This policy support will see the annual market value of electric bus and truck charging outlets pass the $200 billion mark by 2045, according to Wood Mackenzie.
Wood Mackenzie’s latest report shows that the global offshore wind operations and maintenance (O&M) market is expected to grow 16% annually to reach US$12 billion (€10 billion) by 2029.
Wood Mackenzie’s latest scenario report reveals that a significant increase in carbon pricing is needed to achieve the goals of limiting the rise in global temperatures to within 1.5 degrees Celsius.
According to Wood Mackenzie and the U.S. Energy Storage Association’s (ESA) latest ‘US Energy Storage Monitor’ report, 2,156 megawatt-hours (MWh) of new energy storage systems were brought online in Q4 2020. This is an increase of 182% from Q3 2020, making Q4 the new record quarter for U.S. storage.
BMW Group – which is comprised of BMW, Mini, Rolls-Royce and Zinoro – is targeting 7 million in battery electric vehicle (BEV) and plug-in hybrid electric vehicle (PHEV) stock by 2030, which would see over 1 million combined sales of these cars globally by the same date. However, Wood Mackenzie projects the company will only meet 61% (4.2 million) of that stock target by 2030.
Floating offshore could be the next frontier in wind power development in Asia Pacific, says Wood Mackenzie.
Europe’s new 2030 emissions target of a 55% reduction over 1990 levels has made it the undisputed global leader in climate ambition. However, with the region still a long way from achieving this rapidly approaching goal, dramatic changes are needed.
Wood Mackenzie acquired Greentech Media in 2016 and in 2019 integrated the GTM research practice into our ever-expanding Power and Renewables research team. Since then we have continued to use greentechmedia.com and GTM Squared as vehicles to present green technology and renewables news. Recognising the strategic importance of the energy transition to Wood Mackenzie, the time has now come for us to fully integrate Greentech Media.
