‘Fossil fuel giants finally in the crosshairs’: Cop30 avoids total failure with last-ditch deal It took some oblique wording, but Saudi Arabia made a last-minute decision to sign deal that marks departure for Cop

India has reached 50% non-fossil energy capacity five years ahead of its NDC target. India has already reached 50 per cent non-fossil energy capacity. And amidst all of these transitions, Solar has been a gamechanging move as discussed in the COP30!

"Each year above 1.5C will hammer economies, deepen inequalities and inflict irreversible damage – with developing countries that did least to cause it hit hardest. That is not solidarity. It is moral failure – and deadly negligence,” António Guterres said.

The article portrays the solar energy industry as: "a completely unregulated sector from a labour point of view". Labour precarity is still the hidden side of the otherwise 'green energy transition'!

Grateful to present my work at Regional Futures conference at UCL @uclgeography.bsky.social 🌍✨
So much to learn, share & take back, from thought-provoking panels to inspiring conversations in between.
Huge thanks to @ayonadatta.bsky.social & the team for making this space so rich & welcoming!

Spain’s unprecedented power outage sparks a blackout blame game over green energy An abrupt and widespread blackout, one of Europe's worst in living memory, affected the entire Iberian Peninsula on April 28.

Spain's massive blackout reignites debate over renewable energy reliability. As the nation pushes for 81% renewables by 2030, critics question grid stability. PM Sánchez remains committed to the green transition.
