    The Solar Boom in Developing Nations: Fast, Chaotic, and Unequal (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    Look at satellite images of Pakistan and you will be struck by the number of solar panels dotting rooftops and balconies across its major cities. Solar is the single largest source of electricity in Pakistan, generating around a quarter of the country’s power during peak months. A decade ago, it was contributing less than 1 percent. The solar boom was not driven by a major subsidy program. Rather, households and businesses largely drove it themselves in response to unreliable and expensive elect

    From Indigenous Loss, a Potent Legal Argument on Climate (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    Last year, the International Court of Justice unanimously ruled that countries have a legal obligation to limit greenhouse gas emissions. The decision was the culmination of a years-long campaign launched by a group of law students in the Pacific island nation of Vanuatu. The landmark opinion, which said countries’ failure to address emissions from fossil fuels and other sources could carry legal consequences, provides a potentially powerful new tool for communities, organizations, or government

    Data Centers are Helping Fuel a U.S. Battery Boom (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    Across the U.S., tech companies have courted backlash for using polluting gas generators to power massive new data centers. But energy industry data shows that in addition to building out natural gas, firms are adding huge amounts of battery storage. The energy demands of data centers are so great that large projects may need approval from regulators before connecting to the power grid. But instead of waiting for that approval, tech companies keen to build the infrastructure for A.I. are often b

    In Africa, a Growing Underground Solar Buildout (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    Households and businesses are driving a solar boom in Africa, where rooftop arrays and other small systems account for the bulk of new solar installations. But this rapid buildout, which is driving solar additions to record levels, is largely unaccounted for in official statistics, analysts say. “The rapid spread of distributed solar in sub-Saharan Africa is an underreported success story,” write analysts at the energy think tank Ember and the African Tech Futures Lab. “However, since African co
