AMPIN Energy Transition will supply solar power to medical device manufacturer Poly Medicure’s five plants in Faridabad from its 75 MWp solar park in Kurungawali Sirsa, Haryana.

A report by the CEEW Green Finance Centre (CEEW-GFC) says 60% of municipal bonds by value issued so far could have been labelled green but were not, missing cost-saving and investor opportunities. It recommends targeted reforms and structured support to help municipalities access climate finance at scale.

Governments worldwide are enacting policies that encourage investment in green technologies. As businesses recognise the long-term benefits of transitioning to renewable sources, private capital is increasingly flowing into innovative projects that promise sustainable returns.

Global renewables capacity grew by a record 585 GW in 2024, with solar accounting for 452 GW, according to the International Renewable Energy Agency (IRENA). Solar and wind together made up 96.6% of the increase.

AMPIN Energy Transition has secured an investment of $50 million from Siemens Financial Services, the financing arm of Siemens AG, to scale its renewable energy portfolio in India.

Decarbonizing energy use in industry is a core part of India’s sustainable development agenda. Real-time ESG monitoring is a powerful approach to achieve this goal, with advantages that go beyond environmental compliance to operational excellence and competitive advantage.

Waaree Renewable Technologies has received a Letter of Award (LOA) from its promoter company Waaree Energies to set up a 170 MW AC (255 MW DC) ground-mount solar capacity on turnkey basis.

As the global transition toward sustainable energy intensifies, building-integrated photovoltaics (BIPV) has emerged as a critical innovation in merging renewable energy with architectural design. The recently published guidebook “Building-Integrated Photovoltaics: A Technical Guidebook,” edited by IEA PVPS Task 15 experts Nuria Martín Chivelet, Costa Kapsis, and Francesco Frontini, offers a comprehensive resource for architects, engineers, and urban planners looking to integrate BIPV into the built environment. This article explores the book’s key insights, including applications, challenges, and future pathways.

Digital adoption across the renewable energy value chain reveals a stark imbalance. Operations and maintenance (O&M) has embraced digitalization most enthusiastically, with SCADA systems and IoT-enabled devices revolutionizing efficiency through real-time monitoring and resource optimization. However, engineering, procurement, and construction (EPC) processes remain surprisingly under-digitized despite their critical importance.

BloombergNEF reports the world installed nearly 600 GW of solar power in 2024, closely aligning with projections that annual global solar installations will surpass 1 TW within the next few years. Although projections for 2025 currently fall short of that pace, early forecasts often underestimate actual deployment.
