All I want for Christmas is one terawatt of solar deployed annually
As the world grapples with the escalating impacts of climate change, our hopes rely on the innovation and implementation of technical solutions, particularly solar, as we scale toward annual deployments of 1 terawatt and beyond.
Driving down cost of solar, key to unlocking a green hydrogen future
Reducing the cost of solar electricity will be the key to unlocking the next chapter of the energy transition: a green hydrogen economy, according to Jim Tyler, CEO of solar technology company Erthos.
Utility-scale solar and storage project updates across the U.S.

Global investment in clean energy nearly doubles that of fossil fuels
For every dollar invested in fossil fuels, 1.7 dollars are invested in clean technologies. Five years ago, it was a one-to-one ratio, said the International Energy Agency.
In 2021 renewable energy use reached an all-time high, but so did CO2 emissions
Global energy-related carbon dioxide emissions rose by 6% in 2021 mostly due to increased coal use, but renewable energy sources and nuclear power provided a higher share of global electricity generation than coal in 2021, according to IEA report.
Three vastly divergent solar deployment projections
Differing renewable energy projections from IEA, S&P Global Market Intelligence, and Rystad Energy range from down 50% to nearly doubling in a year.
Record solar numbers expected this year but IEA highlights pricing concern
The Paris-based body expects the world will have installed almost 160 GW of solar this year, a record number, but still not enough to keep the prospect of a net zero global economy by mid century in sight.
