Hot off the press: @Ute_Collier presents the findings of @IRENA‘s World Energy Transition Outlook at #REMforum, published yesterday. Investment in #renewables is growing, but still outpaced by investment in #fossilfuels, undermining the 1.5 degree target.

61.2% of voters in 🇨🇭 canton of Appenzell Ausserrhoden approve progressive #energy law, including 40% #renewables target by 2035. While the law was supported by a broad majority in parliament, an oil firm from outside the canton had launched a referendum. https://t.co/7vQoxQ6rzl

Solar #PV is poised for dynamic growth in Switzerland, in fact it is THE infrastructure investment opportunity of the 21st century. Why there is still a case for diversification: My interview with #srf #10vor10. https://t.co/6aObIk2769 via @srfnews

Why are people living up to 460 km away from a planned #windpower project in 🇨🇭 concerned about noise? A puzzle Nathalie Dällenbach and I are trying to solve in our latest paper on #SocialAcceptance, out now in Energy Research and Social Science #ERSS. https://t.co/9QgGQHL9Mo
