The flash floods in #Nepal resulting in tragic loss of life also highlight #concentration #risks in #electricity systems based on glacier/snow-fed rivers. The rock-ice collapse & debris flow in #Trishuli corridor impacted around 10% of Nepal's #power #generation capacity. The tragedy highlights the need for designing multi-hazard #resilience in power systems, diversify #energy generation mix to integrate #solar #EnergyStorage & possibly #WindEnergy. For future #power system assets need to strengthen early #warning & #emergency response & explore #innovative #finance structures such as #CAT bonds #parametric insurance. https://t.co/zFvHVi7aPi

Joining @APEC #Energy Think Tank forum #Dalian invited by 2026 #China APEC presidency and sharing @IRENA analysis and perspectives on #EnergySecurity #Electrification & #Renewables for #APEC member economies that are #IRENA members. Also held discussions with National Energy Administration China on cooperation with #IRENA

Excellent example by @TheEconomist of @IRENA member #Romania driving #solar #power and #EnergyStorage development! Romania is accelerating #EnergyTransition through encouraging co-siting of #renewables & #BESS, CfD #auctions & introducing hefty financial guarantees for capacity auctions to avoid speculative projects from grid hoarding. Importantly, Romania also reduced permitting time by entrenching deadlines into law, digitising procedures, removing planning bottlenecks, cutting downtime for utility-scale projects, prosumer and rooftop systems! https://t.co/P0EnfcaswO

The global #energytransition is not following the same blueprint. 🎙️In the latest 'All Things Renewable' episode, @IRENA's expert explains how each country's #TransitionPathway is shaped by different factors. He also shares examples of countries' unique pathways leading to local development. Listen to the whole conversation▶️ https://t.co/IxkxaMMNEl

#Electrification action plan by @EU_Commission a major step towards #energy #independance and #competitiveness! Doubling Electricity share in tfes to 46% by 2040 is significant & aligns with @IRENA roadmap of 35% by 2035 & @turkiyecop31 35 by 35 priority https://t.co/zROEJFgvzF
