Eskom Transformed: Achieving a Just Energy Transition for South Africa
A 2020 report which presents the case for a modern national power utility - a New Eskom. Unfortunately, in the public discourse around energy in South Africa, the word ‘Eskom' has become an expletive. To suggest that a reformed publicly utility can and must play a new and perhaps expanded role in shaping the country’s energy future as it transitions away from coal sounds ludicrous. But this is exactly what the situation demands, and this report explains why.

Solar Energy as an Early Just Transition Opportunity for Coal-Bearing States in India
A 2022 article which shows that following current policies, by the end of the decade, coal-bearing states will likely sink deeper into carbon lock-ins, while the rest of India, especially western and southern states could become increasingly decarbonized.

A report presenting data relevant to the distribution of the implemented decentralized solar photovoltaic projects in Lebanon, mainly privately owned systems. The report collect data on solar PV market growth in Lebanon over time through various indicators such as installed capacity, energy generation, number and type of projects, value of investments, monetary and environmental savings, financial incentives, and geographical distribution. Prepared by the Lebanese Center for Energy Conservation (LCEC).

Hot Reports

Covid-19 and a Just Transition in India's Coal Mining Sector The COVID 19 pandemic hit India hard in early 2020, with negative GDP growth and a surge in unemployment. In the energy sector, coal fired power generation was already under pressure from overcapacity, low electricity demand growth, and increasingly competitive renewables.
Considerations for a Just and Equitable Energy Transition As the energy transition accelerates, it is our responsibility, it is our opportunity, to ensure that in addition to contributing to a healthy planet by replacing fossil fuels with clean energy sources, this is accomplished in a just and equitable manner providing prosperity for all.
