American expert Professor John H. Perkins said that replacing fossil fuels with renewable energy requires not only continued investment, but also changes in investment decisions. He was speaking at the Professor David Pimentel Memorial Lecture during the ongoing three-day International Conference on Ecology in India. The conference is hosted by Sher-Kashmir University of Agricultural Science and Technology (SKUAST)-Jammu.

The Ministry of Electricity said the government is considering about 233 gigawatts of renewable energy capacity across the country by 2030 at the latest. Transmission system planning to integrate an additional 52 GW of potential REZs (Renewable Energy Zones) by 2026-27 has been undertaken. Members of all political parties attended the meeting. Members were told that by December 2013, all five regional grids in India had been synchronized to the national grid, with the remote Leh region connected to the system in January 2019.

The World Meteorological Organization (WMO) says global investment in renewable energy should triple by 2050. By 2020, 87% of the electricity generated by thermal, nuclear, and hydropower systems worldwide will be directly dependent on the supply of water. Climate change is jeopardizing global energy security, according to WMO's 2022 State of Climate Services report. Africa could become a major renewable energy player in the future, according to a report by the World Meteorological Organization (WMO). By 2050, global electricity demand will be met mainly by renewable energy sources, and solar energy will be the largest single energy source. Africa has 60% of the best solar resources in the world, but only 1% of installed PV capacity.

Avaada Group has signed a long-term contract with Israel's Airtouch Solar to maintain solar modules at its Rajasthan and Maharashtra plants using robotic cleaning systems. The target market for robotic cleaning solutions is estimated to be $11 billion by 2025. Avaada says 95% of the market currently operates without robotic cleaning solutions.

Aryapu panchayat in Puttur in Dakshina Kannada may be the first such project in the state. The installation cost of the solar panels is Rs 4.1 lakh. It takes up to 3.5 hours to fill a 50,000-liter tank. During peak monsoon periods, especially in July, pumping water can be a challenge.

Mumbai's Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj International Airport (CSMIA) has fully switched to green energy to meet its energy consumption needs. About 5% of CSMIA's electricity needs come from its on-site solar power generation, with the remaining 95% from other green energy sources such as hydro and wind. The airport is committed to continuously reducing energy consumption and carbon footprint through various initiatives.

Mandi, a researcher at the Indian Institute of Technology, uses microwaves to recycle polymer composites to make wind turbine blades. They say this method is fast and sustainable compared to currently used methods such as landfilling and heat recovery. India is the fourth largest installed country of wind energy systems, with a total installed wind capacity of 40.893 GW as of July 2022. A team of researchers at IIT Mandi, India, has developed a fast and environmentally friendly method to recycle fibers from composite materials used to make wind turbine blades. No harsh chemicals are used in the extraction process, but green chemistry methods are used. Compared to virgin fibers, recycled glass fibers retain nearly 99% of their strength and more than 90% of other mechanical properties.

BHP Billiton Group Ltd raised its long-term demand forecast for steel as the global shift towards decarbonising power generation will boost demand for it. The miner expects global steel production to increase by 42 million tonnes and 76 million tonnes in 2030 and 2050, much of which is due to demand for solar and wind equipment. BHP Billiton is one of the world's largest iron ore producers.

Renewable energy is seen as vital in global efforts to combat climate change. But so far they are acting to limit the amount the world turns to fossil fuels to meet its energy needs. Global demand increased by 389 terawatt hours (TWh) in the first half of 2022, while wind, solar and hydropower combined increased by 416 TWh.

Adani Renewable Energy Holdings IV has established three new renewable energy business subsidiaries. The newly formed entity is its subordinate subsidiary. The main objective of the new subsidiary is to generate, develop, convert, distribute, transmit, sell, supply any type of electricity or electrical energy using wind, solar or other renewable energy sources.
