Two billion reasons: how Indonesia can get ahead of the net zero curve — TransitionZero

Closing old coal plants is a win-win for emissions and costs. Indonesia can accelerate power sector decarbonisation and save money by retiring its least profitable coal plants early. Doing so would give the country a head-start on its 2060 net zero target, according to TransitionZero’s groundbreakin

Our Coal-to-Clean Price Index (CCPI) https://t.co/4caKnP4TQW shows a narrowing cost gap between coal/gas in India vs RE storage. To tip the balance, India needs more ambitious RE storage auctions that procure capacity
Coal-to-Clean Price Index — TransitionZero

The Coal to Clean Price Index tracks the operating cost of coal and gas versus the new cost of new onshore wind or utility-scale solar PV plus four hours of battery storage in 25 countries.

India and China are trying to build consensus within G20 to let countries choose GHG reduction roadmaps instead of setting deadline to end fossil fuel use. Coal accounts for ~3/4 of India’s annual electricity generation (1/2) https://t.co/0DS2DelWBg
India and China push "multiple energy pathways" not fossil end date in G20 talks

India and China are trying to stop the G20 setting an end-date for the use of fossil fuels, highlighting different national circumstances instead

The economics of EU gas-fired power remain challenged while those of renewables-plus-storage are still more compelling, as we explored earlier this year: https://t.co/a8jBWCM6JK (3/3)
Is gas-fired power back in the money? — TransitionZero

Wholesale gas prices collapsed at the end of 2022, making gas-fired power generation profitable in Europe for the first time in months. But the economics of gas power plants remain uncertain, and renewables are still much more competitive.

Fears of a coal resurgence did not materialise last winter. EU coal generation fell compared to winter 2021-22 thanks to booming renewables and demand destruction, as @nichferris reports https://t.co/n6u6ILyOnc (1/3)
Weekly data: Europe’s ‘coal comeback’ that never materialised

Booming renewables and electricity demand reductions meant that the EU's winter 2022–23 coal generation fell compared to the previous year.

TransitionZero analysis sheds light on China's coal problem and the need to incentivise efficient use of existing resources https://t.co/5hWSEEHGc4

Column: China gears up for peak emissions season with record coal imports

Emissions from China's power sector are set to hit new highs over the coming summer as rising temperatures spur increased air conditioner use just as factories and heavy industry continue to expand output from last year's pandemic-hit levels.
