🇲🇾 The Malaysian government has long viewed rooftop solar as a key lever for system decarbonisation, yet uptake has consistently fallen short of expectations, with low adoption reflected in official statistics.

👁️ We wanted to get a clearer picture of real, installed rooftop solar capacity...

South Africa halted production at its largest steel blast furnace in September, removing more than two million tonnes of annual ironmaking capacity from the global emissions landscape.

How do we know?

🤫 We saw the plant go quiet.

🇻🇳 Vietnam has dominated Southeast Asia’s leaderboard as the largest solar power market for some time now… but official statistics generally fail to capture growth in small rooftop solar PV systems.

Why does this matter?

These papers really helped us roll up our sleeves and get into very practical challenges & solutions to enable more coal retirement and to take a nuanced look at the role of coal during the transition. Huge kudos to the teams at @rockymtninst.bsky.social and @transitionzero.org for authoring these.

🎉 We’re proud to have authored a technical note for the Coal Transition Commission: ‘From Flex to Phase-Out’, which examines the role of coal flexibility in energy transition strategies: poweringpastcoal.org/news/coal-tr...

❓ But what exactly IS coal flex?

Saudi Arabia’s solar buildout is accelerating fast.

Our data shows a 22% jump in detected capacity this quarter, reaching 10.8 GW.

☀️ And it isn't alone... we noted a 5.6% increase in capacity worldwide.

📈 Pakistan has emerged as one of the world’s fastest-growing solar markets, but comprehensive data on actual installations remains limited.

But tracking small-scale solar across an entire country isn’t easy.

TransitionZero needed a faster, scalable way to see how solar is really spreading...

🇹🇼 In 2024, the Taiwanese government raised its 2030 emissions reduction target from 24% to 28% below 2005 levels.

The country faces both opportunities and obstacles in shifting to a grid powered by low-cost, variable renewable energy.

🇹🇼 How could a subset of commercial and industrial consumers using 24/7 carbon free energy help Taiwan achieve their emissions reduction goals?

Our report will be released tomorrow.

🇲🇾 Malaysia intends to peak emissions around 2040 and reach net zero by 2050. With a rapidly industrialising economy and a grid powered largely by coal and gas, the move toward greater solar, storage and other renewables marks both a challenge and an opportunity for the clean energy transition. ☀️🔋
