Egypt announces Plan to Get 42% of Electricity from Renewables, become Solar Energy Hub for Europe via Greece

African countries see OPPORTUNITY where  Australia’s LNP is blind to nothing but the color of its donor’s money and its short-term power. Australia has the natural and renewable resources to become an international energy hub but refuses to acknowledge the vision and put the brakes on forwarding movement.

Ann Arbor (Informed Comment) – Ghada El-Gendy, the Executive Director of the Arab Renewable Energy Company, said Friday that Egypt has plans to increase the share of renewables in its electricity production to 42 percent by 2035. At the moment, most of Egypt’s power plants run on methane gas or petroleum, and only 12.5 percent of the country’s electricity is from renewables.. Egypt is has one of the highest potentials in the world for solar power production, given that it is sunny most of the time.

Against the odds, South Australia is a renewable energy powerhouse; and they’re showing the world how to do it

Less than two decades ago, South Australia generated all its electricity from fossil fuels. Last year, renewables provided a whopping 60% of the state’s electricity supply. The remarkable progress came as national climate policy was gripped by paralysis – so how did it happen?

Scotland was first Industrialized Country to Run wholly on Wind in October

Ann Arbor (Informed Comment) – Scotland generated enough wind power from onshore wind turbines in October to fuel electricity for five million homes, that is, virtually the entire country. By the end of 2017, renewable energy generated nearly 70% of Scotland’s electricity. That percentage continued to grow this year, led by wind projects. The next big thing in Scotland is likely to be offshore wind, which is less than one percent of generation now Wind is so obviously the future that the utility Scottish Power has sold its gas plants and will concentrate entirely on wind.
