Grid-enhancing technologies are playing a critical role in modernising the US power system by improving transmission efficiency, increasing grid reliability, and enabling greater integration of renewable energy resources. The report highlights the need to modernise and optimise the US electricity transmission network amid rising power demand, ageing infrastructure, growing renewable energy integration, and increasing grid congestion. Power grid enhancement solutions can unlock substantial additional transmission capacity from existing infrastructure, often at a fraction of the cost of building new infrastructure and in months rather than years.

The report presents India’s GIS-Based AgriPV potential assessment, evaluating the country’s agricultural lands through multiple filters-slope, soil productivity, solar resource, flood risk, landuse, and protected area buffers. 47.35 million hectares of “restricted cropland” considering all crop categories, out of which around 2.835 million hectares of land is available for selected crop categories suitable for AgriPV. Considering validated AgriPV power density values ranging 0.42-0.75 MW/ha, the national AgriPV potential ranges from 1,192 GW to 2,129 GW.

Germany hosts around a quarter of the EU’s total large-scale battery capacity, with over 2.5 GW operational by the end of 2025 which is more than double the capacity of just two years earlier. Germany has a strong grid-scale battery pipeline, but the lack of an ambitious clean flexibility strategy and the preferential treatment of gas in forthcoming auctions risk slowing deployment, causing the country to forego the benefits of batteries and remain locked into gas import dependency for decades. Empowering batteries will help fortify Germany’s energy security.

East Coast Australian energy dynamics from the report indicate that operational demand remained steady, with distributed PV growth offsetting underlying demand growth. Renewables supplied a higher share of NEM generation, reaching new Q1 highs. Expanded battery capacity reshaped supply patterns across the day. WEM supply mix shifted further towards renewables, while battery storage reshaped intraday supply patterns while average WEM energy prices remained consistent year-on-year, with lower volatility, and essential system services costs declined for the west coast energy market.

The paper evaluates the number, type, and distribution of EV chargers needed to achieve Colorado’s goal of 940,000 electric vehicles (EVs) on its roads by 2030 and 2.1 million by 2035. It was found that the number of non-home Level 2 chargers will need to increase to more than 35,000 by 2030, while non-home DC fast chargers will need to increase to around 2,900 by the same year. By 2035, approximately 55,000 non-home Level 2 and about 4,200 DC fast chargers will be needed to support the growing EV fleet.

Ethiopia’s climate finance has gradually increased but must rise by at least fourfold to meet identified needs. Tracked flows averaged USD 2.3 billion annually in 2022/23, equivalent to approximately 1.7% of GDP. This is an 11% increase from the annual average of USD 2.1 billion in 2020/21 but still well below the estimated USD 10.6 billion annual requirement under the NDC 3.0 (2025-2035). Ethiopia’s heavy reliance on international public sources exposes its climate agenda to the constraints of external concessional finance.
