Cipher reader Raahul Ramakrishnan, MD snapped this photo of a giant solar installation in Barcelona earlier this summer. The structure, known as the “photovoltaic pergola of the Forum” was built in 2004 to celebrate sustainability, and is so big it can be seen from about 18 miles away. Each week, we feature a photo that is somehow related to energy, the thing we all need but don’t notice until it’s expensive or gone. Email your ideas and photos to news@ciphernews.com.

There are lots of reasons why phasing out coal-fired power plants in Southeast Asia is really tricky, including: + The region’s nearly 2,000 coal power plants account for about 60% of Asia’s energy consumption (compared to a global average below 36%). + Asia’s coal plants are collectively the world’s youngest. Plants in Southeast Asia have an average age roughly below 15 years, in an industry where plants often last 40 to 50 years. + More than 80% of the 8.4 million people employed globally in the coal industry are concentrated in Asia. Bill Spindle traveled to the region to learn more about efforts to wean the region of the dirtiest of fossil fuels: https://nt-z.ro/4dg1cbL

Asia’s coal fleet is the youngest and busiest in the world, especially in Southeast Asia. They are slated to contribute significantly to global greenhouse gas emissions over the coming decades. But closing them down is impossible in a region that is seeing some of the fastest, as most economically necessary, energy growth in the world. It’s one of the knottiest challenges of the energy transition, both critical and expensive, requiring economically developed countries with financial resources to work together with the developing countries where these coal plants are operating. Bill Spindle visited Southeast Asia to look at some ways to chip away at the problem. https://nt-z.ro/3YeBtMC
