Global Energy Alliance For People And Planet (GEAPP) Wins Inaugural World Economic Forum (WEF) Award For Advancing Energy Transition The Global Energy Alliance for People and Planet (GEAPP) has been honored with the inaugural “Giving to Amplify Earth Action (GAEA) Award for Philanthropic-Public-Private Partnership” at the World Economic Forum. This prestigious award celebrates impactful collaborations that unite philanthropy, governments, and private sector stakeholders to address climate change. GEAPP was recognized for its remarkable efforts in advancing renewable energy solutions across Asia, Africa, Latin America, and the Caribbean. Within just two years, the Alliance, consisting of over 50 partners, has mobilized $1.07 billion to fund 130 projects in 40 countries, averted an estimated 147,000 tons of carbon emissions, and improved […] Read the full story here: https://lnkd.in/dntB4HGs #solarenergy #alternativeenergy #solarpv #pvsolar #photovoltaic #cleanenergy #cleantech #climatechange #energytransition #geapp #globalenergyallianceforpeopleandplanet #renewableenergy #renewableenergy #solarenergy #sustainability #wef #worldeconomicforum

Explore the Global Energy Transition Forum and its role in accelerating the shift to clean energy. Discover the commitments made by nations, corporations, and investors.

As a pan-European event, the inaugural Aurora Energy Finance Conference will explore how project sponsors and lenders across Europe can mitigate risks by integrating technologies such as battery storage, deploying new business models like Power Purchase Agreements (PPAs), better anticipating challenges like grid curtailment, and utilising innovative financing structures that more effectively allocate risk. Pierre DENNERY, Head of France, at Aurora Energy Research, said: "Europe's Energy Transition needs massive private investment, but new risks hinder long-term capital deployment. We're gathering key players in the European industry to discuss strategies for maximise capital flows to the energy transition.” The Aurora Energy Finance Conference in Paris is set to take place on October 9, 2024.

"Through community energy and local ownership, more of us can have a stake in the energy that we depend on. That isn’t inevitable. There are examples around the world of clean energy projects that have displaced people from their land, or prioritised exports over local needs. But at its best, it’s entirely possible to rebalance political and economic power through renewable energy." From my Arrival co-author Jeremy Williams, citing the example of Australia's Western Green Energy Hub: https://lnkd.in/g7F2EJfg The Next Economy

This week, the UK launched the Global Clean Power Alliance, uniting 12 nations and key partners like the US and EU to accelerate the global shift to renewable energy.    The focus? Tackling critical challenges such as unlocking private finance for developing countries, tripling renewable capacity, and doubling energy efficiency.   For those of us in renewable energy, this signals a significant moment: 🦺 Leadership matters. With the UK spearheading this initiative, it reinforces our position as a global leader in clean energy innovation and investment. 🗂️ Action is key. £34.8 billion in private investment since July is a great start, but the true test will be translating these commitments into tangible progress. 🤝Collaboration is essential. Partnerships between developed and developing countries are critical to ensuring that no one is left behind in this transition.   As a global renewable energy company based in the UK, we welcome this ambition. It’s a strong reminder that we’re not just building a business; we’re part of a broader mission to create a cleaner, more sustainable future.   The full announcement is worth a read— https://lnkd.in/d2cNUpdJ   Let’s hope this marks the start of real momentum for the global energy transition. #NetZeroTalent #EnergyTransition #DiversityandInclusion #Sustainability

[ENERGY x INNOVATION] 🌍 Canada’s Energy Future: Progress in Oil Sands, But What’s Next? This article from the Canadian Energy Centre highlights a noteworthy milestone: a significant slowdown in oil sands emissions growth alongside nearly $1 trillion in spending on the sector. It’s a remarkable achievement in balancing economic growth and environmental responsibility. But as someone deeply committed to renewable energy and sustainability, I can’t help but wonder: What does this mean for Canada’s energy transition? ✅ Progress in emissions reduction is vital, but we must now ask how we can leverage these investments and technological advancements to accelerate the shift toward renewable energy. 💡 Could this be an opportunity to reimagine energy innovation, balancing the economic impact of traditional energy industries with our climate commitments? Canada has the expertise and resources to lead the global transition to renewables while ensuring no community or industry is left behind. Let’s embrace this challenge with ambition and collaboration. I’d love to hear your thoughts on this—what role do you think oil sands innovation plays in shaping a sustainable future? #Sustainability #EnergyTransition #CanadaEnergy #Leadership #ClimateAction #Innovation
