France would need almost double the solar PV capacity in just three years: IEA
France aims at a share of 23 per cent renewables in gross final energy consumption by 2020, but had 17.2 per cent in 2019 and 19.1 per cent in 2020. The gap with the 2023 targets under the PPE is massive: France would need to add 6.4 GW of wind capacity and almost double the solar PV capacity in just three years.

Resource adequacy recommendations for a clean energy grid in the US
The controversial topic of resource adequacy (RA) is undergoing fundamental reassessment to function properly with the future resource mix. From a legal standpoint, while FERC’s authority over resource adequacy in the ISO/RTO setting has been construed expansively, the Commission has declined to mandate capacity markets in circumstances where reliability and economic problems have not been demonstrated.

RENdez-vous Southeast Asia: RE-Imagining Renewable Energy Futures for Southeast Asia
Southeast Asia has huge, untapped potential to be a leader in renewable energy. Currently, however, economies in the region are heavily dependent on fossil fuels to meet their energy demand. This was the second of a 3-part series of RENdez-vous for Southeast Asia by REN21. Participants and thematic experts discussed and re-imagined what futures may look like for renewable energy in Southeast Asia.

United States Clean Power Update Q2 2021
The report has been prepared by the American Clean Power. The U.S. clean energy industry installed 5,620 MW of clean power capacity in the second quarter of 2021—a record for second quarter installations. Additions in the first half of the year total 9,915 MW, supplanting 2020 as the most active first six months for installations.

Capital Markets Can Power Southeast Asia’s Sustainable Pandemic Recovery
Asia and the Pacific as a whole was already behind schedule in terms of meeting the goals by 2030, and the pandemic has set the region back further. One way in which governments can compensate for this is to mobilize private capital for sustainable investments. In Southeast Asia, countries have already made significant progress in this area. In September 2021, the cumulative value of ASEAN-labeled green, social, and sustainability bonds issued in Southeast Asia reached $16.4 billion.
