…effects are poised to be particularly strong in some countries. For example, in the United States, data centres are on course to account for almost half of the growth in electricity demand to 2030; in Japan, more than half; and in Malaysia, as much as one-fifth.A diverse range of energy sources will be tapped to meet data centres’ rising electricity needs globally – though renewables and natural gas are currently set to take the lead due to their cost-competitiveness and availability in key markets. Uncertainty around current and future data centre consumption calls for a scenario-based appro...

Sustainable Transport for Georgia: A Roadmap Transport in Georgia: Taking stock
…1 billion GEL (1.52 billion USD). In 2023, transport and storage combined contributed 6.5% to Georgia’s GDP.Transport and storage employed around 8% of Georgia’s workforce in 2023. Cargo movements spurred by Russia’s 2022 full-scale invasion of Ukraine pushed up sector wages by more than 25%, above the national average, despite an 8.5% drop in employment from broader labour market shifts. Overall, Georgia’s strategic location, infrastructure upgrades and participation in regional programmes have bolstered its economic resilience, improved connectivity and supported sustainable trade growth. Economic reforms and liberalisation boost development prospects Georgia…

Ramping up Heat Pumps in Moldova: A Roadmap Executive summary
…endorsing the goal of European Union membership, underscores the country’s commitment to European integration. Outlining an effective path to decarbonise energy use is a prerequisite for joining the bloc and heat pumps can play a central role in this. Overcoming barriers to heat pump adoption Moldova faces several notable barriers to heat pump adoption – many of which mirror challenges seen in countries with more mature markets. These obstacles include the high upfront costs of heat pump technology and installation, alongside limited industry experience and scale. The country’s generally inefficient building stock risks blunting some of the benefits of…

Switzerland
…first principle should be reflected in all climate and energy legislation. Reaching the 2050 net zero emissions target and addressing the growing winter electricity gap between demand and production requires an unprecedented volume of additional renewable generation capacity, especially wind and hydro. For this, the country needs to shorten the complex and extended administrative and legal permitting process. This will also help advancing investments in grid infrastructure to prepare for more decentralised and variable generation. Switzerland should also align its market regulations with those of the European Union with a view towards a legal integration into the EU internal market.
