        Autonomous vehicles

        GEVO 2026 - Chapter 8 Progress in AI and computing power is disproportionately benefiting EVs, particularly for automated driving and integrated vehicle control. Sensors and chips integrate well with the stable, high-voltage power supply of EV batteries. Electric vehicles lead in automation and advanced driver assistance Driving automation is at the forefront of software developments for cars today. While fully autonomous cars (Level 5 automation)) are not currently in sight, electric driverless taxis (Level 4) are already operating commercially in more than 20 cities worldwide. Moreover, automated driving systems are not limited to self-driving cars – they are also rapidly gaining…

        Policy options to accelerate distributed solar PV in Ukraine Policy options and implications

        Overview of policy instruments for distributed solar PV deployment Globally, government policies and incentives have been the main driver for distributed PV deployment. These instruments can be differentiated between 1) policies targeting investment costs and 2) policies focusing on consumption and the sale of electricity.Policies targeting investment costs usually take the form of direct financial incentives that aim to reduce initial investment costs and make distributed PV systems more affordable for consumers. They include:Grants and rebates: a fixed subsidy, usually with a one-time payment.Tax credits: amounts taxpayers can subtract from taxes, usually based on a percentage…

        Financing Electricity Access in Africa Pathway to universal access

        …and mini-grid regulations are often unclear on areas such as tariff design. Improving project bankability, including by raising demand for electricity, and tapping into domestic capital markets, can unlock further private capital.Concessional finance is essential for derisking private investment and directing capital to underserved markets. Universal access by 2035 will require USD 6.2 billion per year, a significant jump from an average of USD 1 billion per year in 2019-2023. The World Bank and African Development Bank’s Mission 300 – with the target of electrifying 300 million people by 2030 – can help drive up concessional funding levels…

        Global Energy Review 2026 Technology: Nuclear

        …the past decade, 94% of nuclear reactors that started construction were of Chinese or Russian design. The capacity of nuclear reactors under construction is one of the highest levels seen in the last 30 years Nuclear reactors with a combined capacity of 78 GW are currently under construction in 15 countries. Half of capacity under construction globally is in China, with total installed capacity in the country expected to reach 100 GW by around 2030. Among other emerging market and developing economies, Egypt, India and Türkiye each have around 5 GW under construction. In advanced economies, Japan, Korea and the…

        Austria

        Austria is committed to reaching climate neutrality by 2040. Over three quarter of electricity generation already comes from renewables, with a target of achieving a 100% renewable electricity supply by 2030 (national balance). This requires investments to make networks more resilient and flexible, optimise demand side management, and updating the legal and regulatory framework to allow more consumer participation. Buildings and transport account for around half of total emissions . To progress the transition in these sectors, the government supports building renovation, switching from fossil fuels to sustainable heating systems, the electrification of transport and invests in public transport infrastructure.
