Renewable energy to dominate Italy’s power generation mix by 2035, says GlobalData
The Russian invasion of Ukraine has had a profound impact on the global energy market. The over reliance of European nations on Russian fossil fuels has posed a significant challenge to supply security. Italy, as one of the largest importers of natural gas, sourced 40% of its gas from Russia until 2021. However, in 2022, […]
Saudi Arabia could reach closer to 130GW renewable capacity target by 2030 with robust policy implementation, says GlobalData
Saudi Arabia is focusing on increasing the share of non-oil fuels to meet its increasing power demand and diversify its power mix. Introduced in 2016, the Saudi Arabia Vision 2030 had an initial target of deploying 9.5GW of green energy by 2030. Since inception, it has undergone many revisions, with the latest being made in […]
Thermal power will continue to dominate annual generation mix of Russia during 2024-35, says GlobalData
Russia has been slow in the adoption of renewable sources for power generation due to the availability of cheap conventional energy sources. In 2023, annual generation through thermal power sources held a share of 59.5% in the total generation mix of the country. The electricity demand in Russia is expected to rise from 818.9TWh in […]
UAE power mix will continue to be dominated by thermal power in next decade, says GlobalData
With the discovery of more onshore hydrocarbon reserves, the United Arab Emirates (UAE) is aiming to become self-sufficient in gas supply by 2030. Currently, the country is dependent on gas imports for power plants and water desalination plants. As of 2023, thermal power generation comprised around 77.7% of the total power generation mix of the […]
APAC countries to refocus on nuclear power and adopt rooftop PV to achieve climate goals, says GlobalData
The global energy market witnessed increased energy prices in recent years and several governments have been lagging in their climate targets in the Asia-Pacific (APAC) region. The governments in the region are looking at ways to meet their climate goals through alternative strategies. Rooftop PV targets are key on government agendas to meet their renewable […]
Global high-voltage switchgear market to reach $30.3 billion in 2027, forecasts GlobalData
The global high-voltage (HV) switchgear market is forecast to reach $30.34 billion in 2027 from $25.02 billion in 2022, growing at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 3.54% between 2023 and 2027, according to GlobalData, a leading data and analytics company. GlobalData’s latest report, “Switchgears for Power Transmission, Market Size, Share and Trends Analysis […]
Government mandates and infrastructure investments to fuel EV growth globally, says GlobalData
The electric vehicle (EV) sector registered exponential growth during the last decade due to depleting fossil fuel reserves and growing awareness about the impact of global warming. As EVs are a viable option to replace internal combustion engine (ICE) vehicles, EV sales increased substantially in several countries despite the automotive industry facing supply chain constraints […]
