UK Mulls Energy Bill Discounts to Families Close to Pylons to Reduce Resistance to Renewables Infrastructure

The United Kingdom (UK) is considering an energy bill that would provide energy discounts to communities living close to solar electricity pylons. Energy Secretary Ed Miliband recently informed the media that the cost of discounting energy prices for these communities will require government to increase the average yearly energy bills elsewhere in the country by 80 pence. The bill is meant to reduce the growing local resistance to pylons and other large grid infrastructure designed to transmit solar energy from solar farms. As per the proposed bill, households in the UK that are located within 500 meters of a newly…

Green Energy Investment is Showing Mismatched Priorities

Green energy is attracting a lot of much-needed investment but most investors are channeling their capital into mature projects and avoiding high-risk innovation. While staying away from high-risk investments is a sound investment strategy for the risk-averse, it may make it difficult for risky but impactful renewable energy projects to get off the ground. Most projections for the investments needed to fund the world's green energy future quote staggeringly large figures. After all, clean energy projects can be incredibly expensive to launch and they almost always require additional investments in grid infrastructure upgrades. However, all these investments are needed to…

Clean Energy Messaging Switches to Job Creation and Making Money

For the past several decades, calls to transition from fossil fuels to renewable sources of energy have been centered around preserving the environment and combating climate change. After all, fossil fuels produce millions of tons of carbon emissions every year and have been scientifically proven to contribute to climate change. However, the messaging around clean energy is shifting from ‘saving the planet’ to creating jobs and providing folks with new money-making opportunities. Renewable energy has already created tens of thousands of jobs globally and is expected to create many more over the next couple of decades. Centering green energy around…

Report Calls Out Europe for Using African Renewable Energy for Greenwashing

Greenpeace is calling out European nations for using renewable energy produced in Africa to ‘greenwash’ their economies. The Greenpeace report says that European-backed green energy projects in North Africa limit the region’s ability to decarbonize, keep it dependent on fossil fuel imports and force it to shoulder the environmental costs involved with burning fossil fuels. Egypt and Morocco recently partnered with several European nations in a deal that would see the North African nations supply wind and solar energy to Europe over the next decade. The two countries are angling to position themselves as a key supplier to Europe as…
