An analysis from @transitionzero.org shows that, for Pakistan, investing US$500m in batteries and renewables could save up to US$2.87b in RLNG costs and avoid #emissions spikes tied to global fuel shocks. Read more: www.transitionzero.org/insights/bat...

108,346 solar facilities. 1,331 GW detected globally. Capacity up 6.8% in one quarter. Spain leads Europe at 46 GW, and its solar-heavy grid is proving far more resilient to the Iran crisis than fossil-dependent neighbours. Q1 2026 data is live: www.transitionzero.org/insights/spa...

The Philippines could incur US$90.5bn in fossil system costs through 2040. 81% of that is fuel and variable costs. New modelling shows solar grows eightfold and 12 GW of battery gets built. But contract lock-in keeps coal and gas running. 🔗 bit.ly/4e8ITJ9

Grids will do the heavy lifting in the energy transition. They enable renewables, reduce costs, and create clean power trade routes. ⚡ But expansion is complex. How much? Where? What are the trade-offs? We explored these questions: www.transitionzero.org/insights/cab...

Coal outages in the Philippines surged 200% in 2025. ⚠️ The worst performers are the most contracted. When these plants go offline, supply tightens, potentially pushing up consumer prices through higher-cost alternatives. 📊 New TZ-CAT analysis: bit.ly/4svoq4E

The Philippines signed 75 emergency coal contracts since 2022. Some cost 32 to 68% more than long-term deals. Without firm alternatives, supply gaps get filled with expensive short-term coal. New TZ-CAT analysis: www.transitionzero.org/insights/phi...

⚡ Cutting coal doesn’t always mean more renewables. In Peninsular Malaysia, coal reductions could mostly shift to gas instead — up to 69–90% in our analysis. But Sarawak shows a cleaner pathway, where coal cuts could be replaced by hydropower. www.transitionzero.org/insights/coa...

Malaysia’s data centres now use 3% of Peninsular electricity — triple the year before. Coal retirements after 2029 create a turning point. If clean energy and imports don’t scale fast enough, gas fills the gap, but will stay on for decades. Read more 👇 www.transitionzero.org/insights/mal...

🏭 Can coal plants in Southeast Asia run more flexibly? Technically, sometimes. Commercially? Much harder. Long-term PPAs, two-part tariffs & must-run clauses lock coal into baseload — even as solar and wind grow. Part II of our coal flexibility series explores why 👇 🔗 bit.ly/4aAHLut
