November 5, 2024Italy has made significant progress in renewable energy, registering 2.2 GW of projects under environmental processing in October 2024, according to a report by Energía Estratégica España. Agrovoltaic and wind power projects are leading the expansion, although some offshore wind and storage projects were also presented.
November 4, 2024With an aging nuclear fleet and delays in the construction of new reactors, the French government is relying on wind and solar energy to strengthen its energy security. “It cannot do without wind and solar,” says Paul Neau, an expert in energy transition, emphasizing that these resources will be key in addressing the country’s electrical challenges, which include political tensions and administrative complexity in project development.
