India Commits to Net-Zero Emissions by 2070, Amazon Procures Record 8.3 GW of Renewable Energy in 2022 And Much More...

#India has committed to achieving its #netzero emission goal by 2070. In Tuesday’s Economic Survey, Nirmala Sitharaman, Finance Minister, stated that India has achieved 40% of its installed #electricity capacity from non-fossil fuels before the 2030 goal. By 2030, the country’s likely installed capacity from non-fossil fuels will be greater than 500 GW. This would result in a decrease of 29% in average emissions rate by 2029-30, as compared to 2014-15.A close to 125 GW increase in #renewableenergy capacity would result in a reduction of almost 50 million metric tons of annual #greenhousegas emissions.

亚马逊 announced that in 2022 it grew its #renewableenergy capacity by 8.3 gigawatts (GW) through 133 new projects in 11 countries. This brings Amazon’s total portfolio to more than 20 GW—that could generate the amount of #energy to power 5.3 million U.S. homes—across 401 renewable energy projects in 22 countries. The company’s renewable energy purchases continue to add new #wind and #solarprojects on the grids that power Amazon’s operations, including Amazon Web Services (AWS) data centers, Amazon fulfillment centers, and physical stores around the world.

ST Telemedia Global Data Centres India Private Limited (STT GDC India) announced a partnership with O2 RENEWABLES Energy (IV) Private Limited, a subsidiary of O2 Energy SG Pte. Ltd., Singapore (O2 Energy) to obtain renewable energy under a captive structure. This #renewableenergy will power STT GDC India’s Bengaluru facility in the state of Karnataka.

Sprng Energy , ib vogt GmbH , Hinduja National Power Corporation Ltd and BluPine Energy have emerged as the winners of the 500 MW #solar auction conducted by the Gujarat Urja Vikas Nigam Ltd. (GUVNL) The auction is part the Gujarat state government’s efforts to increase renewable energy and reach its goal of 10 GW installed #solar capacity by 2022. These projects will generate over 1,000 GWh per year of clean energy and help to reduce the state’s #carbonfootprint.

Rajasthan Urja Vikas Nigam Limited (RUVNL), has invited bids for setting up of 1500 MW(AC) ISTS-connected Wind-Solar Hybrid Power Projects anywhere in India with required storage to have flexibility in scheduling of power as per requirement of Discoms through Tariff Based Competitive Bidding for a period of 25 years.The Projects to be selected under this RfS provide for deployment of WindSolar Hybrid Power Technology with assured Peak Power Supply.
