#COP28 wrapped up today with a historical agreement of over 190 governments calling for the world to transition away from fossil fuels. The pact sends an unprecedented signal that nations worldwide are determined to cut back on coal, oil, and natural gas. This year's "global stocktake" is intended to calibrate guidelines to ensure we are on track to achieve Paris Agreement goals. More importantly, outcomes of this year's meetings are anticipated to accelerate private sector investment in clean energies, like solar and wind. As the rate of energy efficiency improvement doubles, the renewable energy capacity should triple by 2030. Read more on today's announcement here: https://ow.ly/rs1F50Qix3s

You could try to accuse any Middle Eastern country of bias when it comes to oil or gas policy, but it's simple science when you block out all the noise and media fearmongering. Plants need carbon. Our global standard of living is what it is because of fossil fuels including industrialization, urbanization, food production, technological advancement, and transportation. Electric vehicles/batteries/green energy require huge amounts of non-renewables to produce. Renewables simply could not sustain the load required to power our society. #COP28 https://lnkd.in/ggXfgrtu

Yesterday, COP28 considered energy and the transition away from fossil fuels 🌱 Since 1985, when we started importing low-carbon energy ⚡ from France 🇫🇷 , we virtually decarbonised our electricity system 💡. In the nearly 40 years since, our commitment to being the Island’s trusted energy ⚡ partner remains steadfast. Whether exploring future energy technologies, securing our energy independence through on-Island renewable solar ☀️ partnerships, or developing technology we can put in customers’ hands to help them save energy 💷, we're here as Jersey transitions to an all-electric future. #COP28 #ZeroCarbonFuture UN Climate Change

🌍 Exciting Developments from COP28: A Leap Towards Renewable Energy As leaders in clean energy solutions, we at Donovan Energy are thrilled to share insights from the ongoing COP28 summit. A transformative pledge has been announced to triple renewable energy capacity globally. This ambitious goal marks a pivotal shift in our global energy landscape, aligning perfectly with our mission at Donovan Energy. Renewable energy is not just an alternative; it's the future. COP28's commitment reflects a collective acknowledgment of this truth. Such initiatives are crucial in our fight against climate change and pivotal in propelling the world towards a more sustainable and carbon-neutral future. At Donovan Energy, we remain committed to innovative solutions in renewable energy and energy efficiency. We celebrate this global step and are excited about the possibilities it opens up for all of us in the clean energy sector. Let's continue to work together for a greener planet! #COP28 #RenewableEnergy #Sustainability #ClimateAction #DonovanEnergy https://lnkd.in/gnx2FXyx

⬇️⬇️⬇️ “The Alliance of Small Island States, representing 39 countries, said it had not been in the room when the deal was adopted as it was still coordinating its response…. ➡️ Its lead negotiator, Anne Rasmussen from Samoa, did not formally object to the agreement and believed the deal had good elements, but said the “the process has failed us” and the text included a “litany of loopholes”. ➡️ We have made an incremental advancement over business as usual when what we really needed is an #exponential step change in our actions and support,” she said. Her speech was met with a standing ovation.” ➡️ Countries backed a call for global renewable energy to be tripled and the rate of #energyefficiency improvements doubled by 2030. A statement that global emissions should peak by 2025 was dropped. ➡️ (Hmmm) Little progress was made on #climateadaptation and #finance, which the deal acknowledges will need trillions of dollars in support. Mohamed Adow, from the thinktank Power Shift Africa, said the deal sent a strong signal, but agreed there were too many loopholes “on *unproven and expensive technologies* like #carboncapture and #storage, which fossil fuel interests will try and use to keep dirty energy on life support”. 🎯🎯🎯 #decarbonization #energytransition #cop28 ➡️ #momentum

Delegates from nearly 200 nations achieved a groundbreaking climate agreement at the COP28 summit, emphasizing a move away from fossil fuels and a focus on renewable energy. 🌎 The agreement outlines key decarbonization strategies, including reducing coal power, eliminating fossil fuel subsidies, advancing low-emission technologies, and transitioning to low-carbon fuels. #COP28 #renewableenergy #decarbonization https://hubs.la/Q02d6JLV0

The battle lines at COP28 are about the agreed language to phase out fossil fuels (and how much wriggle room will be provided with hand waving about CCS, or shifting the focus to more abstract ‘unabated emissions’). While agreement to “triple renewables” is positive, agreement to phase out fossil fuels is much more important. Fossil fuels are almost entirely and solely responsible for climate change. The world can’t win without fossil fuels ending. #energytransition

Fascinating discussion between my colleagues Felicity and Kassra on the future of renewables and what the expect the outcomes of COP28 to be. #COP28

Why I participate in COP28: Attending COP, I will urge world leaders to commit to tripling renewable energy capacity by 2030. DNV proudly supports the @globalrenewablesalliance in emphasizing that a clean and sustainable future is attainable: the gap between our most likely Energy Transition scenario and the path to achieving global Paris Agreement Net Zero goals is just a 5% additional cost! → [https://shorturl.at/fnvR4] Let's prioritize implementation for a lasting impact, starting NOW. Policymakers must act decisively to unlock the transformative potential of clean energy worldwide. Join us in the fight against climate change. #CleanEnergyFuture #ClimateActionNow #DNVatCOP28 #FutureOfEnergy #RenewableImpact
