The Climate Reality Project’s Post

It’s way past the time we should have exited polluting fossil fuels! It’s because we have postponed the inevitable that we now have a Climate Emergency 🆘 devastating the planet with extreme weather events and off the chart temperatures… We urgently need 21st Century Science led leaders in every nation and business.

"Chile, Brazil, Colombia, and Uruguay occupy the top four positions, maintaining their leadership. Brazil moved up to second place, displacing Colombia to third. This is due to Brazil attracting significant international interest and signing several memorandums of understanding (MoUs), partly due to its ports with export capacity that plan to become hydrogen hubs. In terms of sectors and the application of hydrogen at the national level, the first three countries in the ranking, along with Argentina, exhibit a high level compared to the others, which show minimal or no progress. Similarly, regarding public policies and regulations, Colombia and Uruguay lead the ranking, while Chile continues to stand out for its high number of projects under development and/or in operation." https://lnkd.in/dwZqQwjN

As we conclude a very successful WFO Asia Pacific Summit in #Tokyo, #Japan last week (congratulations to my dear colleague Sayuri Watanabe), we now turn our attention to the Realizing Floating Offshore Wind in Taiwan forum on 27 June 2024! We have a fantastic lineup of industry experts as keynote speakers, panel members, and moderators. The main theme is Floating Offshore Wind in Taiwan, and the event will feature keynotes and panels on: 1) How Taiwan Leads APAC in Floating Offshore Wind 2) The Economic Impact and Value of Pre-commercial Floating Offshore Wind 3) Critical Ingredients for a Successful Floating Offshore Wind A gentle reminder: seating is limited, and onsite registration will not be available, so please register in advance. Additionally, there will be a limited number of simultaneous translation headsets available, so make sure to arrive on time.

The nascent Brazillian H2 ecosystem is showing its vitaly and consistency! Marco Contardi, FGV Europe’s project development manager participated in the event “Diversifying key value chains towards a low-carbon economy: Opportunities for Brazil-Germany partnerships”, organized by the Embassy of Brazil in Berlin as a side event of the Berlin Energy Transition Dialogue 2024. During the event, policy makers, industry associations representatives, Brazilian and German industry leaders, national and international project developers and development banks discussed the enabling conditions, the outline of industrial policies, the wave of new technologies and the projects and giga-projects that are being prepared to put Brazil as a frontrunner of the hydrogen industry.

🔋🌍 H2-Diplo office was inaugurated by Colombia and Germany to boost green hydrogen production. 🔧🌱 #hydrogengreen, #decarbonisation, #Colombia, #Germany, #sustainableeconomies, #H2Diplo, #GIZ, #renewableenergy, #hydrogenproduction 🇨🇴🇩🇪 In response to the call by the head of state, Gustavo Petro, to ‘make the leap to green hydrogen’ as one of the axes of his policy to decarbonise the economy, the governments of Colombia and Germany inaugurated the H2-Diplo Office, the first in the Andean region, financed by the German Federal Foreign Office (AA) to develop green hydrogen. 🔋🌿 The agreement includes green hydrogen derivatives and diversification of the economy with neutral value chains. 📢🇨🇴 In an official statement the Colombian Ministry of Mines and Energy said that the H2-Diplo Office will be implemented by the German Development Cooperation GIZ, which seeks to strengthen the country for the harnessing of green hydrogen. 🔗📌 Details: https://bit.ly/3VilpGl .

During the seminar, Ms. Yamaguchi Yuriko, Senior Manager of Green Energy and PPP Infrastructure at DI SEA, shared the company’s extensive experience in consulting Indonesia on building hydrogen strategy and how these insights could be tailored for Vietnam. DI aims to help governments and businesses navigate the complexities of hydrogen development, including policy formulation, infrastructure creation, and fostering public-private partnerships.  Ms. Yamaguchi Yuriko sharing the experience of building Indonesia's hydrogen society  Talking at the event, experts from both the public and private sectors highlighted several challenges, including the lack of comprehensive infrastructure, high initial investment costs, and regulatory uncertainties. While the government is eager to promote clean energy, the legal frameworks necessary to support hydrogen development remain underdeveloped. Additionally, the high cost of technology acquisition and implementation further impedes progress. In contrast, Japan has already established a comprehensive legal framework for hydrogen projects, advanced expertise, and financial capacity. With Japan’s extensive experience in green energy and strong bilateral ties with Vietnam, the country stands as an ideal partner in accelerating Vietnam’s hydrogen journey.  Additionally, Mr. Nguyen Doan Duc Tuan Anh, DI SEA’s General Director, moderated the discussion panel which explored the critical intersections of policy, finance, and supply chains to foster the Vietnamese hydrogen market. DI’s deep knowledge of renewable energy and collaboration with Japanese stakeholders makes the company a vital partner for Vietnam’s hydrogen transformation.  ttps://https://lnkd.in/geut8MUQ

Over the years, Rakesh Maharaj has had the pleasure of working in Brazil 🇧🇷, a country that captured his heart. Even when investigating accidents in the most difficult of circumstances, Rakesh has always been made to feel very welcome. With a warm, friendly, and curious spirit, the Brazilian people celebrated political independence over a century ago in 1922. As the country marked Independence Day last week, we would also like to celebrate Brazil’s remarkable progress toward energy independence. ☀️🌱 Brazil shines as a global leader in renewable energy. In 2023, with an impressive 194 GW of installed capacity, it proudly ranked third in the world, just behind China 🇨🇳 and the United States 🇺🇸. Leading the charge is Norte Energia a powerhouse consortium featuring Eletronorte NEONERGIA CEMIG JMalucelli Vale and SINOBRAS They came together to create the massive 11.2 GW Belo Monte hydropower plant in Pará, testament to Brazil's commitment to sustainable future. We’d like to extend our warmest wishes to our Brazilian clients, colleagues, and friends. Here’s to a future where Brazil enjoys both political and energy independence! #energytransition #brazil #independenceday #energyindependence
