Did you know that the world’s largest wind farm, the Jaisalmer Wind Park in India, was found to be operating at a mere 29% of its capacity in 2020, despite being equipped with some of the most advanced turbines in the industry? This staggering statistic highlights a pressing issue in the renewable energy sector: wind…
In the midst of the ongoing COP30 discussions, a sobering statistic emerged that should leave us all reeling. According to a recent report by the United Nations, over 60% of the world’s most vulnerable countries are projected to face catastrophic climate-related losses by 2030, with some nations facing losses equivalent to over 300% of their…
Did you know that the aviation industry alone is responsible for around 2.5% of global greenhouse gas emissions, despite accounting for only 2.5% of the world’s transportation sector? And of that 2.5%, a whopping 97% comes from fossil fuels. It’s no wonder that the aviation industry is under increasing pressure to reduce its carbon footprint…
