Southeast Asia could increase its installed renewable energy capacity to nearly three terawatts by 2050 through cumulative investment of $2.5 trillion, strengthening energy security, supporting industrial growth and reducing reliance on fossil fuel imports, according to the International Renewable Energy Agency (IRENA).
Sweden’s power sector is set for renewable-led growth as industrial electrification and data centres boost demand. However, transmission bottlenecks between northern generation hubs and southern consumers threaten to constrain supply and widen regional electricity-price differences, according to GlobalData.
TotalEnergies and SWM, a major player in the paper industry, announce the signing of a contract for the supply of renewable electricity with a constant delivery profile (Clean Firm Power) to SWM’s three plants in France (Papeteries de Saint Girons, PDM Industries, and LTR Industries).
