News at Glance Renewable-powered electrolysis can produce low-carbon hydrogen suitable as feedstock for ammonia synthesis. Switching hydrogen supply from fossil-derived routes to renewables lowers the carbon intensity of ammonia used in fertiliser and other industries. Deployment barriers include higher capital costs, electricity supply consistency and water availability for electrolysis. Renewable-powered electrolysis cuts emissions intensity of […]
News at Glance CSE study calls for operational integration of renewable and coal-based power sectors to manage variability and ensure reliability. Study warns of coordination gaps between generation dispatch, market rules and plant operations that could hinder the transition. Policy, market and operational reforms are recommended to align incentives, enhance flexibility and reduce risks to […]
News at Glance India is considering low-cost loans to help renewable projects facing revenue loss from power curbs, sources said. Funding options under discussion include state banks and multilateral lenders, according to people familiar with the talks. Measures aim to ease liquidity strain and preserve investor confidence while details and timelines remain unclear. State banks […]
