IEEFA

The Institute for Energy Economics and Financial Analysis (IEEFA) examines issues related to energy markets, trends, and policies. It aims to accelerate the transition to a diverse, sustainable and profitable energy economy.

Asia faces higher energy costs from LNG disruption, IEEFA says

Bangladesh alone spent $880m on emergency cargoes after supply disruptions.

Thailand rooftop solar reforms could cut LNG reliance, IEEFA says

Rooftop systems account for just 3.6 GW of its 11.8 GW solar capacity.

India's Delhi faces rising night-time power peaks: report

Land constraints limit its scope for large-scale generation.

Policy hurdles slow Australia's commercial-solar rollout despite 86GW potential

Grid delays and tariff complexity slow commercial solar deployment.

Japan's ammonia co-firing plan faces high costs, slow rollout

Achieving 20% co-firing across utility coal plants could require 20 MTPA of ammonia.

Indonesia grid disruptions underscore need for rooftop solar and battery storage

Installed rooftop solar capacity stood at 853 MW, well below regional peers.

Pakistan’s LNG supply hit as Middle East conflict halts Qatar cargoes

Qatar cuts shipments as a 28,000-MW summer demand gap emerges.

Australia’s business rooftops miss solar potential amidst regulatory barriers

Its grid and tariff systems constrain enterprise solar deployment.

Cambodia beats long-term solar goals with 1.5 GW installed

It surpassed its tagets nearly a decade early.

Bangladesh power sector’s $4.53b shortfall underscores transition imperative

Industries now face tariffs of up to $0.13/kWh following increases of as much as 17%.

India’s energy storage auctions face risk as tariffs undercut costs

Nearly 75% of standalone battery capacity sits in the risk category.

Indonesia’s $1b grid funding shortfall exposes PLN’s structural financing strains

Underinvestment leaves power network behind transition requirements.

Bangladesh power costs climb despite falling coal and oil prices

Primary energy imports increased to 62.5%, exposing deeper reliance on external supply.

Japan energy policy forces renewable curtailment surge

Solar output hits 3,290 MW cuts in Tokyo grid as inflexible supply rises.

India's annual clean energy investment projected at $145b by 2035, says IEEFA

Debt structure will determine the pace of capacity expansion, report says.
