Myanmar unveils new Nationally Determined Contribution

The country’s share of solar and wind energy will remain consistent.

Myanmar is setting a conditional target, with international support, of avoiding 144 MtCO2eq of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions by 2030 against that which was predicted under the Business as Usual (BAU) scenario of 297 MtCO2eq.

Enerdata reported that the country is set to achieve this target by increasing the share of solar and wind to 54% (from 2,000 megawatts [MW] to 3,070 MW) by 2030.

Also, the country aims to decrease the share of coal by 73.5% (from 7,940 MW to 2,120 MW) by 2030. Under its unconditional target in using its domestic resources in the energy sector, Myanmar seeks to avoid 105 MtCO2eq by 2030 from the BAU.

The report further said that by 2030, the share of solar and wind will remain consistent, and coal will decrease by 54% from the BAU to 3,620 MW.

Global clean energy tech market to hit $2t by 2035

This is fuelled by investments as countries aim to enhance energy security.The global clean energy technology market is projected to grow from $700b in 2023 to over $2t by 2035, nearing the scale of the crude oil market, according to the International Energy Agency (IEA).This growth is fuelled by significant investments in clean technology manufacturing as countries aim to enhance energy security, maintain economic competitiveness, and cut emissions. Investment is concentrated in regions with established positions in clean energy, particularly China, the European Union, the UK, and increasingly, India.Whilst the US, EU, and India have taken measures to support their clean energy sectors, China is expected to remain the world's manufacturing hub. By 2035, China's clean technology exports are forecasted to exceed $340b—comparable to projected oil export revenues from Saudi Arabia and the UAE.Southeast Asia, Latin America, and Africa contribute less than 5% of global cleantech production value, yet the IEA suggests that these areas still hold opportunities within the clean energy economy. Developing economies, for instance, could leverage competitive advantages to advance in the value chain beyond resource extraction.The IEA said Southeast Asia could become one of the most cost-effective regions for producing polysilicon and wafers for solar panels over the next decade.
