Energy transition pathways towards a low-cost 100% renewable power system across India by 2050 

Wärtsilä and Lappeenranta-Lahti University of Technology LUT have carried out a first-of-its kind power system analysis exploring a net-zero power system across India by 2050. The findings of the study show that India can accelerate the transition towards a cost-optimal power system based on 100% renewable energy and avoid locking in a highly polluting, more expensive and less effective energy resources.

This event was co-organised with Lappeenranta-Lahti University of Technology LUT.

Sri Lanka's Path to 70% Renewable Energy 

The energy landscape is in transition towards more flexible and sustainable energy systems, driven by the decreasing price of renewable energy. How can Sri Lanka enable more renewable energy in their power system while maintaining and improving power system reliability and reducing electricity price?

Join us as we share insights and discuss how Sri Lanka can reach the 70% renewable energy target!

This event was co-organised with: Professional Engineers Association (PEA), Organization of Professional Associations of Sri Lanka (OPA) - CG&SD Committee, and Wärtsilä.

As the participation of alternative sources and distributed energy resources in the Brazilian power sector is expanding rapidly, appropriate treatment is required regarding their representation in the energy models used both for the expansion and operation of the electrical system. In addition, it is also essential to think about new business models and regulatory improvements to pave the way for the insertion of new renewable sources and smart grids in the Brazilian electricity sector. Thus the purpose of this event was to bring experts from Brazil and other countries to discuss ideas on how to address such complexity in energy planning.

Germany broke its green energy generation records in April, with renewables achieving an incredible 62% average share of generation, up 13% year on year.

However, the country could actually have achieved a 100% renewable day but it missed out on achieving this milestone. The reason? The inflexibility of the power system.

Global 100% RE insights with focus on Power-to-X and flexibility 

The world is moving towards power systems based on 100% renewable energy sources, but the intermittent nature of renewables needs flexible solutions to balance them. Technologies for replacing fossil fuels exist already today and Power-to-X – a process which allows the creation of carbon neutral and renewable synthetic fuels by capturing CO2 from the air, is one of the key components to reach the final 100% renewable energy while decarbonizing industries, transportation and the energy sector utilising existing infrastructure.
