This report highlights the importance of sector coupling as a key source of flexibility that cities can explore to stabilise power grid operations when integrating high shares of variable renewable energy sources. It presents a range of sector coupling opportunities available for use in cities, including self-consumption of variable RE sources, the role of thermal […]
Institutions all over the world are setting up microcredentials in responses to calls from governments and industry: short courses, usually offered online by accredited institutions, with an emphasis on the needs of the workplace. They are also often used for retraining and upskilling. This book explains how to start offering microcredentials as an academic institution.
This guide aims to accelerate the flexibility and responsiveness of learning systems by providing guidance on the design, issue and recognition of micro-credentials.
This report highlights the economic, social and environmental benefits that energy and transport sector-coupling and a transition towards EV- and RE-based, efficient systems can create in small island settings, and provides tools for the planning of such a transition.
This report delves into the challenges, opportunities, and innovations shaping the future of the steel industry as the global transition to a low-carbon economy accelerates.
The Breakthrough Agenda Report 2023 is an annual collaboration between the International Energy Agency (IEA), the International Renewable Energy Agency (IRENA) and the United Nations Climate Change High-Level Champions. It takes stock of emissions reductions in key energy subsectors and focuses on supporting stronger international collaboration to drive faster reductions in global greenhouse gas emissions.
The Green Steel Tracker aims to support decision makers in policy and industry, academia as well as civil society, by tracking public announcements of low-carbon investments in the steel industry and presenting them transparently in one place.
This article assesses the opportunities provided by digital monitoring, reporting and verification (dMRV), which can facilitate real-time tracking of the use and fuel sales from clean cooking products, thereby increasing the integrity of emissions reduction claims.
This report illustrates the need for digital monitoring, reporting, and verification (D-MRV) systems to underpin future carbon markets. It discusses the available technologies, and barriers to their adoption, as well as guidelines, tools, and lessons learned to promote the use of these systems.
