Civilization is growing thirstier for energy with each passing year – an unquenchable desire which shows no sign of being easily sated.
Recent figures show global energy consumption accelerating at its fastest ever rate, close to 4% year on year.[1]  And we are nowhere near peak power demand yet.  Global electricity consumption is expected to rise an unparallelled 3,500 TWh over the next three years, the equivalent of adding a country the size of Japan to the world’s annual energy bill.  By mid-century our societies will be sucking up even more energy to power our homes, industries and transport systems – anywhere between 59,000 TWh and 72,000 TWh, or roughly double present consumption.[2]

With 2025 confirmed as another of the hottest years on record[3], it is of critical importance that we manage the reality of soaring energy demands wisely and sustainably.
Genuine challenges lie ahead.  Achieving net-zero emissions by 2050 will need something in the order of US$ 4 trillion annual spending in the coming years[4].  Yet the rewards of a sustainable energy transition are equally rich, with potentially millions of new jobs, a global economic boom and universal access to electricity all within our grasp.
Promisingly, most of the technologies required to ensure our global transition to a zero carbon energy system are already available and operational on the market, principally through solar power and wind power solutions.
Together these technologies are having a dramatic impact on the way we live our lives.  Global renewable energy capacity has increased sharply across all technologies since 2019 and will continue to do so into the future.  The International Energy Agency’s (IEA’s) Renewables 2025 Report forecasts a doubling of global renewable energy capacity between now and the end of the decade, expanding by around 4,600 gigawatts (GW).[5]  Solar and wind combined will comprise 96% of all new additions.

Where is this story unfolding?  Almost everywhere.  China will account for around 60% of this renewable energy growth and is currently scheduled to meet its proposed 2035 solar and wind targets five years earlier than promised.[6]  But it is far from alone on the journey to sustainability.  India, spurred by higher auction volumes and spiking sales for rooftop PV panels, is set to increase its own renewables capacity by 2.5 times before 2030, becoming in the process the second-biggest growth territory for renewables worldwide.  Green energy production is also accelerating in the MENA region due to rapid solar growth in Saudi Arabia, while in Europe a raft of big-budget power purchase agreements (PPAs) are fueling a rise in utility-scale renewable projects.
The benefits are measurable, notably in our gradual rejection of high-pollution alternatives.  As a result of renewable deployment since 2010, countries have collectively cut coal and natural gas imports by 700 million tons and 400 billion cubic meters respectively.[7]
By 2030 renewable energy will account for almost 30% of global electricity supply, twice the current market share.[8]
The ongoing evolution of AI will only supercharge this transition, with machine learning bringing benefits across the value chain: Designing more efficient solar panels and turbines for maximizing energy yield from the weather; optimizing operations and balancing energy distribution to power grids; even creating robots for faster construction and installation of new solar arrays and windfarms.
Some of these advances are earmarked for the future.  However, even with the technology already at our disposal, the unstoppable forces of solar and wind appear destined to shape a greener future for us all.
With global heating acting as a ticking clock, the pressure on us to act is intense.  The omens are good, particularly for the shining star of the clean energy transition: Solar power.
Solar power is tipped to deliver around 80% of all green power growth between now and 2030.[9]  With global photovoltaic (PV) capacity set to more than double over the next five years, its trajectory provides a ray of hope amid media headlines consumed by catastrophic climate change.[10]
Such confidence is valid, with the solar surge reinforced by a range of intersecting factors: Cheaper PV manufacturing costs from China, streamlined permission procedures across local and national governments, and broader social acceptance of the urgent need for more solar farms within our communities.
Smaller distributed PV installations (off-grid projects on domestic and commercial property) will account for 42% of overall solar expansion, driven by rising electricity retail prices and in some emerging economies.  Taking a gamble on solar has never been more affordable: Solar panel prices have fallen around 60% in China since 2023 thanks to a steady supply of materials and greater competition in the market, becoming a viable option for domestic as well as corporate customers.[11]
More countries are throwing legislative weight behind the solar transition through their Nationally Defined Contributions (NDCs), the individual pledges made to reduce emissions agreed during successive COP climate conferences.  Recent additions to NDCs have raised the stakes on prior commitments.  The UK, for example, has set its first ever targets for solar capacity (a 24% increase combined with wind), while Vietnam has doubled its existing PV commitments.  India has agreed to provide subsidies for 60% of investment costs for all distributed solar systems.[12]
Solar has never been hotter, and 2025 proved a banner year for mega-deals in the utility-scale PV market.
Technological breakthroughs, which continued to accelerate through 2025, will likely hasten the transition to a solar-powered world.
Perovskite solar cells – potentially the most impactful breakthrough in PV technology since crystalline silicon – are finally entering commercial production.  Perovskite compounds use tin or lead halides as a base material to harvest light.  Highly efficient, flexible and lightweight, they can be used equally in panels or windows and are becoming cheaper to produce than traditional rigid silicone-based solar cells.  Tandem solar cells are also growing in popularity.  These stack different photovoltaic materials with distinct ‘bandgaps’ (energy ranges) to absorb broader light spectrums than single-material designs.  The UK’s Oxford PV has begun manufacturing tandem perovskite-silicon cells with 24%-27% efficiency rates, far exceeding the 20%-23% of traditional monocrystalline panels.  Experiments in controlled conditions show even higher perovskite-silicon efficiencies, surpassing 33%.[17]
Bifacial (twin-facing) panels are fast becoming the default choice for new solar installations due to falls in unit costs.  Engineered to catch sunlight from ground reflection on the rear surface of panels, such dual-sided systems can raise energy capture between 5% and 30% depending on configuration.[18]
These advances and more ensure solar energy has a bright future.  Yet it cannot single-handedly sustain the global energy transition at the scale required to halt climate change.
Luckily, wind power is also showing itself to be a relentless force of nature.
The wind power revolution isn’t just spin – it is turning heads right around the world.
Just as solar panels are on the march, so too are turbines, both onshore and off.  Wind farms accounted for some 155 GW of new installations in 2025 and are expected to supply roughly one-third of additional global energy capacity between now and 2027.[19]^,[20]
By the end of the decade global wind capacity will double to more than 2,000 GW, with annual additions forecast to reach almost 200 GW annually by 2030.

Wind deployment will only intensify as energy-thirsty economies like China and the EU address longstanding industry challenges surrounding construction costs, lengthy permission processes and public perception.  Furthermore, with competition increasing for the kind of rare earth minerals vital for the magnetic components of wind turbines, countries are also beginning to tackle shortfalls in supply chains.
The EU, for instance, remains heavily reliant on imports for neodymium and praseodymium.  These two minerals are vital for turbine production, with China presently controlling 69% to 74% of all deposits.[21]  In response, the EU is spearheading a new critical minerals alliance with the UK, Japan, Australia and other nations to safeguard future supplies.[22]  The USA, meanwhile, has outlined a new US$ 12 billion critical minerals stockpile – Project Vault – funded by a US$ 10 billion US Export-Import Bank loan and US$1.67 billion of private capital, to achieve greater independence in rare earth elements.[23]
Although the rollout rate of utility-sale turbine projects varies worldwide, trends show the industry has the wind behind its sails.  The IEA recently raised its 2030 wind energy forecast for Europe by 10%, driven by a raft of newly-minted national strategies.[24]  Germany, for example, has introduced reforms to streamline the licensing of new projects; Türkiye has scheduled brand new auction capacity; and Spain is estimating higher growth on the back of additional late-stage projects with grid connections already approved.
In economies both developed and emerging, we are witnessing a surge in wind projects worth multiple billions of dollars.
Wind energy will become even more attractive to investors as technological developments further increase yields and safeguard financial returns.
AI and digital twinning technologies are proving transformational to windfarms, reportedly slashing operational downtime by 60% and cutting inspection costs by 22% in 2025.[29]  Operators are increasingly using digital twins – virtual replicas of turbines supplemented by live sensor data and machine learning predictive software – to anticipate breakdowns and schedule maintenance phases accordingly.
Other wind technology advances are physical, rather than digital, in nature.  In May 2025 Chinese engineers achieved new capacity records with the typhoon-resistant offshore MySE 18.X-20 MW turbine.  Its rotors span 260-292 meters in diameter and can withstand 150kph winds, generating 80 million kWh annually and offsetting 66,000 tons of CO₂ in the process.[30]  Prototypes exist for rotors up to 310 meters long, promising even greater performance milestones in future.
Some of the most wind-rich locations on Earth are located further out to sea than conventional offshore sites, which are typically limited to 60-meter water depths due to limitations of fixed-bottom installations.  With the technology behind floating platforms continuing to evolve, more of these high-wind sites are becoming viable for windfarms.
Three floating platform technologies are currently vying for dominance: Semi-submersible units using pontoons to remain upright; spar platforms with deep-draft cylindrical structures for ballast; and tension-leg designs employing taut mooring lines for stability.  Exploiting these breakthroughs, in 2025 Chinese state-owned CRRC installed the world’s largest floating offshore wind turbine, a 20 MW unit of 151-meter hub height in the Shandong Province.[31]  Similarly demonstrating deep-sea feasibility, the Buchan Offshore Wind consortium has applied to the Scottish government for planning consent for a 1 GW floating windfarm northeast of Aberdeenshire.  The US$ 1.23 billion project will incorporate 70 turbines and should connect to the grid in 2033.[32]
Floating windfarms are set for major growth, with approximately 4.1 GW operational by 2030, rising to 56.2 GW by 2040.[33]
Being weather-dependent, variable renewables like wind and solar do not offer the controllable energy generation of fossil fuel equivalents.  What to do when the sun fails to shine or wind speeds decline?  Life, after all, must go on.  If we wish to guarantee continuous power supplies to the homes and industries at the heart of our communities, we must effectively store energy harvested from the natural elements.
Fortunately, that is a task we are becoming rather smart at accomplishing.
Modern society needs power 24/7 to function, and the only way to store green energy efficiently is in the form of utility-scale battery systems.  Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS) make sound financial sense: A sophisticated network in the UK alone is estimated to save £40 billion by 2050.[34]  That is good news for the environment and the economy.
Grid-scale lithium batteries are key to widespread integration of renewable power into the energy sector – a sector which accounts for more than 40% of all greenhouse gas emissions worldwide.
Time is of the essence: The IEA’s 2025 Global Energy Review shows energy-related carbon emissions reaching a record high 37.8 gigatons of CO₂, driven by an increase in natural gas consumption in China, the United States, the Middle East and India.[35]
Clearly, radical action is needed, and BESS is the standout solution.
Lithium batteries command around a 90% share of the BESS market.  They work by transferring lithium ions between electrodes, using lithiated metal oxides as a cathode for storage and carbon as an anode for extraction.  Lithium Iron Phosphate (LFP) chemistries are rising in prominence thanks to lower costs, longer lifespans and better safety (with superior chemical, thermal, and structural stability).[36]  A single 40 MWh battery can save around 400 hours of grid congestion and approximately US$ 2 million in fuel costs.[37]  Modern BESS units use AI-driven software to coordinate the optimum pattern of storing and releasing energy into the grid, for maximum efficiency.
Technological refinements and economies of scale have seen the price of a fully installed BESS project plummet between 2010 and 2024, falling 93% from US$ 2,571/kWh to US$ 192/kWh.[38]  During that period the total storage capacity of BESS systems globally has grown from zero to an enormous 169 GWh.

With high performance assured, and with the technology becoming more commonplace, some studies suggest the lithium-ion battery industry will achieve a 4.7 TWh capacity and a financial value of US$ 400+ million by 2030.
BESS deployment is a global phenomenon, as evidenced by a busy year of dealmaking in 2025.
Much of the BESS momentum lies within Europe.  If current plans materialize, at least 95 GW of new utility-scale BESS facilities are set for construction between now and 2050 across the continent.  This will dwarf the 5 GW cumulatively installed as recently as 2023 and will together account for more than €70 billion of investment.[43]
Europe’s battery storage industry is supported by a progressive policy environment.  The EU’s REPowerEU plan outlines clean energy infrastructure investments worth €800 million, including several BESS projects.  The European Commission’s Net Zero Industry Act, meanwhile, aims to encourage wider BESS adoption by promoting the domestic manufacture of batteries.
The buzz around carbon-free power projects – solar, wind, and BESS technologies – illustrates the importance of the private sector to securing our planet’s clean energy future.
Data suggests that by 2050 renewables have the potential to provide anywhere from 61% to 67% of the global power mix.[44]  That will mean tangible differences to our daily experience of life: Cleaner air, more bountiful harvests and better jobs.  Ensuring we arrive at the upper end of that percentage range will require a truly united effort, both between nation states and between the public and private sectors.
The journey will not be without hurdles.  In the United States restrictions on new wind and solar deals on federal land (alongside the phase-out of tax credits for green energy projects) have seen domestic renewable growth forecasts lowered.  Similarly, China’s switch from fixed tariffs to auction models for new renewable projects threatens to curtail its own green energy trajectory.  Combined with supply chain pressures, the complexity of grid integration, and competition for funding, it would be wrong to assume that our transition to net zero energy is inevitable.
Industry leaders must be creative in sourcing finance for green energy projects, which typically come with sizable price tags attached.  Several funding strategies have arisen across the sector.
Government grants and subsidies are among the most direct options, with initiatives like the UK’s Contracts for Difference (CfD) scheme ensuring predictable revenue streams, and the EU’s Green Deal diverting capital towards sustainable projects.  Private equity and venture capital can help rapidly scale-up embryonic projects, particularly as concepts of ethical investment and environmental, social and governance (ESG) principles climb the global agenda.  NGOs, multilateral development banks (MDBs) and development finance institutions (DFIs) can help funnel cash towards green energy schemes in emerging economies; the International Finance Corporation (IFC) and European Investment Bank (EIB) are particularly active in offering loans and guarantees to the Global South.  Green bonds are a powerful borrowing tool for utility-scale infrastructure undertakings, with bodies like the World Bank issuing the kind of low-risk options favored by asset firms and pension funds.  Mid-sized projects are even finding capital from independent investors through crowdfunding/community investment channels like Thrive Renewables or Ecoligo.
Power Purchase Agreements (PPAs) have proved an especially potent financing weapon.  PPAs offer investor-friendly long-term revenue security via contractual agreements between energy producers and utility companies, the latter agreeing to purchase electricity at a set price over a predetermined period.
PPAs underwrite many clean energy projects backed by Jameel Energy, which developed into a major player in the sustainable energy market worldwide following Abdul Latif Jameel’s acquisition of FRV in 2015, and subsequent investment and expansion.

FRV is today one of the industry’s major players and the flagship renewable energy business of Abdul Latif Jameel.  FRV manages more than 3 GW of green energy presently in operation (rising to over 4 GW including projects in development and construction) spanning four continents.
FRV continues to roll out a pipeline of new energy projects throughout the world.  In February 2026 it revealed plans to build a new €2.8 billion data center in Merida, Spain.  With €700 million to be invested directly in energy infrastructure – and with more than 80% of electricity coming from renewable self-generation – the Lusitanus data center will become one of the largest and most technically advanced industrial projects in Europe.
Summer 2025 saw FRV’s Masrik-1 55 MW PV plant, the largest in Armenia, commence operations.  Energy, distributed through the national grid via a PPA with Electrical Networks of Armenia CJSC, will power more than 20,000 homes and avoid the emission of 54,000 tons of CO₂ annually.
FRV has been especially active in Australia, where FRV Australia’s largest project to date, Walla Walla, became operational in October 2025.  The 605-hectare 300 MW solar farm, located in New South Wales (NSW), falls under FRV’s 15-year PPA with Microsoft.
The same month, FRV Australia announced the development of the 450 hectare Rangitīkei solar farm in New Zealand’s North Island.  The project is set to achieve annual generation of around 350,000 MWh, enough to supply 45,000 homes, and will also create 250 new jobs during construction.
Continually innovating and investing, FRV is regularly celebrating the unveiling or progression of new Battery Energy Storage System, or ‘BESS’ projects.  Sites in the UK include Holes Bay, Dorset; Contego, West Sussex; and Clay Tye, Essex, while the company has established a BESS Center of Excellence in Madrid, Spain, and is spearheading private sector efforts to promote BESS plants throughout Europe, Australia and Latin America.  FRV Australia runs a BESS plant in Terang, Victoria, and a hybrid plant in Dalby, Queensland.
Currently under construction in Chile is the Tarapacá hybrid power station, its largest project to date, with a peak power output of 504 MW shared between PV generation and battery storage.  The 461-hectare site will supply electricity for 250,000 homes and is expected to become operational in 2027.
In Spain, FRV is adding an additional 1,200 MW of green energy to its books by hybridizing its PV assets with battery storage and developing standalone BESS assets.  Based across the autonomous communities of Extremadura, Andalusia, Catalonia, and Cantabria, the storage projects are expected to reach ready-to-build status by 2027 at the latest.  In Extremadura, FRV is adding batteries to its Carmonita solar farm cluster: 320 MW at Carmonita Ministerio, 91 MW at Carmonita Norte, 80 MW at Carmonita Sur and 40 MW at Carmonita IV.
FRV Australia has also seen significant expansion in its BESS portfolio. In February 2026, the company signed a Long-Term Energy Service Agreement (LTESA) under New South Wales’ Electricity Infrastructure Program to bolster the state’s long-duration energy storage capacity.  The Armidale East BESS project will have a total capacity of 315 MW, half of which will supply an eight-hour duration system – one of the most significant storage initiatives in the whole country.
The previous year, FRV Australia reached financial close on its 250 MW Gnarwarre BESS storage project in Victoria in August 2025.  FRV Australia’s largest BESS project so far, Gnarwarre will form a key component of the nation’s green energy transition.  Once complete, it will bring FRV’s Australian portfolio to an installed capacity of 1.4 GW.
Elsewhere in Victoria, in March 2025 FRV Australia acquired the 190 MW hybrid solar and BESS Axedale project east of Bendigo.  Axedale will have a generation capacity of 140 MW solar energy and a 50 MW two-hour duration BESS system.  It will provide clean energy to some 80,000 homes across Victoria.
Meanwhile, the business continues to go from strength to strength with BESS facilities in Europe. In October 2025 FRV announced financial close on its SIMO 100 MW BESS project in Finland – one of the largest ever greenlit in the country.  The development, near Fingrid’s Simojoki substation in Lapland, is dual phase.  Phase one (30 MW) is already operational in the wholesale market, and phase two (70 MW) is scheduled for commissioning in August 2026.
Other FRV projects already granted permission are moving closer to connection.  In November 2025 FRV submitted a portfolio of 1.8 GW renewable and BESS projects to the UK government’s Gate 2 window of its Connection Reform process.  All projects – including the Bicker Fen (400 MW), Stocking Pelham (400 MW), Stow Manor (400 MW), Ansty (200 MW) and Maes Melin (200 MW) BESS facilities – are seeking connection dates before 2030.
FRV’s expertise extends beyond PV and BESS.  In summer 2025 it announced a strategic partnership with renewable energy leader Envision for the H2 Cumbuco Project in Brazil.  A green ammonia project based in the renewable hydrogen hub of the Port of Pecém, it aims to establish large-scale green hydrogen and ammonia production for markets in South America, Asia and Europe.  The AI-driven operation will comprise an electrolysis facility of up to 500 MW and an integrated ammonia plant and is expected to start feeding the grid by 2030.
Reflecting its status as global green energy leader, all FRV’s projects assume a nature-first ethos.  Solar projects in Australia, for example, regularly prioritize the rights of native fauna.  Construction schedules are adjusted to respect wildlife movements and migrations; environmental specialists are consulted at every stage of the journey; and infrastructure is carefully integrated to preserve natural corridors and habitats.  With these principles enshrined, biodiversity becomes not a constraint but a design opportunity. FRV Australia’s Walla Walla facility was even cited by Microsoft as one of the six key projects helping the US technology giant meet its renewable energy goals.
FRV is also renowned for incubating new technologies via its innovation arm, FRV-X, established in 2019.  FRV-X explores new concepts in technology, service and business models to deliver scalable green energy solutions to the marketplace, adding momentum to the global sustainability transition.  Current undertakings include creative data center solutions; aggregation business models in supply and distribution; the development of the green hydrogen economy; and energy utilization / efficiency across new technologies.  The team is focused on battery-based systems, directly connected or co-located with renewable plants, and novel grid management services to enhance the dispatchability of renewable assets.
“We must prioritize energy efficiency if we wish to restore environmental equilibrium and ensure greater security for future generations,” says Fady Jameel, Vice Chairman, International, Abdul Latif Jameel.
“Wind and solar power – high-velocity, shining examples – combined with cutting-edge battery storage solutions like those being developed by FRV can help unlock a more sustainable future for us all. 
We all look forward to the day when we can turn on a light switch or charge up a car safe in the knowledge that such simple actions come with net-zero carbon impacts for our precious ecosystem.”
