#MENA economies are threatened by climate change & global #energytransition but adopt #energy transitions locally as an economic-not an environmental-response.Can transitions be climate-resilient & just for all? I explain w/ lessons from #Oman #Morocco. @CarnegieEndow @oxfordMec
Just Energy Transitions? Lessons From Oman and Morocco Economically motivated energy transitions must be climate-resilient to generate just transitions that benefit people and the environment. @ManalShehabi discusses. carnegieendowment.org/resear…

A step in the right direction, which still needs the policy tools, an enabling environment, and a holistic approach for sector reforms to be implemented. My thoughts on the recently approved DRE law in #Lebanon to @Ilias_Energia from @pvmagazine
Lebanon introduces peer-to-peer renewable energy trading: The Lebanese parliament has ratified a new law that allows peer-to-peer renewable energy trading between private sector entities, in addition to… dlvr.it/T0shW6 #CommercialIndustrialPV #Markets #ResidentialPV

In my interview w/@CNNBusinessAr,I explain #EnergyTransition is a must to achieve #climate goals & also reduce #energy poverty. But it requires funding, regulations, #technology, etc.Many of these issues top the @COP28_UAE agenda. To watch,click👇🏻. @ANU_ICEDS @oxfordMec @FAMESOx

Dark discussion.. I covered yest the impact of the lack of offshore gas discoveries on the likelihood of war, 🕯️What to expect in the energy sector in a war scenario, 🕯️& prospects for energy sector reconstruction (hint: null). Even without a full-scale war, it's not looking good. ⏩ 1) More expensive fuel: oil is at $90 per barrel. Insurance for Lebanon will become more expensive. In addition to transport disruptions, ➡️ less fuel imports. Yet, at a higher cost, with no subsidies, in ongoing and acute financial and economic crises. Blackouts would increase even in the absence of direct attacks on power plants. 2) Low fuel storage capacity. 3) The 2 alternative power generation that residents have been relying on to mind the chronic national electricity utility supply shortage: diesel generators and rooftop solar PV, are at risk, despite that their decentralized model enhances energy security in such a scenario in theory. Full discussion ⬇️. Does this look like a country that can handle a war?! youtube.com/live/AdKK-mm6qzI…

I covered the GCC's energy storage systems in my latest for @MeesEnergy; status, challenges & a way forward.. "The Gulf Arab states’ utility-scale energy storage market is expected to reach 1.5-2.5GW by 2027, compared to 0.1GW of capacity installed by 2021, despite limited policy support, and persistent market and financial challenges. Batteries are currently the largest source of ESS in the Gulf and are dominated by the UA. These technologies will contribute significantly to planned capacity expansion, mostly through a large single-site application in Saudi Arabia..." More ⬇️ mees.com/2023/10/20/op-ed-do…

I keep hearing of the "green/ renewables revolution" in MENA & exporting green electricity to "insert anywhere".. ⛔ Meanwhile, share of renewables in electricity production is < 2%. ⛔ Exporting green electricity requires having... Wait for it.. a green electricity mix!

I also confirm that there are opportunities for #SaudiArabia to export #RenewableEnergy to #Europe; #Egypt has already taken a lead. There are also challenges-from #geopolitics,potential issues/ damage for #subsea cables, need for investments,etc. #energy #sustainability #الشرق
