Hydrogen and ammonia are costly for Japan's power sector
Power generation from hydrogen and ammonia plants would come at a significant cost premium and would be best reserved for peak demand and system stability.
Update
China's solar slowdown, seen from space: the Q2 2026 Solar Asset Mapper release
China's detected solar additions halved this quarter, whilst the Philippines posted the fastest growth among Asia's largest solar markets. TZ-SAM's latest data independently corroborates the slowdown reported on the ground.

Nusa Tenggara’s first solar gigawatt displaces Java’s coal, not local diesel
In our model, Nusa Tenggara's diesel fleet already sits idle by 2034. The first gigawatt of solar therefore displaces Java's subcritical coal instead, cutting 1.78 MtCO₂ a year at a net system cost of US$28.4 million (IDR 511 billion), around US$16 per tCO2 avoided

Scenario Builder, redesigned: faster, more auditable and built to grow
Filter hundreds of thousands of input rows and chart multiple scenarios side by side - on the same modelling engine you already trust.
Analysis
Philippine solar could close the renewable share gap in 2030
Modelling shows the 35% renewable energy target drives 3 GW of additional solar capacity, while underperforming coal units taken offline increases reliance on firm capacity and adds 1 GW of geothermal
