India Drops 13 Places in Global Climate Change Performance Index Due to Lack of Coal Exit Strategy
Nov 19, 2025 03:03 am CST
India has fallen 13 positions to 23rd place in the Climate Change Performance Index 2026, primarily due to the absence of a coal exit timeline. Despite achieving 50% non-fossil power capacity ahead of schedule, India's continued coal auctions and fossil fuel expansion have shifted its status from a high to medium performer. The report, released at COP30, recommends implementing a time-bound coal phase-down, redirecting fossil subsidies toward renewable energy, and establishing clearer transition pathways with interim milestones.
The Renewable Energy Paradox: Why Clean Power Isn't Replacing Fossil Fuels Fast Enough Despite Lower Costs
Nov 18, 2025 01:44 pm CST
Despite renewable energy becoming more affordable than fossil fuels for utility-scale electricity generation, its global adoption faces significant challenges, especially in developing countries. While clean energy accounted for 46% of global power capacity in 2024, financial barriers, regulatory delays, and political obstacles continue to slow the transition. International cooperation to reduce financing costs in emerging economies is crucial to prevent decades of locked-in emissions and realize the substantial economic, health, and climate benefits of renewable energy.
