These papers really helped us roll up our sleeves and get into very practical challenges & solutions to enable more coal retirement and to take a nuanced look at the role of coal during the transition. Huge kudos to the teams at @rockymtninst.bsky.social and @transitionzero.org for authoring these.
JUST LAUNCHED: new reports show nearly half of ASEAN’s coal fleet can be retired with existing financial solutions⏫
These #CTCReports outline pathways to accelerate coal transitions while keeping power reliable and affordable.

Fossil Fuel generation is not expected to rise for the first time since 2020.
And renewables accounted for all new demand growth 💪

NEW | Solar and wind have grown fast enough to meet ALL new electricity demand in the first three quarters of 2025, leaving fossil generation at a standstill.
Ember forecasts that 2025 could be the first year since Covid-19 without a rise in fossil power.
