Solar energy is widely available in Armenia due to its geographical position and is considered a developing industry. In 2022 less than 2% of Armenia’s electricity was generated by solar power. The use of solar energy in Armenia is gradually increasing. In 2019, the European Union announced plans to assist Armenia towards developing its solar power capacity. The initiat. . According to the , Armenia has an average of about 1720 (kWh) solar energy flow per square meter of horizontal surface annually and ha. . As of April 2019 ten 1 MW strong solar stations are installed. Solar and wind stations account for less than 1% of total installed electricity generation capacities. In April 2019 it was announced that German company Das En. In this article, we address the current state of solar energy in Armenia, potential investments and industrial developments in the solar energy sector. [pdf]

The government’s energy policy encourages the use of renewable and clean energy to reduce the country’s dependence on fossil fuels and decrease greenhouse gas emissions. Official statistics for 2020 indicated that the percentage of renewables used for electricity generation was 23.9 percent, compared to 21.7. . Solar Technology: Much of Mauritius receives almost year-round, intensive sunlight that makes solar photovoltaic (PV) energy an attractive energy option, with a. [pdf]
Mauritius aims to increase the share of renewable energy sources in its energy mix, which leads to fluctuating power injection. To reduce this fluctuation from variable renewable energy sources, the installation of Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS) is required.
The Mauritian energy transition to a low carbon economy is picking up speed. The CEB has installed the first grid-scale Battery Energy Storage System (BESS), the first in its kind in Mauritius, to enable high capacity storage of renewable energy in the grid.
This is in line with the Government of Mauritius’ Long Term Energy Strategy 2009-2025 to increase the share of renewable energy in our energy mix (electricity production, transportation sector and manufacturing) to 35% by, namely, reducing the country’s dependence on coal and heavy oil for electricity generation.
Mauritius generates energy through various means including wind farms, solar energy, biomass, wave, and waste-to-energy projects. Currently, bagasse (sugarcane waste) is the leading source, contributing 13.3 percent to the renewable energy generation. Mauritius derives other renewable electricity from hydro, wind, landfill gas, and solar.
According to MARENA, there are currently no building integrated photovoltaics in Mauritius. Energy efficiency is now one of the main criteria in the design of public buildings and in rental of private buildings. The Green Building Council Mauritius was set up in 2009 to promote green building and is a member of World Green Building Council.
The Smart Grid Roadmap for Mauritius was launched in December 2018 to help the CEB integrate new technologies in the power system, enhancing reliability, safety, and security.

Energy in Estonia has heavily depended on fossil fuels. Finland and Estonia are two of the last countries in the world still burning peat. Estonia has set a target of 100% of electricity production from renewable sources by 2030 and climate neutrality by 2050. In response to geopolitical tensions, Estonia reduced its reliance on. . The National Energy and Climate Plan published in 2019 aims to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by 70% by 2030 and by 80% by 2050. Renewable energy must be at least 42%, with a target of 16 TWh in 2030. . Electricity production in Estonia is largely dependent on fossil fuels. In 2007, more than 90% of power was generated from . The Estonian energy company owns the largest -fuelled power plants in the world, . . • • . Amidst geopolitical tensions, Estonia took decisive action to reduce its reliance on Russian energy sources, particularly in response to Russia's. . Renewable energyAccording to the (IRENA), in 2020, renewable energy. . In February 2013, Estonia had a network of 165 fast chargers for electric cars (for a population of 1.3 million). This grew to 400 in 2022. [pdf]
Energy in Estonia has heavily depended on fossil fuels. Finland and Estonia are two of the last countries in the world still burning peat. Estonia has set a target of 100% of electricity production from renewable sources by 2030 and climate neutrality by 2050.
“Estonia is making great strides to reduce its reliance on oil shale and boost deployment of wind and solar generation” said IEA Deputy Executive Director Mary Burce Warlick. “It now needs to build on this success and accelerate the energy transition by aligning fiscal measures with its medium and long-term energy and climate goals.
Estonia’s ambitious targets require accelerated renewables deployment, increased electrification and phasing out oil shale generation while ensuring a just transition that maintains energy affordability and supports economic development in the oil shale region.
The main raw material for energy production – oil shale – is extracted from mines located in Eastern-Estonia and owned by the company. The group of Eesti Energia has three main operation areas: electricity generation, shale oil production, and sale and distribution of electricity. Its shares are owned by the Government of Estonia.
This IEA Energy Policy Review comes at a critical moment for Estonia, which is facing notable challenges amid the climate and energy crises and the Russian Federation’s invasion of Ukraine.
A European technology hub, Estonia will have an important role to play as a leader in energy sector digitalisation that can serve as a template for other countries, according to the report.
