Minnesota officials approved expansion plans for the Xcel Energy Sherco Solar project that will become one of the largest in the nation. The expansion will add a 250-MW array to the 460-MW array, with all phases expected to be completed by 2025. The project, with a total capacity of 710 MW, will power more than 150,000 homes annually. Xcel plans to close its three coal-fired power plants in Becker in 2030.

Suzlon Group has bagged a new order for 29.4 MW of BrightNight wind installation capacity in Maharashtra as part of its 100 MW wind-solar hybrid project in Osmanabad.

Sterlite Power has acquired Beawar Transmission Ltd to undertake power transmission projects in Rajasthan. The special purpose vehicle (SPV) was awarded to Sterlite Power through a tariff-based competitive tender in August.

This is Sterlite Power’s 19th transmission project in India and manages projects worth Rs 12,000 crore.

Seventeen countries, including France, Chile and Kenya, stressed the need for systemic transformation in all economic sectors, driven by a "global phase-out of fossil fuels". They acknowledge that emissions-reducing technologies play a minimal role in decarbonizing the energy system and cannot be used to justify the expansion of fossil fuels. Leaders stressed the importance of restoring and protecting carbon sinks in fighting climate change and called for ambitious global targets on renewable energy and energy efficiency. They urged the mobilization of trillions of dollars in funding for climate action and the implementation of reforms to the financial system to address the multiple crises facing the world. Leaders also called for the Global Stocktake (GST) as a turning point and highlighted the importance of closing ambition and implementation gaps on all aspects of climate action during this critical decade and beyond.
