This report by Ember analyses Chinese customs data from the first half of 2023, detailing a 34% increase in solar module exports.

This report, funded by the Nordic Council of Ministers, examines transboundary climate risks—indirect, cross-border impacts of climate change—and provides guidance for Nordic governments and business leaders to enhance adaptation and resilience through regional and international cooperation.

This report by the International Institute for Sustainable Development (IISD) examines how trade policy, specifically tariffs, can be used by developing countries to balance the goal of maximizing local economic benefits from clean energy investments with the need to minimize project costs. It analyzes the bill of materials for wind and solar projects to identify which components are suited for local production and evaluates the trade profiles of several countries to provide a framework for aligning trade and energy policies.
