Despite last year’s surge of$1.8 trillion in clean energy investments worldwide, investment remains below what is needed to meet the COP28 target of tripling renewable capacity by 2030, according to the latest EY Renewable Energy Country Attractiveness Index (RECAI).
This edition of RECAI focuses on BESS. According to the report, the U.S., bolstered by a 30% IRA tax credit, takes the top spot in the ranking of the world’s most attractive markets for BESS investment. China with strong government support, subsidies and plans to reduce costs, is second. The U.K., with its sophisticated energy market design and new energy bill classifying BESS as a generation asset, rounds out the top three.
A fourfold increase in global BESS deployment is forecast from 2023 to 2030, reaching 572 GW.
“Scaling up battery energy storage systems can help solve multiple problems holding up clean energy progress, including stabilizing and strengthening network infrastructure and enabling more distributed energy resources to connect to the grid,” says EY’s Arnaud de Giovanni.
“Focusing on four factors can help investors navigate this complex, highly regionalized and fast-changing market. These include building a resilient investment case, taking steps to maintain technology competitiveness, establishing the optimal business model or financing structure and mitigating supply chain risks.”

I’m not sure it’s as simple as this, insofar as Bush 41 and 43 weren’t criminal sociopaths.
I happened to be driving through Manhattan on the very day that Colin Powell was addressing the United Nations just a few miles away and claimed, and I think honestly, that Saddam Hussein had “weapons of mass destruction,” and must be stopped by a U.S. military invasion.
Contrast that against what we’re doing in Iran. Fifteen years ago, the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA), included Iran, the P5+1 nations (the United States, China, Russia, France, the United Kingdom, and Germany), alongside the European Union made an agreement in which most of the developed world agreed that Iran must not have a nuclear weapon.
That stood firmly in place until Trump’s latest war crime, which is costing lives and choking the world economy, solely to defend our president’s neuroses.
The Brennan Center at NYU’s seminal report on this issue, The Truth About Voter Fraud, found that most reported incidents of voter fraud are actually traceable to other sources, such as clerical errors or bad data matching practices. The report reviewed elections that had been meticulously studied for voter fraud and found incident rates between 0.0003 percent and 0.0025 percent.
Does that stop liars like Mike Lee from spreading disinformation of the subject? Of course not.
There is no judgement day. There is no Saint Peter standing in front of the Pearly Gates discerning good from evil and acting according.
That’s a lucky break for Mike Lee.
