Power Balance: How Emerging Economies Can Grow Access to Electricity and Help Decarbonize the Energy Sector
Like many emerging economies, Bangladesh and Vietnam share a thirst for electricity. Powered by rapid economic growth, the former expects demand for electricity to jump 250% by 2040, while the latter will see more than a doubling of its demand in a decade, increases that dwarf the typical annual changes in advanced economies like the U.S. Both countries share something else in common: Despite being small contributors to worldwide greenhouse gas emissions, each nation sees climate change as a threat to its population and prosperity.

Crushing Pollution: This Technology And Software Will Make A Huge Coal Power Plant In India Cleaner
Locals call Ramagundam the city of energy. The largest power plant in South India standing nearby along the banks of the Godavari River, for example, is capable of generating a whopping 2,600 megawatts of lifeblood electricity. That's enough to power 20 million local homes. The region has been investing in new power stations to meet its mammoth energy needs, but a major effort is also underway to modernize the existing fleet and make it efficient enough to meet the Indian government's ambitious targets to reduce air pollution.
