The different decarbonisation scenarios accessed reveal that a growth in renewables would lead to low energy costs which would benefit all sectors in the short term, particularly the more energy dependent agriculture and industry sectors. While the report shows that public debt is predicted to increase in all scenarios, it concludes that the impact on the economy will not be significant given that most green investments will come from the private sector. <\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>What would it take? <\/strong>The report estimates that around USD 27-35 bn in investments will be needed by 2050 to implement Tunisia\u2019s energy transition. While some efforts have been made to increase renewables investments in the country so far, the WB recommends speeding up the process to achieve the discussed energy transition targets and achieve the calculated economic benefits outlined in the report. <\/p>\n<p class=\"tag-border-left\">DANGER ZONE- <\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>US observatory records l<\/strong><strong>argest <\/strong><strong>CO2 increase on record: <\/strong>The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration\u2019s(NOAA)observatory located on top of a volcano in Hawaii has measured a record-breaking y-o-y increase in CO2 in March of 4.7 parts per mn (ppm) compared to last year, <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.theguardian.com\/environment\/article\/2024\/may\/09\/carbon-dioxide-atmosphere-record\" style=\"\" rel=\"noopener\">The Guardian<\/a> reported on Thursday, citing findings by US\u2019 <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/keelingcurve.ucsd.edu\/2024\/05\/08\/largest-year-over-year-gain-in-keeling-curve-set-in-march\/\" style=\"\" rel=\"noopener\">Scripps Institution of Oceanography<\/a>.

company <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/hysata.com\/\" style=\"\" rel=\"noopener\">Hysata\u2019s<\/a> latest series B funding round, according to a <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/hysata.com\/news\/hysata-announces-111m-usd-series-b-investment-round\/\" style=\"\" rel=\"noopener\">statement<\/a> released last week. <\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>Where\u2019s the money going? <\/strong>The USD 111 mn secured from the round will go towards expanding Hysata\u2019s production capacity and developing technology for gigawatt-scale electrolyzer manufacturing for use in decarbonizing heavy industries. This marks the largest Series B funding round in Australian cleantech history.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>Who else is in?<\/strong> International investor <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.bp.com\/en\/global\/bp-ventures.html\" style=\"\" rel=\"noopener\">BP Ventures<\/a> and alternative asset management firm based in Hong Kong <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.templewater.com\/\" style=\"\" rel=\"noopener\">Templewate<\/a> co-led the round with investments of USD 10 mn each, the statement notes. The round got backing from existing investors IP Group Australia, Kiko Ventures, Virescent Ventures, Hostplus, Vestas Ventures and BlueScopeX. Other major strategic and financial investors include POSCO Holdings, POSCO E&amp;C, IMM Investment Hong Kong, Shinhan Financial Group, Twin Towers Ventures, and TelstraSuper.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>How does its tech work?<\/strong> Hysata's method uses capillary action to avoid the formation of bubbles during electrolysis which typically leads to energy loss, <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.bloomberg.com\/news\/articles\/2024-05-08\/australian-green-hydrogen-startup-raises-111-million-to-make-gas-cheaper?srnd=homepage-europe\" style=\"\" rel=\"noopener\">Bloomberg<\/a> reported last week. Capillary action is the process of a liquid rising through a narrow space, one of the ways trees raise water to their leaves. <\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>Why this matters:<\/strong> The production of green hydrogen is expected to surge from 400k tons this year to 9.6 mn metric tons by 2030, according to BloombergNEF. Currently, most hydrogen is produced using fossil fuels, resulting in significant CO2 emissions, Bloomberg adds. However, Hysata's technology offers a more climate-friendly alternative. Hysata aims to commercialize its technology, which could substantially reduce the cost of producing emissions-free hydrogen by 2025.<\/p>\n\n\t<\/div><!-- .entry-content -->\n\n\t\n<\/article><!-- #post-${ID} -->\n\n\n    <div class=\"tags-section\">\n        <div class=\"f-graphik\">Tags:<\/div>\n        <div class=\"tags-list\">\n                            <a rel=\"tag\" href=\"https:\/\/enterpriseam.com\/climate\/tag\/green-tech\/\">green tech<\/a>\n                <!-- <span class=\"sep\">,&nbsp;<\/span> -->\n                            <a rel=\"tag\" href=\"https:\/\/enterpriseam.com\/climate\/tag\/investment-watch\/\">INVESTMENT WATCH<\/a>\n                <!-- <span class=\"sep\">,&nbsp;<\/span> -->\n                            <a rel=\"tag\" href=\"https:\/\/enterpriseam.com\/climate\/tag\/oman\/\">Oman<\/a>\n                <!-- <span class=\"sep\">,&nbsp;<\/span> -->\n                    <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n            <\/div>\r\n        <\/div> <!-- \/.story -->\r\n    \n    \n\n    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n<section id=\"84121\" class=\"issue-section \">\n<div class=\"issue-section__content\">\n<div class=\"stories\">            <!-- Show divider before story section -->\r\n        <div \r\n            class=\"\r\n                story-section            \"\r\n            id=\"84121\">\r\n            \r\n                <div class=\"issue-story-header text-center\">\r\n                    <div class=\"index-number\">5<\/div>\r\n\r\n                    <p class=\"f-graphik\">EARNINGS WATCH<\/p>\r\n                    <h3 class=\"story-title\">\r\n                        <a href=\"https:\/\/enterpriseam.com\/climate\/2024\/05\/13\/acwa-powers-net-income-ticks-up-in-1q-while-dewa-posts-a-14-drop\/\">\r\n                            Acwa Power\u2019s net income ticks up in 1Q while Dewa posts a 14% drop                        <\/a>\r\n                    <\/h3>\r\n\r\n                    \r\n\t\t\t\t\t\n<div class=\"cta\">\n    <div class=\"cta__btn share-dropdown-cta dropdown-toggle-btn\" style=\"position:relative\">\n        <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/ent.news\/internal\/408834.svg\" alt=\"\">\n        Share Story\n        <!-- Dropdown Menu -->\n        <ul class=\"share-menu\">\n            <li class=\"list-inline-item\">\n                <a href=\"https:\/\/enterpriseam.com\/climate\/2024\/05\/13\/acwa-powers-net-income-ticks-up-in-1q-while-dewa-posts-a-14-drop\/\" target=\"_blank\">\n                    Open in new tab                    <!-- <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"assets\/media\/placeholder\/svg\/new-tab.svg\" alt=\"\"> -->\n                <\/a>\n            <\/li>\n            <li class=\"list-inline-item\">\n                <a href=\"#\" target=\"_blank\" onclick=\"event.preventDefault();
