Kuwait joins International Solar Alliance

Kuwait became member of International Solar Allaince recently. Kuwait knew the limitations of reliance on Fossil fuels and at the same time importance of renewable energy generation. As a petroleum exporting country and member of OPEC, kuwait feels sustainable energy development is the need of hour. That’s why it accepted India’s invitation to join India led international Solar Alliance.

What is International Solar Alliance :

The ISA is a collaborative initiative between India and France aimed at uniting efforts to combat climate change by implementing solar energy solutions. It was conceptualized on the side lines of COP21 in Paris in 2015. Following a 2020 amendment to its Framework Agreement, all UN member states are now eligible to join the Alliance. Currently, 100+ countries are signatories, with 90+ countries having ratified to become full members. Its mission is to unlock $1 trillion in solar investments by 2030 while reducing technology and financing costs.

The International Solar Alliance (ISA) collectively covers the deployment of solar energy and addresses key common challenges to the scaling up of use of solar energy to help member countries develop low-carbon growth trajectories.

Headquartered in India, the ISA collaborates with multilateral development banks, private and public sectors, civil society, and international institutions to implement cost-effective solar solutions, especially in Least Developed Countries (LDCs) and Small Island Developing States (SIDS) Member Countries.

What is Towards 1000’ strategy :

The ISA is guided by its “Towards 1000’ strategy, which aims to mobilise USD 1,000 billion of investments in solar energy solutions by 2030 while delivering energy access to 1,000 million people using clean energy solutions and resulting in the installation of 1,000 GW of solar energy capacity.
This would help mitigate global solar emissions to the tune of 1,000 million tonnes of CO, annually. To meet these goals, the ISA takes a programmatic approach. Currently, the ISA has nine comprehensive programmes, each focusing on a specific application that could help scale the deployment of solar.

International Solar Alliance vision :

The ISA strives to develop and deploy cost-effective and transformational energy solutions powered by the sun to help Member Countries develop low-carbon growth trajectories, with particular focus on delivering impact in countries categorized as Least Developed Countries (LDCs) and the Small Island Developing States (SIDS).

7th Session of ISA :

The 7th Session of the International Solar Alliance (ISA), which was held in New Delhi from November 3 to 6, 2024, focused on accelerating solar energy deployment across its Member Countries, particularly in regions with limited energy access. During this session, several significant initiatives, programs, and funding schemes aimed at supporting solar energy projects and fostering global cooperation were presented and discussed.
Today, the ISA represents 120 signatories, including 102 fully ratified member countries, making it a vital global coalition in the renewable energy landscape. The Assembly meets annually at the ISA’s headquarters to assess the impact of programs and activities on solar energy deployment, performance, reliability, cost, and financing scale.
