Shafaqna English– In the first half of this year, China lost clean energy equivalent to Mexico’s annual power demand, owing to saturated transmission capacity. Meanwhile, in many parts of the world—including Australia and Japan—the pace of renewable plant construction has far outstripped the rate of grid modernization.
The phenomenon known as “curtailment”—the deliberate disconnection of wind and solar inputs when the grid reaches full capacity—is rapidly becoming a global headache for green energy. It also exposes a sobering reality: the world is not yet ready to abandon fossil fuels, and power grids face serious physical limitations.
