Last update: 9 hours ago

Clean Energy Advocacy Shake-Up: Steve McBee launched AMPED, a new U.S. clean-energy advocacy “operating platform” aimed at challenging major Washington groups he says have been too soft on renewables. Forest Recovery Signals: A Costa Rica study using thousands of hours of sound recordings found restored forests under the country’s PES program are increasingly “alive,” with wildlife activity sounding closer to protected areas than pastures. Utility Billing Gets an AI-Ready Upgrade: JASEC selected Congero’s Embrix platform to unify prepaid and postpaid electricity billing in a cloud system built for AI-ready revenue management. Regional Tech & Power Demand: Costa Rica’s renewable-heavy grid is drawing fresh attention as AI data centers add pressure on electricity—and potentially water—capacity. Trade Tension: Costa Rica escalated its dispute with Panama over agricultural blockades, moving toward “international actions” after years of tariff and phytosanitary fights. Digital Shift in Costa Rica: TikTok has overtaken Instagram as the country’s second most used social network, hitting 58% adult usage on mobile.
