What are the latest developments in climate technology?

Recent developments in climate technology include the introduction of next-generation solar technologies like perovskite tandem solar cells, which enhance efficiency and reduce costs by combining perovskites with traditional silicon^[1]. Additionally, enhanced geothermal systems are emerging, enabling more widespread access to geothermal energy through human-created sources that increase heat extraction^[1].

The World Economic Forum highlights six digital technologies critical for climate adaptation, including AI for advanced weather models, drones for monitoring climate risks, and the Internet of Things for real-time data collection^[2]. Innovative solutions like a supercapacitor made from cement and carbon black for energy storage are also being researched^[3]. Moreover, a new 2023 report aims to assess the effectiveness of technology transfer and its role in climate action^[4].
