Accessibility Statement

Our Commitment to Inclusive Design

Renewable Observer is committed to making our digital platform accessible and inclusive to everyone, regardless of ability or technology.

As a global media company reporting on the future of energy, we believe that access to crucial industry information, market intelligence, and educational content should be universally available. We are continuously working to improve the user experience for all our readers and applying the relevant accessibility standards.

Measures to Support Accessibility

Renewable Observer takes the following measures to ensure the accessibility of our website:

  • Integrating accessibility into our procurement and web development practices.
  • Utilizing modern frontend frameworks and semantic HTML to ensure compatibility with assistive technologies.
  • Providing clear, consistent navigation and structural layouts.
  • Ensuring adequate color contrast between text and backgrounds (such as our Forest Green and Charcoal text against Off-White backgrounds).

Conformance Status

The Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) defines requirements for designers and developers to improve accessibility for people with disabilities. It defines three levels of conformance: Level A, Level AA, and Level AAA.

Renewable Observer aims to conform to WCAG 2.1 Level AA. While we strive to adhere to these accepted guidelines and standards for accessibility and usability, it is not always possible to do so in all areas of the website immediately.

Known Limitations

Despite our best efforts to ensure accessibility of Renewable Observer, there may be some limitations. Please note the following potential issues:

  • Third-Party Content: Some third-party embeds, advertisements (e.g., Google AdSense units), or interactive data widgets may not be fully accessible, as we do not control the codebase for these external elements.
  • Archived Documents: Older reports, PDFs, or downloadable media kits may not be fully optimized for screen readers.
