This dimension marks whether an energy project is planned, under construction, operating or retired. Wikipedia notes that "fossil-fuel subsidies are slowing the energy transition," a pace of change that affects whether individual projects actually reach completion or stall. Browsing by status separates projects that are operating from those still planned or already retired.
