Roughly one third of anthropogenic carbon dioxide emissions are already absorbed by the ocean, according to long standing global carbon budget estimates. As emissions trajectories continue to overshoot mitigation pathways, U.S. lawmakers are now pushing to examine whether that natural sink can be responsibly enhanced through targeted intervention.

TotalEnergies has agreed to sell a 50 percent stake in a portfolio of 11 battery storage projects to Allianz Global Investors, advancing nearly 800 MW of new capacity scheduled to enter operation by 2028.

Central Asia’s energy transition faces a structural paradox. The region holds vast renewable potential but remains heavily anchored to fossil fuel export revenues, leaving low-carbon strategies largely confined to policy discussions rather than deployment.

Honeywell and Verso Energy have agreed to deploy electro-sustainable aviation fuel production across seven sites in France, Finland, and the United States, relying on licensed eFining methanol-to-jet technology from Honeywell UOP.

Biomass already accounts for the largest share of renewable energy potential in Malaysia’s power mix, driven by the country’s agricultural output rather than variable weather conditions.

Russia’s cumulative renewable power capacity is forecast to nearly double over the next decade, rising from 9.8GW in 2025 to 18.4GW by 2035, according to GlobalData projections.

Oriental Weavers has completed independent verification of its full carbon footprint, reporting approximately 102,000 metric tons of CO2e from Scope 1 and 2 emissions and a further 486,000 metric tons of CO2e from Scope 3 activities across its value chain.

Utility scale energy storage additions in the United States reached 58 gigawatt hours in 2025, a 30 percent year over year increase that pushed total installed capacity to 137 gigawatt hours, according to the latest data from Solar Energy Industries Association.

Natural hydrogen has reemerged as a niche but closely watched segment of the energy transition, driven by the prospect of bypassing electrolyzer costs that still dominate green hydrogen economics.

Tata Motors Limited has signed a memorandum of understanding with V.O. Chidambaranar Port Authority to deploy 40 hydrogen internal combustion engine powered heavy duty prime movers at the port of Tuticorin over the next two years.
