Uzbekistan has taken a significant step toward modernizing its power sector with the commercial start of a 501-megawatt-hour battery energy storage system at ACWA Power’s Riverside Solar project, according to a filing on the Saudi stock exchange.

Borealis and Borouge have entered a partnership aimed at building a fully integrated circular waste management and polyolefin recycling system in Indonesia, a market where circularity ambitions have repeatedly collided with infrastructure, cost, and governance constraints.

Final investment decisions remain the main bottleneck for Europe’s green hydrogen pipeline, which makes ITM Power’s latest notice to proceed notable more for what it signals than for its size.

More than 30 emissions trading systems are now in force or under development worldwide, according to the International Carbon Action Partnership, and the maritime sector is increasingly caught between overlapping carbon regimes.

Kazakhstan’s pitch to deepen energy ties with Germany comes as Europe continues to recalibrate its supply chains under tighter climate and security constraints.

South Australia’s retreat from state led green hydrogen has crystallized around a blunt admission from Treasurer Tom Koutsantonis. Gas, not hydrogen, will underpin the recovery and future operation of the Whyalla Steelworks, at least for the foreseeable election cycle.

Tesla’s agreement to pay Nevada $200,000 for operating battery recycling equipment without an air quality permit exposes a quieter risk in the clean transport transition: regulatory oversight struggling to keep pace with rapidly scaling industrial processes.

SunHydrogen, Inc. has signed a Technology and Manufacturing Services agreement with CTF Solar GmbH, a subsidiary of China National Building Materials Group, in an effort to move its sunlight-driven hydrogen panels closer to industrial reality.

Roughly two years after cutting most Russian gas imports, the European Union is recalibrating its external energy strategy around a smaller group of suppliers, with Algeria emerging as a critical pillar.

Global electrolyzer manufacturing capacity has expanded faster than confirmed hydrogen projects, creating a widening gap between supply and near-term demand. That imbalance is now reshaping industrial strategies in Spain, where Cummins’ green hydrogen electrolyzer plant in Guadalajara is facing a workforce reduction after failing to meet production and job creation expectations tied to public funding.
