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.

In the heart of Madhya Pradesh’s steel belt, furnaces burn day and night, producing the metal that underpins India’s highways, railways, and high-rises. For workers, the economic payoff is clear, but so is the environmental cost. India’s steel sector emits more than 2.5 tonnes of CO₂ per tonne of steel produced, significantly above the global average, and heavy industries remain the country’s largest industrial greenhouse gas emitters.

Morocco is accelerating its push into green hydrogen and e-fuels as TAQA Morocco and Spanish energy firm Moeve announce a preliminary agreement with the Moroccan government to reserve land for a large-scale green ammonia and industrial fuel project.

Cemex Ventures’ latest investment in Waste to Energy Advanced Solutions places waste derived hydrogen and syngas back into focus as potential decarbonization tools, while also raising questions about scalability, cost competitiveness, and real emissions impact in clinker production.
