In northern Sweden, the HYBRIT consortium has secured an extension of its temporary building permit for its underground hydrogen storage pilot in Luleå until 2031, allowing continued testing of a technology that early data suggest could cut variable hydrogen production costs by 25 to 40 percent.
The U.S. energy storage sector installed 57.6 GWh of new capacity in 2025, marking the largest single-year deployment in history.
Amazon has pledged more than 40GW of carbon-free energy capacity across over 700 projects worldwide, a portfolio the company says could power more than 12.1 million U.S. homes.
Power2X has acquired HyCC, a Netherlands-based developer of large-scale green hydrogen projects, marking a strategic consolidation in the European clean molecules sector.
The Netherlands is witnessing a shift in energy storage strategies as Greenchoice and Invest-NL invest in Zhero Systems, a producer of circular energy storage systems built from reused lithium-ion cells.
Dubai Electricity and Water Authority, DEWA, has intensified engagement with international research and hydrogen policy organizations, signaling a move from long-term target setting toward managing execution and system level risks.
South Korea’s coal phase down is exposing a practical challenge that extends beyond power markets. What happens to the land, labor, and grid assets built around large thermal power plants.
Japan added roughly 3 GW of battery energy storage capacity across utility scale and distributed assets by the end of 2024, according to industry estimates, but participation has remained concentrated among power companies, developers, and trading houses.
CF Industries’ decision to halt a planned 20 MW green hydrogen project at its Donaldsonville ammonia complex underscores the widening gap between early green hydrogen ambitions and projects that can clear today’s cost and policy hurdles.
Electrifying industrial process heat is already cheaper than fossil gas in parts of Europe, even under today’s unfavorable electricity pricing.
