Solar photovoltaic capacity in the United Arab Emirates is projected to increase nearly fivefold over the next decade, rising from 6.7GW in 2025 to 32.3GW by 2035, according to analysis from GlobalData.
Project Kirkenær, the first permanent geological CO2 removal initiative by Norwegian developer Carbon Centric, has cleared a key milestone with the successful completion of the Puro.earth Preliminary Assessment.
Global Renewable Capacity Set to Double by 2031, but Two-Speed Expansion Is Already Underway
Global renewable energy installed capacity stood at 4.1TW in 2025. According to GlobalData’s latest “Renewable Energy: Strategic Intelligence” report, that figure is forecast to reach 8.4TW by 2031, a compound annual growth rate of 13% over six years.
MAX Power has initiated a financing round aiming to raise between C$4 million and C$20 million to accelerate development of its Saskatchewan natural hydrogen assets.
When roughly 20 million barrels of crude and oil products transited the Strait of Hormuz daily before hostilities escalated in late February, energy analysts largely treated oil and gas as symmetrically exposed to any closure. That assumption is now colliding with arithmetic.
European Commission Greenlights $283 Million for Carbon Capture in Antwerp’s Industrial Heartland
The European Commission has approved $283 million (€260 million) in Belgian state aid to support a major carbon capture and storage initiative in Antwerp, signaling renewed momentum for industrial decarbonization in Europe’s most concentrated chemical and manufacturing clusters.
Robert Bosch GmbH has introduced a new hydrogen fuel cell system designed specifically for public transport buses, expanding its portfolio of hydrogen propulsion technologies for commercial vehicles.
The United Kingdom’s hydrogen strategy is beginning to move from policy design to project execution. One of the first tangible signs of this transition is the final investment decision for the West Wales Hydrogen project, a 20 megawatt green hydrogen facility planned for Milford Haven.
German Researchers Develop Polymer System for On-Demand Hydrogen Production from Stored Solar Energy
Researchers from Ulm University and Friedrich Schiller University Jena have now demonstrated a material system capable of storing solar-derived energy for several days and converting it into hydrogen when required.
Flexible plastic packaging is projected to remain a major environmental challenge, with the Ellen MacArthur Foundation estimating 20 trillion items could enter oceans over the next 15 years. In response, the foundation’s latest report provides a structured framework for paper-based alternatives, aiming to ensure these solutions deliver genuine environmental benefits and support a circular economy.
