As global electricity systems grow increasingly dependent on renewable energy, precision in managing energy storage assets has become a decisive factor in grid stability and project profitability. Wärtsilä’s new GEMS Pulse platform directly addresses this operational challenge by transforming raw battery data into actionable intelligence—aiming to unlock the full financial and technical potential of energy storage systems.

Longi Hydrogen, a leading Chinese electrolyzer manufacturer, has obtained regional government approval to construct a 1GW alkaline-electrolyzer production facility in Inner Mongolia, signaling a significant expansion in China’s green hydrogen infrastructure.

Spain-based renewable energy developer Iberdrola has acquired the proposed 270 MW / 1,080 MWh Tungkillo Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) in South Australia for $492 million from UK-headquartered clean energy firm RES Australia.

VSPARTICLE’s nanoporous catalyst layer technology has passed peer-reviewed validation, confirming performance benchmarks that could mitigate one of the most pressing bottlenecks in proton exchange membrane (PEM) electrolyzer scaling—the scarcity of iridium.

Lhyfe inaugurated its first commercial site in Germany, marking a major step in the decarbonization of mobility and industrial sectors.

Despite record renewable capacity additions of 582 GW in 2024, the world must nearly double its annual deployment rate to 1,122 GW—a 93% increase—to meet the COP28 target of tripling renewable capacity to 11.2 TW by 2030.

By 2030, data centres are projected to consume 6% of Australia’s grid-supplied electricity — a share larger than that of the entire healthcare and social assistance sector.

Japan has inaugurated its largest green hydrogen production facility in Hokuto City, Yamanashi Prefecture—a ¥18.6 billion ($122 million) project that could redefine the role of hydrogen in industrial decarbonization.

The International Maritime Organisation faces a decisive vote this week on whether to impose binding emissions targets on an industry responsible for moving 90% of global trade.

Scotland’s bid to decarbonize its whisky distilleries and heavy industries through green hydrogen has hit a serious setback.
