India’s recent green ammonia auctions, conducted by the Solar Energy Corporation of India Limited, have captured global attention with record-low bid prices, some dipping below $600 per ton. This unprecedented pricing milestone poses questions regarding the mechanisms that allowed such competitive bids. Critical to these low-cost bids were the grid fee waivers, which provided projects the flexibility to source power from the lowest-cost regions across India. This competitive pricing framework could potentially position India as a leading exporter of green ammonia, contingent upon the construction and completion of the winning projects. The implications for India’s green ammonia exports, particularly to…

The European Central Bank (ECB) is preparing to tighten collateral rules for loans tied to high-emitting activities, but early estimates suggest that the shift may barely register for the continent’s largest fossil fuel companies. From 2026, the ECB will introduce a “climate factor” into its collateral framework — the system that governs how banks pledge assets such as corporate bonds in exchange for central-bank liquidity. Bonds financing carbon-intensive projects will receive deeper discounts, or haircuts, than those backing lower-risk activities. ECB officials frame the measure as a safeguard against climate-related financial risks, not as an explicit environmental penalty. Christine Lagarde,…

Global hydrogen investments have surpassed $570 billion in announced projects through 2030, underscoring growing confidence in the sector’s decarbonization potential. Yet only $120 billion (21%) has reached final investment decision (FID), reflecting persistent uncertainty around offtake agreements, permitting, and infrastructure readiness.

A flagship clean-hydrogen venture in the Pacific Northwest is faltering after Portland General Electric (PGE) and Mitsubishi Power withdrew support for a $1 billion production facility planned near Boardman, Oregon.

As U.S. electricity demand rises and supply chains for critical minerals tighten, national laboratories are accelerating research on alternatives to lithium-ion batteries.

Premier Green Innovations Pvt Ltd (PGI) and technology developer Entity-1 have signed a three-year, Rs 500 crore agreement to build a refinery network that converts agricultural and industrial residues into hydrogen, methanol, and ethyl acetate.

The circular economy isn’t just another buzzword cluttering your LinkedIn feed—it’s reshaping how smart companies tell their stories. And frankly, most are getting it wrong. That’s why Circular Business Review (CBR), a platform known for dissecting—not celebrating—circular economy claims, has partnered with Energy News, the global energy sector’s go-to source for news, analysis, and strategy on energy transition. Together, they’re building a content alliance designed to confront the widening gap between decarbonization promise and the material, infrastructural, and lifecycle performance that actually moves the needle. This is not about amplifying sustainability slogans—it’s about asking the uncomfortable questions your competitors hope…

Australia’s ambitions to establish itself as a hub for e-fuels production have taken a step forward, with HIF Global confirming that its proposed $2 billion green hydrogen–based methanol facility in Tasmania will now be built on the site of the former Burnie paper mill rather than its previously selected location in Hampshire.

AI-driven data centers are emerging as one of the fastest-growing loads on global electricity systems, with some forecasts warning that U.S. facilities alone could add up to 50 GW of demand by 2030—equivalent to the consumption of every household in California.

Poland-based Hynfra and the Government of Mauritania signed a Framework Agreement for the development of a $1.5 billion integrated green ammonia facility.
