Egypt’s green hydrogen ambitions are increasingly defined by execution rather than announcements, with Scatec’s 100 megawatt project in the Ain Sokhna Industrial Zone now serving as a functioning pilot for export-oriented renewable hydrogen and ammonia.

With EU recycled content mandates approaching, the Netherlands is accelerating investment into plastics recycling pathways that extend beyond PET, where regulatory approval remains limited.

India added more than 49 GW of non fossil fuel capacity in 2025, lifting total installed clean power to 266.78 GW, yet the country’s green hydrogen ambitions remain constrained less by generation than by demand certainty.

Carbon markets remain a marginal contributor to global climate finance, but Nigeria is positioning them as a material revenue stream within its broader energy transition strategy.

Chile’s rapid buildout of solar and wind has exposed a structural constraint that capacity additions alone cannot solve: curtailment and volatility in a grid dominated by intermittent generation.

Root-Power has obtained planning permission on appeal to develop a £45 million, 100MW battery energy storage system near Kegworth in Leicestershire, marking a significant step in the region’s shift away from fossil fuels.

Fusion Fuel’s decision to launch a €30 million green hydrogen investment platform signals a shift toward financing structures aimed at managing project risk and accelerating investment decisions rather than simply expanding hydrogen capacity ambitions.

Second life electric vehicle batteries are edging closer to commercial relevance in the UK energy system, but questions around performance consistency, integration risk, and long term value remain unresolved.

Africa’s green hydrogen pipeline tells a story of scale without execution: while developers have announced roughly 38 gigawatts of planned clean hydrogen capacity across the continent, only about 17 megawatts are currently operational.

BP’s decision to write down up to $5 billion from its gas and low carbon energy division places a hard number on what has been an increasingly visible problem for the company: its early and aggressive push into renewables has failed to deliver competitive returns relative to its peers.
