Somewhere in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean, a massive cargo ship pitches in a deep-water swell. The ambient temperature…

Europe’s carbon capture and storage landscape is entering a phase where early-stage geological validation is becoming as critical as industrial deployment. Croatia’s allocation of €2.7 million in EU-backed funding for CCS development reflects this shift, targeting foundational data gaps that continue to constrain large-scale carbon storage investment across the region.

China’s installed renewable energy capacity reached approximately 2.4 billion kilowatts by March 2026, accounting for more than 60 percent of total national power capacity, signaling a structural shift in the world’s largest electricity system.

Egypt is intensifying its push into the green hydrogen market through a national program designed to address one of the sector’s core barriers: project readiness. Launched by the Suez Canal Economic Zone in partnership with the United Nations Industrial Development Organization, the National Clean Hydrogen Program targets early-stage constraints that have slowed hydrogen deployment across emerging markets.

Jinko ESS has signed a strategic cooperation agreement to deploy a 1 GWh portfolio of battery energy storage projects across the region, focused primarily on grid-side and utility-scale applications.

Oriana Power Limited has established a wholly owned subsidiary, Evercore Projects Private Limited, to consolidate its presence across power generation, engineering, procurement and construction, and emerging clean fuel technologies including green hydrogen and compressed biogas.

Wind and solar generated a combined 30 percent of the European Union’s electricity in 2025, surpassing fossil fuels at 29 percent for the first time and marking a structural shift in the bloc’s power system. This milestone reflects both accelerated renewable deployment and a policy-driven effort to reduce dependence on imported energy following recent supply disruptions.

Jordan has signed a memorandum of understanding with the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development to support its goal of sourcing 50 percent of energy from renewables by 2033 through a more integrated approach combining project financing, regulatory reform, and infrastructure development.

Brazil’s installed green hydrogen capacity has reached 10 MW with the commissioning of a new 5 MW electrolyzer in São Paulo state, a modest figure that highlights both early progress and structural limitations in the country’s hydrogen economy.

A $665 million final investment decision on a 260,000 tonne per year low-carbon fertilizer plant in Paraguay marks a notable inflection point for hydrogen-based industrial decarbonization. The Villeta project, led by ATOME PLC, is positioned as one of the first industrial-scale facilities to reach financial close based on commercial fundamentals rather than direct government subsidy support.
