Tesla’s agreement to pay Nevada $200,000 for operating battery recycling equipment without an air quality permit exposes a quieter risk in the clean transport transition: regulatory oversight struggling to keep pace with rapidly scaling industrial processes.

SunHydrogen, Inc. has signed a Technology and Manufacturing Services agreement with CTF Solar GmbH, a subsidiary of China National Building Materials Group, in an effort to move its sunlight-driven hydrogen panels closer to industrial reality.

Roughly two years after cutting most Russian gas imports, the European Union is recalibrating its external energy strategy around a smaller group of suppliers, with Algeria emerging as a critical pillar.

Global electrolyzer manufacturing capacity has expanded faster than confirmed hydrogen projects, creating a widening gap between supply and near-term demand. That imbalance is now reshaping industrial strategies in Spain, where Cummins’ green hydrogen electrolyzer plant in Guadalajara is facing a workforce reduction after failing to meet production and job creation expectations tied to public funding.

Morocco is accelerating its push into green hydrogen and e-fuels as TAQA Morocco and Spanish energy firm Moeve announce a preliminary agreement with the Moroccan government to reserve land for a large-scale green ammonia and industrial fuel project.

Data from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration shows that battery related recalls now account for a growing share of electric vehicle safety actions in the US, even as overall EV fire incidents remain statistically rare compared with internal combustion vehicles.

The strategic recalibration underway at Korea’s leading battery manufacturers reflects a hard data point confronting the North American market. After years of capacity expansion tied to electric vehicle growth forecasts, US automakers are now pulling back.

As hydrogen projects face rising costs and a growing list of cancellations globally, new data from DNV’s Oil and Gas Decarbonisation in the Gulf Region report underscores why the technology remains strategically central in the Middle East.

By early 2026, Europe’s hydrogen sector had reached an inflection point. Project pipelines remained large on paper, but financing constraints, demand uncertainty, and delayed offtake agreements were forcing a reckoning across the value chain. Hyvolution 2026 in Paris offered a clearer signal of where the market is actually heading.

We are addicted to bad news. In the climate conversation, even the well-intentioned are often paralyzed by the idea that…
