US electric vehicle sales growth has slowed compared with earlier in the decade, prompting automakers to recalibrate capital allocation, as exemplified by Ford’s decision to cancel plans for a new pure electric van and a fully electric F150 pickup following the Trump administration’s removal of federal purchase incentives and easing of vehicle emissions regulations.
Europe’s hydrogen pipeline is growing on paper faster than it is on the ground. While gigawatt-scale electrolyzer announcements and national hydrogen strategies continue to dominate headlines, deployment timelines are slipping, permitting queues are lengthening, and investment decisions are being deferred.
Getech has secured its first contract in stimulated geologic hydrogen, partnering with GeoKiln on a pilot project in Minnesota that targets hydrogen production directly within iron-rich subsurface formations rather than at the surface.
Global demand for silver continues to climb, driven by its critical role in electronics, solar panels, and other clean technologies, yet only around 20 percent of supply is currently recycled.
The European Union is moving to broaden its Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (CBAM) to include manufactured goods such as car parts, household appliances, and construction equipment, signaling a shift from targeting raw materials to addressing embedded emissions deeper in global supply chains.
Fortescue Metals Group has revised the power purchase agreement for its Holmaneset green hydrogen and ammonia project in Norway, effectively postponing the plant’s operational start beyond 2029.
At H2 MEET, while electrolyzers, mobility platforms, and hydrogen infrastructure maps dominated the exhibition floor, 3M delivered a perspective that cut across the hype: hydrogen today does not face a technological barrier in production or transport. Its primary constraint is industrial uptake.
ABB and HDF Energy’s joint-development agreement (JDA) to design high-power hydrogen fuel cell units for marine applications addresses a technical gap that has constrained hydrogen’s role at sea.
Nova Power & Gas, a subsidiary of the E-INFRA Group, has officially commissioned Romania’s largest battery energy storage system (BESS), a 200 MW facility with 400 MWh of storage capacity in Florești, Cluj County.
