Germany’s ambition to anchor a hydrogen based industrial transition is colliding with hard infrastructure timelines and unresolved cost pressures. That tension is visible in the decision by transmission system operator Ontras Gastransport to commission nearly 110 kilometers of hydrogen pipelines to supply steelmaker Salzgitter, even as large parts of Europe’s green steel pipeline remain exposed to market uncertainty.
Huawei and Aggreko Bet on Utility-Scale Batteries as Brazil’s Amazon Tests Energy Storage Economics
China’s Huawei will supply batteries to British power producer Aggreko for what both companies describe as Brazil’s largest energy storage system to date, supporting renewable microgrids across the state of Amazonas.
London has unveiled what is believed to be the UK’s first large-scale circular economy hub for construction materials, designed to keep resources in circulation rather than sending them to landfill.
DRIFT Energy and Enapter have signed a collaboration agreement to adapt anion exchange membrane electrolyser technology for deployment at sea, a move that directly addresses one of the sector’s most persistent technical bottlenecks.
U.S. Lawmakers Move to Formalize Marine Carbon Removal Research as Ocean-Based Climate Tools Face Scrutiny
Roughly one third of anthropogenic carbon dioxide emissions are already absorbed by the ocean, according to long standing global carbon budget estimates. As emissions trajectories continue to overshoot mitigation pathways, U.S. lawmakers are now pushing to examine whether that natural sink can be responsibly enhanced through targeted intervention.
TotalEnergies has agreed to sell a 50 percent stake in a portfolio of 11 battery storage projects to Allianz Global Investors, advancing nearly 800 MW of new capacity scheduled to enter operation by 2028.
Central Asia’s energy transition faces a structural paradox. The region holds vast renewable potential but remains heavily anchored to fossil fuel export revenues, leaving low-carbon strategies largely confined to policy discussions rather than deployment.
Electro-SAF Scales Beyond Biofuels as Honeywell and Verso Target Multi-Region Production
Honeywell and Verso Energy have agreed to deploy electro-sustainable aviation fuel production across seven sites in France, Finland, and the United States, relying on licensed eFining methanol-to-jet technology from Honeywell UOP.
Malaysia Bets on Biomass and Carbon Management as Research Targets Scalable Low-Carbon Energy
Biomass already accounts for the largest share of renewable energy potential in Malaysia’s power mix, driven by the country’s agricultural output rather than variable weather conditions.
Russia’s 18.4GW Renewable Target by 2035 Reflects Industrial Policy More Than Energy Transition
Russia’s cumulative renewable power capacity is forecast to nearly double over the next decade, rising from 9.8GW in 2025 to 18.4GW by 2035, according to GlobalData projections.
