In the Baltic region, Estonia’s plans to position itself as a strategic hydrogen transit corridor are facing direct competition from an offshore alternative that could bypass the country entirely and reshape regional clean energy investment flows.

China’s battery sector is entering a new competitive phase as manufacturers search for alternatives to lithium-based chemistries amid rising resource pressure, geopolitical supply concerns, and intensifying demand for stationary storage.

Thyssenkrupp Polysius has launched a wholly owned subsidiary, Thyssenkrupp Calvion, focused on oxyfuel applications and other carbon dioxide reduction technologies aimed at heavy industry.

HSBC has launched a $4 billion Sustainability and Transition Credit Facility in mainland China aimed at supporting companies operating across…

Saudi Arabian Refineries Company, known as SARCO, has signed a non binding memorandum of understanding with China’s Ally Hydrogen Energy Co., Ltd. to jointly develop a green ammonia production plant alongside a manufacturing and assembly hub for hydrogen production and purification equipment.

China, where coal-based blast furnaces still account for about 90 percent of steel production and roughly 15 percent of national CO2 emissions, is expanding its hydrogen strategy beyond transport into sectors including steelmaking, shipping, aviation, and chemicals.

Egypt is positioning green hydrogen and Sustainable Aviation Fuel as part of a broader strategy to align its aviation sector with tightening international emissions standards and emerging low-carbon fuel markets.

EDP has halted its planned green hydrogen project in Aboño, northern Spain, citing delays in the Spanish government’s implementation of European hydrogen regulations that are expected to define usage mandates, market incentives, and compliance frameworks.

Global carbon accounting still prioritizes large industrial emitters and engineered removal systems, yet emerging geochemical evidence suggests a less visible source may be contributing to atmospheric CO2: abandoned coal mines.

A reported 93.9 percent energy utilization efficiency, roughly one-third higher than conventional thermal hydrogen storage methods, is drawing attention to a new gas-solid battery prototype developed by researchers at the Dalian Institute of Chemical Physics under the Chinese Academy of Sciences.
