HyTerra Advances Kansas Hydrogen Hunt

With global interest in natural (white) hydrogen gaining momentum, HyTerra is pushing forward with a 12-month exploration campaign in Kansas—one of the few active U.S. hydrogen plays—despite ongoing uncertainty around well testing standards and subsurface behavior.

Korea's Graphene-Coated Zinc-Ion Battery Could Reshape Grid-Scale Energy Storage

As global demand for scalable, fire-safe, and cost-effective energy storage intensifies, lithium-ion technologies—despite their dominance—are facing growing scrutiny over thermal instability and sustainability concerns. A team of Korean researchers may now be offering a viable alternative through a breakthrough in zinc-ion battery architecture, anchored by a novel graphene-coated current collector.

Canada

Canada has taken a critical step forward in its nuclear energy strategy with formal approval for the construction of the nation’s first small modular reactor (SMR), the BWRX-300. The project, located at Ontario Power Generation’s (OPG) Darlington site,will see GE Vernova Hitachi Nuclear Energy (GVH) begin work immediately.
