Saudi Arabia’s battery storage market is entering a new phase of industrial development as Chinese energy storage manufacturer ZOE Energy Storage moves to establish a large-scale battery energy storage system manufacturing facility in the kingdom.

Chile’s ambition to become one of the world’s leading green hydrogen exporters has reached a significant regulatory milestone with the environmental approval of the $2.5 billion Volta green hydrogen and green ammonia project in Mejillones.

Georgian officials have now indicated that a parallel green hydrogen pipeline is under consideration, potentially expanding the strategic scope of the Green Energy Corridor and positioning the region as a future exporter of both renewable electricity and low-carbon fuels.

The voluntary carbon market continues to shift away from short-term offset strategies toward durable carbon removal solutions, a trend underscored by a new agreement between carbon dioxide removal (CDR) provider Climeworks and Canadian financial institution TD Bank.

The world is on track to invest $3.4 trillion in energy in 2026, yet the most significant shift is not the scale of spending but where the money is flowing. Electricity infrastructure, renewables, nuclear power, storage, and efficiency are attracting nearly twice as much investment as fossil fuels, reflecting how a second major energy crisis within five years is reshaping global perceptions of energy security.

According to research from the Transport & Environment (T&E), only nine of the EU’s 27 member states offer a tax advantage for electric company cars that is large enough to offset the higher upfront purchase price of an EV.

At 40 gigawatts of offshore wind, the Netherlands’ electricity grid infrastructure will require a cumulative investment of €246 billion between…

In 2025 policy frameworks across Europe, the United Kingdom, and the United States collectively converged on a shared assumption that is now becoming structurally difficult to sustain: that green hydrogen production will scale fast enough to supply synthetic fuels for aviation, maritime transport, and increasingly road vehicles.

South Africa’s battery energy storage market is gaining strategic importance as renewable energy deployment accelerates, but the country’s ambitions to build a domestic manufacturing ecosystem face the same structural challenges that have weakened much of its industrial base: high energy costs, inconsistent demand, and intense competition from low-cost imports.

A hydrogen explosion at a pilot production facility in Gangneung, South Korea, in 2019 killed two people and injured six…
