MIT researchers have achieved a tenfold increase in the energy storage capacity of electron-conducting carbon concrete (ec³), a material capable of turning buildings, bridges, and pavements into functional energy storage units.
Global renewable energy capacity is projected to expand by 4,600 GW by 2030, roughly equivalent to the combined installed capacity of China, the European Union, and Japan, according to the IEA’s Renewables 2025 report.
Portugal’s EDP Renewables is moving to strengthen its foothold in Australia’s energy transition, with 1.7 gigawatts (GW) of new solar and battery capacity approved under the federal Capacity Investment Scheme (CIS) — a key instrument in the country’s effort to stabilize renewable generation while ensuring long-term investor confidence.
Saudi Arabia’s energy diversification strategy gained another regional dimension this week as the Saudi Arabian Refineries Company (SARCO) signed a non-binding Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with the UAE-based GO Energy Company to jointly assess the development of a green hydrogen and ammonia project in the Kingdom.
Europe is taking a decisive step toward tackling one of its most persistent emissions sources: industrial process heat. On October 10, 2025, the European Commission released the final Terms and Conditions (T&Cs) for the IF25 Heat Auction, its first continent-wide auction aimed at decarbonizing industrial heat generation.
The United Kingdom’s ambition to lead in offshore hydrogen production is taking tangible form as the Milford Haven: Hydrogen Kingdom (MH:HK) project advances toward deployment in the Celtic Sea.
GoldenPeaks Capital (GPC) and Huawei Polska have formalized a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) to deploy 500 MWh of grid-forming battery energy storage systems (BESS) across Europe, signaling a strategic push to bolster grid stability amid rising renewable energy integration.
Uniper has formally submitted a planning application to North Lincolnshire Council (NLC) for its proposed Humber H2ub® (Green) hydrogen production facility, marking a significant step in the company’s efforts to decarbonize industrial operations in the Humber region.
In addressing the increasing need for efficient energy storage solutions, a recent study introduced an offline lithium-ion battery repair system that employs a dynamic strategy and hybrid topology, aiming to tackle common issues such as battery inconsistency, high costs, and single control methods in lithium battery packs.
