In New Zealand, Genesis Energy has reached final investment decision on the second stage of its battery energy storage system programme at Huntly Power Station, advancing a 100 MW / 200 MWh expansion that will bring total installed storage capacity at the site to 200 MW / 400 MWh.
India’s nuclear sector is entering a structurally expanded phase, with the government preparing to float bids for a 220 MWe Bharat Small Modular Reactor (BSMR-200) within the next three to six months, marking one of the first large-scale applications of standardized small modular reactor design in the country’s clean energy transition strategy.
Vietnam’s industrial sector is increasingly positioned at the center of a structural shift toward circular production models, as policymakers and businesses respond to mounting global pressures from resource depletion, climate volatility, and tightening sustainability requirements across supply chains.
RWE has withdrawn its proposed 99.9 MW Butterfly solar plus storage project in Wrexham, Wales, citing limited grid connection availability and broader project viability concerns.
Singapore’s position as the world’s largest bunkering hub is placing it at the center of emerging low-carbon fuel strategies, with ammonia increasingly assessed as a viable option for decarbonizing maritime transport where electrification remains impractical.
Roughly 4,600 households in Chile’s Coquimbo region are now receiving a natural gas blend containing 10% green hydrogen, marking one of the first residential-scale demonstrations of hydrogen injection into distribution networks in South America.
H2SITE has entered into a strategic agreement with Petronor to deploy membrane-based hydrogen separation technology at refinery scale, targeting improved process efficiency and enhanced carbon capture potential.
Photocatalytic conversion of CO2 into fuels, long constrained by low efficiency and unclear mechanisms, is being advanced by researchers at Chiba University through the isolation and quantification of the interaction between photocatalytic and photothermal effects in CO2-to-methane conversion.
Australia’s hydrogen project pipeline continues to prioritize large headline capacities while relying on staged deployment to manage cost and demand uncertainty, a dynamic reflected in Edify Energy’s newly approved green hydrogen development in Queensland.
