South Korea’s latest move to expand green hydrogen production arrives at a time when global electrolyzer deployment is surging, growing more than 400% between 2022 and 2024, according to IEA data.

South Korea’s hydrogen ambitions are moving into a new phase, with Hyundai Motor Group preparing a 1-gigawatt green hydrogen production…

Australia’s energy transition hinges on a single figure: up to 95% variable renewable energy (VRE) penetration in the National Energy Market by 2030, according to CSIRO and AEMO modeling. Reaching that threshold, necessary for the country to hit its 43% emissions-reduction target by 2030 and net zero by 2050, requires storage technologies that can deliver reliable, multi-hour power far beyond the capabilities of lithium-ion systems.

Japan’s effort to scale low-carbon fuels has taken a tangible step forward with INPEX Corporation launching the country’s first integrated blue hydrogen and blue ammonia demonstration plant in Niigata Prefecture.

The political and economic stakes surrounding the EU’s Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (CBAM) became sharply visible at COP30, as competing visions for global trade, climate ambition, and industrial competitiveness played out in real time.

China’s grid investment is projected to exceed ¥3 trillion this decade as the country works toward its dual-carbon goals, and the latest agreement between Shanghai Electric and Siemens positions both companies to capture a share of that momentum.

China’s carbon dioxide emissions were unchanged year-on-year in the third quarter of 2025, extending an 18-month period of flat or declining output that began in March 2024.

The global build-out of utility-scale Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS) is rapidly shifting from project-by-project procurement to multi-gigawatt platform agreements, a trend underscored by the recently announced Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) between Trina Storage, a division of Trinasolar, and Pacific Green Energy Group.

China’s push into green hydrogen production is gaining tangible momentum as state-owned oil and gas major Sinopec awards tenders for its 240 MW Uxin Banner Integrated Wind-Solar-Hydrogen Project in Inner Mongolia.

Tesla is reportedly securing a $2.11 billion, three-year battery supply deal with South Korea’s Samsung SDI, marking a critical step in its effort to expand energy storage production beyond China.
