Global clean hydrogen production is now expected to reach only 150 million to 160 million tonnes annually by 2050, according to DNV’s latest hydrogen outlook, marking a sharp downgrade from the company’s earlier expectations and reinforcing growing concerns that the hydrogen economy is advancing far more slowly than governments and developers anticipated just a few years ago.

The economics of clean hydrogen have long been trapped in an uncomfortable paradox. Green hydrogen, produced through electrolysis powered by…

The moment when wind and solar overtook fossil fuels as the dominant source of electricity in the European Union was…

Global mean sea level has risen by 9.4 centimeters since 2000, with satellite data showing an average annual increase of 3.64 millimeters since 1999, according to the Copernicus Climate Change Service. The rate is not static. It has accelerated from 1.3 millimeters per year in the early 20th century to 3.7 millimeters per year in the most recent observational window assessed by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change.

With demand for e-SAF projected to reach 36,000 tonnes by 2030 and surge beyond 160,000 tonnes by 2035, Europe’s aviation sector is entering a regulatory phase where compliance obligations are already outpacing industrial readiness, according to industry assessments cited by Scandinavian Airlines.

Wind and solar generated a combined 30 percent of the European Union’s electricity in 2025, surpassing fossil fuels at 29 percent for the first time and marking a structural shift in the bloc’s power system. This milestone reflects both accelerated renewable deployment and a policy-driven effort to reduce dependence on imported energy following recent supply disruptions.
