Global renewable power capacity is projected to increase by 4,600 GW between 2025 and 2030—equivalent to adding the combined generation…

Eurasian Resources Group proceeded with controversial Congolese mineral rights acquisitions worth tens of millions despite internal compliance warnings that transactions…

Tata Steel Netherlands faces €685 million in emission allowance purchases between 2024 and 2030, marking a dramatic reversal from the…

The European Union’s adoption of the Low-Carbon Fuels Delegated Act (DA) marks the formal completion of the regulatory framework governing renewable fuels of non-biological origin (RFNBOs) and low-carbon hydrogen.

A team from Chung-Ang University in Seoul and Qingdao University of Science and Technology has unveiled a ruthenium-based nanocatalyst capable of producing hydrogen directly from seawater, addressing one of the critical bottlenecks in sustainable hydrogen generation.

A team of researchers in South Korea has introduced a method that leverages post-consumer polystyrene (EPS, Styrofoam) waste—of which less than one percent is recycled—to produce liquid organic hydrogen carriers (LOHCs). This approach aims to confront two persistent challenges in the clean-energy transition: the low recycling rate of polystyrene and the difficulties of storing, transporting, and using hydrogen at scale.

Global hydrogen demand is projected to exceed 500 million tones a year by mid-century, yet most low-carbon supply options remain expensive or constrained by infrastructure. A recent analysis from the Oxford Institute for Energy Studies spotlights an emerging pathway: stimulated geologic hydrogen production.
