By 2030, Africa could emerge as a key supplier of green hydrogen to Europe—but only if European policy interventions address the continent’s prohibitive financing conditions.
Global demand for hydrogen reached nearly 100 million tonnes (Mt) in 2024, up around 2 % from the previous year and largely driven by traditional industrial uses such as refining and ammonia production.
OECD electricity generation reached 1,027.6 TWh in July 2025, marking a modest 2.3% year-on-year increase, yet beneath this incremental growth lies a sharply bifurcated energy transition—one where renewable capacity expansion accelerates while structural vulnerabilities in traditional power systems emerge.
The International Maritime Organisation faces a decisive vote this week on whether to impose binding emissions targets on an industry responsible for moving 90% of global trade.
Eurasian Resources Group proceeded with controversial Congolese mineral rights acquisitions worth tens of millions despite internal compliance warnings that transactions…
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.
