Interviews with CEOs, engineers and investors building the energy transition, from the Energy Talks series by EnergyNews.biz.
The hydrogen industry is no stranger to bold claims, but few back them with daily proof. In a recent conversation,…
Electricity accounts for just 20% of global energy consumption, yet dominates decarbonization debates. The remaining 80%—industrial heat, heavy transport, and…
Green hydrogen has long been promised as a clean energy solution, but turning that promise into reality requires more than just ambition—it demands practical engineering. In a recent discussion with Yujin Lee of Lightbridge Korea, we explored how modular electrolyzers are quietly solving some of hydrogen’s biggest challenges.
Aviation’s climate impact, often underestimated at 2–3% of global CO₂ emissions, surges to 10% or higher when non-CO₂ effects like…
A staggering volume of disingenuous narratives, strategically amplified within increasingly fragmented information ecosystems, significantly impedes meaningful climate action. This was…
The European Union’s Hydrogen Bank has already allocated €2 billion to 61 pioneering projects in its first auction, marking a…
In the Pyrenees, a single tectonic system may generate enough hydrogen annually to power a city of 500,000—a figure extrapolated…
The aviation industry accounts for 2.5% of global CO2 emissions. As the world grapples with the urgent need to decarbonize, the sector faces mounting pressure to innovate.
The global push toward Net Zero emissions is reshaping industries, economies, and societies, with electrification, renewable energy, and battery technology at the forefront of this transformation. However, the transition faces significant challenges, particularly in scaling technologies and securing the raw materials needed for battery production.
At the heart of the tension lies the bloc’s approach to technology neutrality. While the U.S. Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) allocates tax credits across multiple hydrogen production pathways—including $3/kg for low-carbon methods like methane pyrolysis—EU policies remain disproportionately focused on electrolysis-derived “green” hydrogen. This narrow focus risks sidelining alternative methods, such as methane splitting with solid carbon capture, which could reduce emissions by 92% compared to conventional steam methane reforming (SMR), according to 2023 lifecycle analyses by the International Energy Agency (IEA).
