The world’s largest two economies, the United States and China, are both majorly cooling off on investments in clean energy manufacturing, but for very different reasons. In China, the decline in investing from peak levels in 2023 reflects a market correction after years of oversupply and a slowdown in economic growth. In the United States, the trend comes as a reflection of shifting policy priorities and the private sector’s reaction to political uncertainty in the Trump era. The result is a slowdown in clean energy manufacturing investing…

For years, carbon capture and storage (CCS) has existed in a strange political limbo. Governments praise it in climate strategies. Heavy industry quietly depends on it in their net-zero roadmaps. Environmental groups alternately dismiss it as a fossil fuel lifeline or reluctantly admit it may be necessary after all. Yet despite the endless conferences, white papers, and billion-euro announcements, very few projects ever make it past the PowerPoint stage. That is why Denmark’s latest CCS tender matters far beyond Scandinavia. Aalborg Portland…

Data centers, electric vehicles (EVs), and green industrial clusters are expected to lead to about 100 terawatt-hours (TWh) of incremental power demand in Southeast Asia by 2030, but slower grid infrastructure development could slow the rollout, a report by Bain & Company and Standard Chartered showed on Monday. The incremental demand from data centers/AI, green industrial parks and EV infrastructure is enormous, with the expected growth tripled compared to about 30 TWh in additional demand in the five years to 2025. But Southeast Asia will…

El presidente estadounidense, Donald Trump, criticó este lunes duramente a la prensa de su país y al Partido Demócrata asegurando que en una "hipotética rendición total de Irán" lo titularán como "una victoria magistral y brillante" de Teherán sobre Washington. E...

Please excuse the infelicitous wording, but that is what this is all about. Not missteps or misjudgments but genuine, massive screw-ups. Policy makers in the United States worked out that problem over time, dealing with nuclear cost overruns and aborted projects. Three utilities went bankrupt (only one being investor-owned) when the financial burdens of nuclear projects far exceeded the resources of the utility. In most cases, regulatory agencies forced utility shareholders to bear some of the losses or imprudently incurred costs, customers paid…

The loss of fertilizer shipments coming from the Persian Gulf as a result of the Iran war got me thinking about the chemist Justus von Liebig, a prominent 19th-century proponent of the mineral theory of plant nutrition. Liebig is the popularizer of what is now known as Liebig's Law of the Minimum. The law states that the least available essential nutrient limits the growth of plants. This means once a grower runs out of one essential nutrient, adding extra of others will not make up for the lack of the one that is limited. Liebig's eponymous law…

As U.S. President Donald Trump landed in Beijing last Wednesday for a two-day summit with his Chinese counterpart Xi Jinping, his aides would have been acutely aware that he had faced extensive criticism in the past for his cosy dealings with the Chinese leader before, especially during his first presidential term. The fact that the summit had been postponed from late March, following the escalation of the war in Iran, will have naturally raised at least one potential topic of conversation, if not two. China remains the key financier -- through…

European airlines are becoming increasingly confident the continent would avoid a jet fuel shortage this summer as refiners maximize jet fuel output and buyers diversify imports to offset supply losses from the Middle East with increased shipments from the U.S. and Nigeria. A month into the Iran war and the Strait of Hormuz crisis, airlines, officials, and analysts started warning that Europe had mere weeks of jet fuel supply and an inevitable crunch would arrive in the middle of May, or by the end of May at the latest. Fatih Birol, executive director…

For years, global LNG markets operated under a fairly comfortable assumption. Qatar would remain a stable supplier, the Middle East would continue functioning as the center of global LNG trade, and buyers in Europe and Asia could rely on long-term contracts to keep gas flowing. That assumption is now under pressure. Damage to energy infrastructure in the Middle East, rising geopolitical instability, and growing concerns about shipping security have injected a new layer of risk into global LNG markets. At the same time, demand is accelerating from…

An Australian trade union is threatening to start a strike at an LNG export facility from May 27, in a two-week-long industrial action that could further tighten the global LNG supply, which is already stretched thin amid the Iran war and the closed Strait of Hormuz. The Offshore Alliance union, the Australian Workers Union, and Maritime Union of Australia, on Monday notified Japanese company Inpex there could be 243 stoppages and work bans at Inpex’s Ichthys LNG facilities between May 27 and June 10, after the unions and the company failed…
