The 35-nation Iter project has a groundbreaking aim to create clean and limitless energy but it is turning into the ‘most delayed and cost-inflated science project in history’ It was a project that promised the sun. Researchers would use the world’s most advanced technology to design a machine that could generate atomic fusion, the process that drives the stars – and so create a source of cheap, non-polluting power.

Environmental groups – among many others – loathe fracking, but could it offer zero-carbon power? When most people think of fracking, the last thing that comes to mind is decarbonization and clean energy, but this technology pioneered by the oil and gas industry may have the potential for much greener applications. The idea is to use hydraulic fracturing techniques in a new way Southern California Edison, one of the largest electricity companies in the United States, has announced

With the first wave of the energy transition, renewable energy sources (such as solar and wind) have begun replacing coal power generation. However, some sectors are lagging behind and struggling to decarbonize more than others, including large-scale transportation like commercial aviation, shipping, and rail transit. Electrofuels (aka eFuels) are the next generation of solutions to help the hardest-to-abate sectors pivot from their reliance on fossil fuels.
