• [New] Green hydrogen has the potential to reduce GHG emissions in multiple sectors in Atlantic Canada and as a flexible energy carrier it can allow for deep decarbonization scenarios. EverWind Fuels
• [New] The EU and Australia recognise the important contribution of renewable hydrogen and its derivatives to the clean energy transition, providing opportunities for the decarbonization of hard-to-abate sectors, including steel, aluminium, ammonia, chemicals production and heavy transport. Energy
• [New] In order to further enhance solar energy use beyond 2030 and move progress toward clean energy transitions, the government of Uzbekistan may need to also consider decarbonising other sectors. IEA
• [New] The Panama Second Climate Resilience and Green Growth Development Policy Loan will bolster reforms to decarbonize the transport and energy sectors and support Panama in building the capacity to adapt to climate change and mitigate its effects, benefitting the most vulnerable populations. World Bank
• [New] AMRs have really exciting potential for industrial decarbonization, providing clean heat directly to enterprises that are otherwise stuck burning fossil fuels. New Civil Engineer
• Technology group Wartsila has begun testing its thermal balancing engines using pure hydrogen and expects to have an engine and power plant concept capable of running on 100% hydrogen by 2025, enabling the transition to decarbonised energy systems around the world. Robin Whitlock
• Four lucky US cement producers are going to each receive a portion of US$ 1.2 billion in funding for their decarbonization projects as part of the Biden Administration's Bipartisan Infrastructure Law and the Inflation Reduction Act. World Cement
• The growth in worldwide power generation will largely be driven by decarbonization efforts, including the electrification of the transportation and building sectors. Statista
• Ontario will share technical information, including from research studies, with industry to support the production and use of low-carbon hydrogen in industrial sectors when and where it makes sense as the best pathway to meeting their decarbonization goals. Ontario.ca
• A UK fleet of Xe-100 reactors would play a crucial role in delivering clean electricity and industrial decarbonization and also bring huge opportunities for companies right across the UK. MarketScreener
• Decarbonization of the U.S. economy will require rapid deployment of clean energy technologies. pv magazine USA
• SAF is a real opportunity for the UK to build an industry and create decent jobs while helping to decarbonise air travel. Travel Weekly
• Power systems around the world are undergoing significant change, driven particularly by the increasing availability of low-cost variable renewable energy (VRE), the deployment of distributed energy resources, advances in digitalization and growing opportunities for electrification. IEA
• The global energy transition will require the decarbonization of key sectors such as transport and greater levels of renewable energy generation. WoodMac.Site.Features.Shared.ViewModels.Metadata.Publis
• Global growth in floor area is more than offsetting the increased efficiency and decarbonization efforts, where the long lifespan of buildings risks locking in vulnerable and high emission infrastructure. IEA
• We believe that working together with ExxonMobil, who is actively promoting investment in carbon capture and storage and hydrogen, will contribute to the transition to a global decarbonized society. HydrogenWire
• JERA will continue to contribute to global decarbonization and solving energy problems by building and expanding low carbon hydrogen and ammonia supply chains in cooperation with leading domestic and overseas companies. HydrogenWire
• The existing duty rates on road fuel gases, which are lower than the equivalent rates on diesel, will continue to 2032, giving the haulage industry greater certainty over future tax rates and supports the decarbonization of the UK transport sector. GOV.UK
• The renewable hydrogen produced will initially be used at Shell's Energy & Chemicals Park in Rotterdam to partially decarbonise the production of fossil fuels and support the industrial use of hydrogen in the heavy transportation industry. Energy Global
• As green hydrogen demand grows, platinum offers investors a way of engaging with assets associated with compulsory global decarbonization, with many companies advancing low-emission initiatives for implementation well ahead of the 2050 global deadline. Mining Weekly
