Next generation AI solutions are quickly making their way from the test labs into utilities. These new tools will make it simpler for mobile service teams and remote employees to complete their work, boosting productivity and improving energy company efficiency.

If officials conclude that the court judgment broadly applies to most of Germany’s off-budget funds, as expected, Finance Minister Christian Lindner will have to retroactively account for at least €30 billion of new debt in a revised program for 2023,

The EU’s 27 members are divided. Central and eastern European countries that have their own nuclear expansion ambitions are supporting France while non-nuclear powers including Belgium, Denmark, Luxembourg, Austria, are backing Germany.

To reduce CO2 emissions, world leaders call for heavy industry to switch from natural gas and coal to hydrogen fuel. When hydrogen burns, the only combustion product is water vapor.

Still, the trade has become a headache for Germany, which has explicitly said it won’t use gas from Russia in the fallout of the war in Ukraine. Berlin is facing sharp criticism over concerns that a government-run company still has ties to Moscow, despite its political rhetoric.

The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) announced $7 billion to launch seven Regional Clean Hydrogen Hubs (H2Hubs) across the nation and accelerate the commercial-scale deployment of low-cost, clean hydrogen—a valuable energy product that can be produced with zero or near-zero carbon emissions and is crucial to meeting the President’s climate and energy security goals.

While a helpful decarbonization tool in theory, hydrogen blending offers numerous concerns and uncertainties.

The conflict between Russia and Ukraine has caused immense war-related devastation, resulting in loss of life, displacement of communities and damage to infrastructure. The ongoing war is exacerbating the economic burden on Ukraine and has far-reaching implications for neighbouring countries and international stability.

The auction will award up to €800 million to renewable hydrogen producers in the European Economic Area (EEA). The support will take the form of a fixed premium in €/kg of renewable hydrogen produced over ten years of operation, therefore targeting the gap between the production costs and the demand’s willingness to pay.

Ministers "put green hydrogen and low carbon hydrogen at center stage and everybody has agreed to it . . . the consensus among all the ministers was that this has formed the basis of the next COP," said the meeting's Chair and India's Power and New and Renewable Energy Minister, RK Singh.
