The world’s leading banks spent just 89 cents on low-carbon energy companies and projects such as wind, solar and grids for every dollar they allocated to fossil fuels.

While global spending is likely to hit $570 billion this year — enough to keep production at current levels if sustained — the amount would be down slightly from 2024,

These new measures follow the 18th sanctions package, unveiled in July 2025, which lowered the oil price cap on Russian crude to US$47.6/bbl,

The contract, worth CNY4.2bn ($594m), was awarded to a joint group of companies, China Energy Engineering Jiangsu Electric Power Construction No 3 Company and China National Nuclear Huachen Construction Engineering Company. They will build the nuclear islands, their auxiliary systems and part of the equipment for the balance of the station.

Russia sold 35 billion bcm of gas to the European Union in 2024, which positioned Russia as Europe’s largest gas supplier. Gas has not been subjected to EU sanctions, although the EU has stated it wishes to cut off all Russian gas supplies by 2027.

"In the field of nuclear energy, 10 new reactors are progressing rapidly. By 2047, when the nation will complete 100 years of independence - the year we have set as the target for achieving the goal of a 'Viksit Bharat' - we are moving forward with the resolve to increase our nuclear energy capacity more than tenfold."

Совместная работа направлена на дальнейшее технологическое и структурное развитие отечественного энергетического сектора, как основы новой передовой модели экономики Российской Федерации, формирующейся в настоящее время.
