“Space nuclear propulsion technology shows great potential to facilitate the human exploration of Mars. However, significant acceleration in the pace of technology maturation is required if NASA and its partners are to complete this mission within the stated timeline.”

Decarbonising the power sector will not be sufficient to achieving net-zero emissions. We also need to decarbonise the non-power sectors - transport, buildings and industry - which represent 60% of emissions from the energy sector today.

Iran, which sits on the world’s fourth-largest oil reserves, relies heavily on oil revenue, but sanctions have prevented it from pumping at anywhere near capacity since 2018.

One of the key mitigation measures is development of adequate energy storage capacity in India.

This dramatic growth in renewable energy capacity reinforces the fact that India is witnessing an unprecedented energy transition to low-carbon development,

Budget 2021-22 is a mixed bag in terms of support for India’s transition to a sustainable, low carbon economy.

The next ten years will be an era of fundamental change for the energy sector as more companies leverage digitization with the potential to increase long-term earnings by 25% or more.

Based on assessments of energy venture capital deal flow, market analyses, and conversations with industry insiders, below are four indisputable utility sector trends -- regardless of whether the 2020 craziness repeats itself -- and the emerging, venture-backed technologies on the market to support the energy transition in 2021.

The decision to adopt nuclear power in South Africa was made as a result of sound strategic planning. It has turned out to have been a very good decision.

Combined, they accounted for or 22,451 megawatts (MW) or more than three-quarters (78.09%) of the 28,751 MW of new utility-scale capacity reported to have been added last year. Wind (13,626 MW) and solar (8,543 MW) each contributed more new generating capacity than did natural gas (6,259 MW).

The National Climate Task Force, which met for the first time yesterday, was established in an executive order on tackling the climate crisis signed by President Joe Biden during his first week in office.

To meet the global cumulative demand over the next 30 years, undeveloped and undiscovered resources totaling 313 billion barrels of oil need to be added to currently producing assets.

China grid companies will steadily increase the amount of power purchased from clean generation sources from 28.2% in 2020 to 40% by 2030,

U.S. increases in net crude oil imports in 2021 and 2022 because domestic crude oil production and inventory draws alone will not meet the needs of U.S. refineries.

An expected gradual reduction in oil production of around 1-2% each year, including divestments and natural decline.
