Ucore Rare Metals Inc. (TSX.V: UCU) (OTCQX: UURAF) Accelerates U.S. Rare Earth Independence amid Energy Concerns

This article has been disseminated on behalf of  Ucore Rare Metals Inc. (TSX.V: UCU) (OTCQX: UURAF) and may include paid advertising. Minerals vital to energy and advanced manufacturing have become an energy security issue in their own right, notes “Time” report. The IEA has launched a Critical Minerals Security Program to promote joint action in the face of disruptions. Ucore’s commercial objective is to deliver the missing link in North America’s rare earth chain. Alarm bells are ringing over a new kind of energy crisis — and it’s not oil or gas. A recent “Time” article warns that governments must act…

Countries Unexpectedly Succeeding in Switching to Renewables

Renewable power overtook coal as the world's leading electricity source during 2025's opening months, marking a watershed moment in the global energy transition. As generating electricity produces the largest portion of worldwide emissions, decarbonizing power systems will provide the foundation for cleaning transportation and other high-pollution industries. Global green energy capacity is projected to double within half a decade and add 4,600 gigawatts, which is roughly equal to the combined generating infrastructure of Japan, the European Union, and China. Some of the most dramatic shifts are happening in unexpected places. Pakistan's solar revolution stands out as the most startling example,…

EV Adoption is Shrinking China’s Oil Usage

Electric vehicle adoption is cutting China's oil consumption for the first time in twenty years. The country's fuel demand dropped in 2024, reversing decades of growth that saw oil usage more than double since 2004. China became the world's biggest crude buyer during that expansion and accounted for over half the global increase in oil demand. Road fuel consumption started leveling off after 2019 and finally turned negative last year as plug-in electric cars gained serious traction across the country. EVs now account for over a quarter of new energy vehicle (NEV) sales in China and represent roughly one in…

Renewable Energy Surpluses are Soon Becoming History

The age of surplus renewable power getting wasted is ending. Explosive electricity demand growth means throwing away energy will shift from common practice to unaffordable luxury within years. Projections show that data centers will be consuming 165% more power before this decade closes, representing half of America's anticipated 100-gigawatt demand increase by then. Broader electrification policies coupled with progressively complex energy grid dynamics will compound this surge in demand and trigger a fundamental change in how the nation manages its power supply. Storage systems capable of holding power for extended periods will be critical to maintaining stable grids at manageable…

Energy Storage Surges in the US Despite Federal Policy Headwinds

Battery storage installations in the U.S. are projected to surge to 204 gigawatts by 2035, a dramatic jump from the 31 gigawatts deployed through 2024. Equal to more than 800 gigawatt-hours of capacity, the forecast marks a sharp break from the challenges facing America's green energy segment. Projections from BloombergNEF show battery storage will outperform prior expectations even after the "One Big Beautiful Bill" eliminated numerous tax credits in July. While energy storage forecasts now run 25% over than projections issued immediately after OBBB passage and 6% above pre-OBBB estimates, wind and solar projections have cratered, with wind deployment expectations…
