Group Says Trump Policies Have Triggered Cancellations Worth $8Bn in Clean Energy Investments

A renewable energy business group has revealed that the Trump administration's policies have led to the cancellation of approximately $8 billions’ worth of green energy investments. President Donald Trump, who expressed strong anti-renewable energy sentiments in the lead-up to the November 2024 presidential election, has since moved to dismantle many clean energy policies implemented under the previous administration. In addition to rolling back domestic climate policies, Trump has imposed a series of increasingly punitive import tariffs on China, currently the world’s largest producer of green energy infrastructure. These trade barriers have caused major disruptions across clean energy supply chains and…

US Renewable Energy Overtakes Fossil Fuels in March

The United States reached a major clean energy milestone in March after renewable energy sources supplied more electricity to the national grid than fossil fuels. According to new data from the energy think tank Ember, clean energy accounted for just over half of America’s electricity mix, surpassing fossil fuels for the first time in history. The shift highlights the momentum of renewable energy adoption, even amid efforts by the current administration to scale back climate initiatives. President Donald Trump and his administration have consistently opposed climate action and are working to reverse several clean energy policies implemented by the previous…

The Global South Doubles the Global North’s Renewable Energy Growth Rate

A new RMI report has found that countries in the Global South are experiencing a surge in clean energy investment. In the past, many renewable energy experts cautioned against concentrating most of the world’s clean energy funding in developed nations of the Global North. However, new research now shows that the Global South's renewable energy growth rate is twice the rate seen in the Global North. The Global South includes Southeast Asia, South Asia, Africa, and Latin America. RMI’s report found that green energy investments in the Global South were seven times larger than fossil fuel investments, compared to a…

Could Global Climate Action Be Derailed by Trump’s Tariffs?

The Trump administration’s series of escalating trade tariffs have the potential to derail global efforts to combat climate change. With President Donald Trump's tariffs injecting significant volatility into the global economy, some experts fear the tariffs could lead to a major trade war that may hinder the world’s climate goals. President Trump has been an outspoken critic of climate action and frequently condemned the Biden administration for investing billions into expanding America's green energy capacity and installing critical renewable energy infrastructure. The GOP president was quick to reverse many of the previous administration's climate-related policies and has rescinded billions of…

Report Says Renewables Surged Globally, Though Fossil Fuels Still Rule

A recently published report on the global energy industry has revealed that fossil fuels remain the dominant sources of energy worldwide despite a significant surge in renewable energy production. Thanks to major technological advancements coupled with targeted investments, countries are producing more renewable energy than ever. Green energy sources now account for slightly over 40% of electricity worldwide, and their capacity will continue to grow as countries add more renewable energy infrastructure. However, these gains still haven't been substantial enough to dethrone fossil fuels like coal as the largest sources of electricity, the report by global energy think tank Ember…

Chemical-Assisted Water Hydrolysis Could Supercharge Energy Transition

With dozens of countries across the globe working to transition from fossil fuels to cleaner alternatives, chemical-assisted water hydrolysis may allow them to tap into a vastly underrated source of green energy: hydrogen. Green hydrogen has emerged as a promising alternative to oil, coal, and other fossil fuels due to its high energy density and ability to be stored and transported easily. Unlike fossil fuels, which emit harmful greenhouse gases when combusted, burning hydrogen produces only water vapor. This means technologies that rely on hydrogen as an energy source generate zero emissions, making it an attractive option for reducing carbon…

Trump Tariffs Could Hamstring the Transition to Clean Energy

The Trump administration has launched a series of controversial trade tariffs that have shaken global markets to the core and sparked concerns about a possible recession. Among all the industries that stand to be affected by the recent tariffs, clean energy may suffer the most significant and longest-lasting effects. President Donald Trump, known for his opposition to renewable energy, has repeatedly criticized the Biden administration’s investments in electric vehicles, clean power, and green infrastructure. He has referred to renewable energy as a “scam” and pledged to rescind any unspent funds designated for clean energy projects under the previous administration. Several…
