Plastic, Chemical Industries’ Dependence on Oil to Linger for Much Longer

Plastic and chemical industries will stay hooked on oil long after the transport sector has largely moved on, and their appetite for it is growing rather than shrinking. Electric vehicles are steadily eroding one of oil's biggest markets, but a separate industrial demand is quietly expanding to replace it. According to the International Energy Agency, petrochemicals are on track to surpass transport as the leading source of global oil consumption this year. The global transport industry's dependence on oil is genuinely weakening, with battery-powered cars now accounting for close to a quarter of new vehicle purchases worldwide. This steady rise…

Canada and India Sign Renewable Energy Deal

Canada and India have formalized a sweeping energy partnership that closes a chapter of diplomatic estrangement and anchors a long-term economic relationship. Mark Carney became the first Canadian prime minister to visit India for face-to-face talks in seven years. Agreements signed across Mumbai and New Delhi cover nuclear fuel, renewables, hydrogen, critical minerals and trade. Few bilateral meetings between the two countries have produced this much substance at once. A uranium supply contract sits at the core of the deal. Saskatchewan-based Cameco will deliver just under 22 million pounds of uranium to India over eight years, with shipments beginning in…

Why Renewable Energy isn’t Just a Climate Issue but a Security Matter Too

The strongest argument for transitioning to renewable energy may no longer be combating climate change. Across conflict zones and volatile energy markets, a more urgent case for ditching fossil fuels is being made in real time: national security. Countries that have built their economies around imported fossil fuels are proving to be acutely vulnerable to geopolitical disruptions, especially in oil-producing regions like the Middle East, while those shifting toward distributed renewable generation are quietly gaining a form of resilience that no missile can easily take away. Fossil fuels like natural gas and oil typically move through predictable chokepoints. Pipelines, refineries,…

Stakeholders Want European Ocean Act to Safeguard Offshore Renewables

Offshore wind developers and energy companies are lobbying to put renewables at the heart of Europe's forthcoming Ocean Act, warning that without strong protections written into the legislation, competing maritime interests could slow one of the continent's most critical energy buildouts. With the Act’s publication expected late in 2026, the window to influence the Act's direction is narrowing fast. It will arrive in the fourth quarter of 2026 under the umbrella of an ocean governance initiative the EU launched in 2025. The measure covers the full range of competing activities across European waters, from fishing and cargo shipping to protected…

Trump’s Strikes on Iran Ironically Show Why Renewable Energy is Necessary

Trump's assault on Iran has produced an outcome he almost certainly did not plan for: a powerful, real-world advertisement for ditching fossil fuels. With energy markets destabilized and drivers across the world bracing for another squeeze at the pump, the economic case for clean energy has rarely felt more urgent or better supported. Fuel costs were already roughly 17% higher than at the start of the year, driven partly by months of aggressive regional posturing. Analysts now expect another significant leg up as markets process the consequences of active conflict involving a major oil-producing nation. For American consumers, it is…

4 Factors Hamstringing Europe’s Renewable Energy Sector

Europe sits on a major renewable energy opportunity that keeps slipping through its fingers. Costs have fallen sharply, the technology works, and the strategic case for cutting fossil fuel dependence has never been more obvious. Four stubborn obstacles, however, are standing between the continent and the clean energy future its own economics demand. Entrenched industrial resistance is the first. Key manufacturing sectors, including automotive, chemicals, and steel, have spent years postponing the shift to modern production methods, even as workable alternatives have been commercially available. The long-running political battle over phasing out combustion engine vehicles is the most visible symptom.…
