Challenges Hamstringing the Energy Transition in Europe

Europe’s effort to shift away from fossil fuels is facing a problem that would once have seemed unlikely: electricity is sometimes becoming so plentiful that producers have to pay to sell it. During the first three months of 2026, electricity traded below zero for 1,223 hours across European Union day-ahead markets, according to the International Energy Agency. The figures point to a weakness on the demand side rather than an end to Europe’s need for new clean power. Only about 24% of energy use across the European economy was electrified in 2024, compared with 34% in China. Electricity therefore still…

Renewables Provided 54% of Electricity within the EU in Q2 This Year

Just over half the European Union's power came from renewable sources in the second quarter of 2026, with the figure landing at 54.1%, according to new data from Eurostat. That's a marginal decline from the 54.3% figure posted a year earlier, though the overall renewable share has remained fairly stable year-over-year. Solar alone made up 41.6% of that renewable total, a notable climb from the 37.0% it represented twelve months prior. That growth made it the single largest contributor to the EU's clean power supply and aligns with renewable energy data from other major markets. Solar is still the king…

Greenpeace Report Finds Tech Firms Switching to Renewables as Data Centers Proliferate

New research from Greenpeace East Asia has revealed that Chinese data center and cloud computing companies kept growing their reliance on clean power all through 2025, even with AI infrastructure driving demand sharply upward. Eight of the 25 firms surveyed pushed their clean electricity share past 30% by August 2026, a sharp jump from the group's 2024 findings, when just a single company had crossed that threshold. Tencent's clean-power share stood at 48.5%, and GDS pulled even further ahead at 60%. Momentum on formal commitments has grown too, though unevenly. More than half the surveyed group, fourteen companies in total,…

Smart Grids Could Unlock $12.1B in Savings for Europe

Better coordination of electric vehicle charging alone could spare Europe roughly $12.1 billion in grid spending through the end of the decade, according to new modeling from Siemens commissioned by EIT Urban Mobility, ChargeUp Europe, and ACEA. Left unmanaged, EV growth would otherwise push distribution grid costs to nearly $28.3 billion by 2030, but coordinated charging could trim that figure down to roughly $16.2 billion instead. The mechanism behind those savings is what the study calls EV load management: steering when and how fast vehicles pull power from the grid, moment to moment, so demand spreads out instead of spiking…

Portuguese Scientists Explore Using Rocks to Store Clean Energy

Portuguese researchers are working on a renewable energy storage solution that uses rock as a storage medium for excess green energy. Their research builds on efforts by German scientists who experimented with using salt caverns to store energy in the 1970s. As fantastical as the idea may sound, the concept of storing energy underground is based on real science and could go a long way towards addressing the intermittency issues that hamper green energy adoption. Fossil fuel-fired power plants still have one major advantage over renewable energy plants; their primary resource isn’t reliant on time and weather conditions. Sure, fossil…

Investment in Clean Hydrogen Exceeds $130B

Data from the Hydrogen Council’s 2026 report has revealed that clean hydrogen investment exceeded $130 billion this year, spread across more than 570 projects worldwide. Together, those projects add up to nearly 7 million tons of committed annual production capacity, per the report co-authored with consulting firm McKinsey. What stands out most in the findings is how much of that money has moved past the planning stage. Roughly nine out of every ten committed projects have either broken ground or are already up and running. The amount of hydrogen capacity genuinely producing output has nearly doubled in the past year,…

Wars Are Accelerating the Renewable Energy Transition

Major armed conflicts in Europe and the Middle East are accelerating the world’s transition to renewable energy by exposing existential vulnerabilities in the global energy ecosystem. In Europe, countries spent years becoming reliant on cheap natural gas imports from Russia before the Kremlin pulled the rug out from under them after the invasion of Ukraine and left them searching desperately for alternatives. Israel and the United States’ attack on Iran, and the subsequent closure of the Hormuz Strait was the final nail in the coffin as constrained oil supplies caused prices to surge. These factors are shining a light on…

Frontieras North America Inc. Links America’s Coal Reserves to Country’s Fertilizer Future

Energy is the foundation of everything the global economy runs on, from manufacturing to transportation to food production. The United States has made real progress reducing its reliance on imported ammonia, with net import reliance falling to about 5% in 2025. Frontieras North America is supporting that trend toward diversification with a technology it calls Solid Carbon Fractionation, branded FASForm(TM). American farmers depend on nitrogen fertilizer, and nitrogen fertilizer depends on energy. That bridge is why fertilizer security at its core is actually an energy story … and problem. It is also why Frontieras North America is positioning its coal-based…

Frontieras North America Inc. Puts Mason County at Center of Coal Workforce Revival

Energy security depends on more than pipelines, plants and reserves. It depends on experienced people who know how to run and manage them. Frontieras’s Mason County project is expected to create approximately 200 full-time jobs, with wages averaging three times the average income for the area, along with roughly 2,000 construction jobs during the build phase. The plant itself will process 7,500 tons of coal per day using FASForm(TM), the company's Solid Carbon Fractionation process, producing diesel, naphtha, aviation fuel, hydrogen, methane and FASCarbon(TM), a clean-coal product. A domestic energy project only strengthens the country if it first strengthens the…

Renewable Energy, Storage Help Fix Longstanding US Grid Challenge

America's power grid has spent years buckling under extreme summer heat and climbing demand, forcing operators across the country to lean on rolling blackouts and conservation warnings just to get through peak season. Renewable energy and battery storage now have the potential to close that gap in ways that have already been demonstrated in Texas. Texas experienced demand exceeding 91 gigawatts for the first time in its history this July without ERCOT, the state's grid operator, ever having to issue a single Conservation Appeal asking residents to cut back power use, the state illustrates what is possible if renewable energy…
