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…

Study Says the UK Has Saved $133B by Leveraging Wind Energy

Recent research examining the economic impact of renewable energy expansion has revealed that wind power delivered $195 billion in total financial benefits to the United Kingdom between 2010 and 2023. Even after accounting for $57 billion in government support for wind generation during that period, the analysis found that consumers saved $133 billion through reduced electricity costs and lower natural gas prices. Britain's energy landscape has undergone dramatic transformation over the past decade and a half. While fossil fuels generated more than 75% of electricity in 2010, the UK no longer used coal-fired energy and wind supplies 30% of power…

Balcony-Solar Could Be a Game-Changer in Clean Energy

With over 3,000 residents in the minimalist housing complex Möckernkiez embracing balcony solar panels, Germany has now installed more than one million balcony solar systems. The compact panels, which attach to balconies and building facades, allow renters and apartment dwellers to produce electricity without rooftop access or the property ownership requirements that typically restrict solar adoption. Möckernkiez, a cooperative housing complex in central Berlin, exemplifies the trend. The car-free development installed 70 balcony panels two years ago after residents proposed the initiative to supplement existing biogas and rooftop solar infrastructure that was serving 3,000 occupants across 471 apartments. Technical director…

Retired Officers Say Defense Budgets Should Fund Renewable Energy Projects

A coalition of retired senior military officers has called for renewable energy investments to be classified as defense expenditures, arguing that climate-related threats constitute legitimate national security concerns. Former European commanders contend that allocating resources toward low-carbon power generation would strengthen resilience against potential adversaries while reducing dependence on hostile nations controlling fossil fuel supplies. NATO members have committed to spending 3.5% of GDP on armed forces and core military capabilities, with an additional 1.5% designated for critical infrastructure including civil preparedness. The retired officers argue that renewable energy projects should qualify under the 1.5% infrastructure allocation. Their letter to…

Megabatteries are Driving the Renewable Energy Transition

Mega batteries are playing a critical role in the global transition from fossil fuels to renewable alternatives. While green energy sources are undoubtedly cleaner than fossil fuels such as oil and natural gas, they are plagued by one major issue that could impact their rollout: intermittency. Unlike fossil fuels, which can generate energy at any time at very high efficiency, renewables are beholden to external factors such as weather and time, which determine the amount of clean energy they can generate. For instance, solar energy projects can only generate electricity during the day and reach peak production during a small…

Spain’s Data Centers Absorb Renewables to Workaround Grid Saturation

Data centers in Spain are absorbing excess green energy capacity due to grid saturation that has left the country's electrical nodes unable to admit new renewable energy demand. It is a common problem among economies that have made major investments in green energy production without making sufficient upgrades to their electrical grids. As solar, wind, and other renewable energy sources generate more clean energy than their grids can reasonably admit, connection bottlenecks form and green energy projects have to wait months or even years before they can sell their clean energy. Spain is avoiding this eventuality by using data centers…

23 States Sue to Challenge Trump’s Halt to Clean Energy Projects

Twenty-three states have filed lawsuits challenging the Trump administration's decision to terminate a $7 billion federal solar program designed to expand clean energy access for low-income households nationwide. California Attorney General Rob Bonta announced the twin lawsuits on Thursday, targeting Environmental Protection Agency Administrator Lee Zeldin for cancelling Solar for All funding grants to nearly two dozen states in August. The program aimed to help disadvantaged communities install residential solar panels and battery storage systems, reducing electricity costs while advancing renewable energy adoption. Arizona Attorney General Kris Mayes estimates the cancellation will impact 900,000 low-income families across the country. Arizona…

Apple Ramps Up its Clean Energy Projects in Europe

American tech giant Apple is funding a fresh wave of large-scale solar and wind projects across Europe, from Spain and Greece to Poland, Romania and Latvia. Cumulatively, these developments are expected to add roughly 650 megawatts of new zero-carbon capacity and unlock more than $600 million in project finance. The initiatives are designed to supply additional clean electricity to regional grids, reducing the carbon footprint associated with charging and operating consumer devices across the European continent. Product use accounted for about 29 percent of Apple’s 2024 greenhouse gas footprint, which explains why customer electricity is a core emissions stream for…
