Solar is Establishing its Dominance Among Energy Sources

Solar power has surged from supplying 1% of global electricity in 2015 to roughly 10% today, outpacing nuclear generation and growing faster than any other energy source this century. Worldwide capacity reached approximately 2,900 gigawatts in 2025, and if current expansion rates continue, installations could hit 9,000 gigawatts by 2030, meeting over 20% of planetary energy demand. What started as expensive technology limited to space missions now generates the cheapest electricity across much of the world. China dominates both production and deployment, manufacturing over 80% of all solar panels while installing 315 gigawatts of new capacity in 2025 alone. Total…

Iran War Highlights How Different Countries are Approaching Renewables

The war in Iran is exposing something the global energy conversation has consistently glossed over. Different countries are approaching the shift away from fossil fuels from entirely different positions, at entirely different speeds, and with entirely different consequences when disruption hits. The crisis has made those differences impossible to ignore. Economic damage from the disruption has reached well beyond the conflict zone. One of the world's busiest maritime oil corridors ground to a near halt, sending prices briefly past $119 per barrel. Even though governments coordinated a release of strategic petroleum stocks at a scale without historical precedent, costs still…

Experts Highlight the Emissions Increases Arising from the Iran Conflict

The first two weeks of fighting in Iran generated over 5 million tons of carbon dioxide, exceeding Iceland's entire annual emissions, as experts race to quantify how modern warfare accelerates climate change. Calculating exact figures remains difficult, but initial assessments show military fuel consumption dwarfs other sources, with commercial aviation disruptions and long-term reconstruction adding climate damage that will persist for years. A single F-35 fighter jet burns roughly 5,600 to 6,500 liters of kerosene during a combat sortie lasting 90 minutes to two hours, releasing 14 to 17 tons of carbon dioxide equivalent to a conventional passenger car's lifetime…

EU Starts Consultative Process to Shape Renewables Policy After 2030

Brussels has begun gathering input on how to structure European renewable energy policy for the coming decade, opening a month-long evidence collection window and three-month public feedback period. European Commission officials aim to finalize legislative proposals before 2026 ends, establishing rules for expanding clean power while safeguarding economic competitiveness, supply security, and climate progress past 2030. Stakeholder responses will inform comprehensive assessments that shape energy regulations governing the continent through the next decade and beyond. Clean sources now provide roughly one-quarter of European energy consumption, twice the proportion from a dozen years earlier. Commission analysis indicates achieving climate commitments requires…

American Fusion Inc. (AMFN) Aligns Corporate Identity with Fusion Energy Strategy

American Fusion Inc. has officially changed its corporate name and ticker symbol from Renewal Fuels (OTC: RNWF) to AMFN. The move follows the company’s earlier merger with Kepler Fusion Technologies and reflects its focus on the company’s unique fusion energy technology development. Kepler’s Texatron(TM) platform is designed as a modular system for industrial and commercial energy deployment, pursuing a strategy that initially targets “behind-the-meter” power generation at customer facilities. A 5-megawatt demonstration system and a 100-megawatt commercial-scale design are currently under development. The rebranding is intended to align the company’s public market presence with its long-term technology and infrastructure strategy.…

Energy Fallout as Conflict Engulfs the Middle East Adds Urgency to Renewables Shift

With the Iran war continuing to choke oil flows through the Strait of Hormuz, countries across the globe have major incentive to accelerate their clean energy transitions as vulnerabilities in fossil fuel supply chains become impossible to ignore. The conflict has blocked close to 20% of worldwide petroleum and liquefied natural gas movements, exposing how dependent economies remain on fragile shipping routes. This shock is driving renewed calls to speed up renewable deployments that would insulate countries from such disruptions through domestic solar and wind resources. Unlike earlier petroleum crises, clean power can now compete economically. International Renewable Energy Agency…

Decarbonization Could Reduce the Number of Wars Globally

As the world continues to grapple with the energy-related repercussions of the ongoing Iran war, climate change experts say decarbonization could be the key to reducing the number of wars across the world in the future. In a recent interview with ABC News, several climate and energy experts said that eliminating fossil fuels from the energy mix could reduce armed conflicts by making oil and other fossil fuels less tied to economic performance. Oil has driven a substantial portion of interstate wars since the 1970s and long before, with studies linking the resource to numerous military confrontations. Allied nations cut…

Gulf Oil Money is Being Channeled into African Renewable Energy

Capital from the Gulf is streaming into Africa’s fledgling clean energy industry at an accelerated pace as the war between the U.S., Israel, and Iran heats up. The conflict has exposed how vulnerable global commodity flows remain to disruption along critical maritime routes. That vulnerability is now pushing long-term investors toward energy assets in regions where supply does not hinge on any single corridor staying open. A Clean Air Task Force report released last month put Gulf investment in African renewables at just over $101 billion by the close of 2024. The UAE, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Kuwait and Bahrain were…

How Countries Can Tap Renewables to Clip Impact of Rising Oil Prices

With no seeming end to the war between the U.S., Israel, and Iran, countries should consider tapping into renewables to offset increased energy costs caused by the ongoing conflict. Predictably, the Iran war has caused gas and oil prices to jump, and with the U.S. actively turning away from renewables under the Trump administration, experts believe the country is depriving itself of energy independence. The need for energy independence has become plain to see as energy markets struggle to recover from the shocks caused by the start of missile strikes on Iran by Israel and the U.S. roughly 10 days…
