Clean Firm Electricity Technologies: What, Why, How
Achieving an affordable, reliable, and abundant clean energy future will require electricity systems to grow while rapidly decarbonizing. Delivering a reliable, least-cost power system will depend not only on scaling renewables, storage, and demand-side solutions, but also on deploying clean electricity technologies with complementary capabilities. Much like a well-balanced investment…

Recalibrating UK hydrogen towards a demand-led, systems-based approach
The 2021 UK Hydrogen Strategy helped stimulate early industry momentum, but ambition has outpaced credible demand and policy coherence. Continuing with the current trajectory risks high public costs, limited emissions reductions, and missed opportunities to build a replicable, exportable model. Hydrogen Allocation Round (HAR) 3 and the forthcoming Hydrogen Strategy…

Getting Hydrogen Right for Poland’s Industrial Decarbonisation
Clean hydrogen will be essential for Poland’s transition to a net-zero economy. As Europe’s third-largest producer and consumer of hydrogen, Poland will require significant volumes of clean hydrogen to keep its industrial base active and well-positioned in a net zero economy. Decarbonising this hydrogen will also be critical for meeting wider European Union (EU) climate targets. Renewable hydrogen will…

The State Industrial Policy Playbook – A Policy Guide for Low-Emission Heavy Industry
Executive Summary The industrial sector is a cornerstone of the U.S. economy, employing over 12 million workers and generating $851 billion in annual payroll, but it is also responsible for approximately 12 percent of harmful air pollutants and 23 percent of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. While decades of deindustrialization have…

EIB Climate Bank Roadmap 2026-30: Strengthening the EU’s climate action toolbox through strategic sustainable finance
Introduction Climate change arguably remains the most urgent challenge of our time. Record-breaking temperatures month after month and increasingly deadly and economically devastating climate disasters demonstrate that decisive and sustained action is still needed to cut planet-warming emissions. While other priorities for public funding and support have emerged, addressing climate…

Geologic Hydrogen in Context
Hydrogen is a critical feedstock that can help reduce greenhouse gas emissions in sectors that are difficult to electrify, such as heavy industry, heavy-duty trucking, maritime shipping, and aviation. As the world moves to decarbonize hydrogen production, a lesser-known hydrogen source is beginning to draw serious attention: geologic hydrogen. Sometimes…

From Ambition to Realisation: A Vision for Germany’s Decarbonisation
Executive Summary Germany has made significant efforts toward achieving net-zero emissions and has markedly progressed in transforming its energy system. This success relies heavily on the expansion of renewable energy and enabling infrastructure. However, as weather-dependent renewable capacity grows, Germany increasingly faces periods of both energy surplus, when conditions are…
