Coordinated government action on CCS funding and deployment could slash industrial decarbonisation costs in CEE
A new policy brief from Clean Air Task Force (CATF) provides a roadmap for governments in Central and Eastern Europe (CEE) to accelerate regional carbon capture and storage (CCS) deployment to decarbonise heavy industry, maintain competitiveness, and secure long-term economic resilience. It provides a clear, actionable path for national governments to coordinate CCS deployment, reduce costs, and access available EU…

SMR Alliance positions Europe for next phase of nuclear energy deployment
The European Industrial Alliance on Small Modular Reactors (SMRs) sent a clear signal this week: nuclear energy will be central to Europe’s clean energy transition and to the competitiveness of its industries. In his closing remarks at the group’s second General Assembly, EU Commissioner Dan Jørgensen declared that SMRs are essential for climate objectives and that “there is no scenario where we can stay…

Beneath the surface: What you need to know about geologic hydrogen
Hydrogen has long played a vital role in the industrial landscape, from fertilizer production to petroleum refining. It will remain essential in a decarbonizing economy, where it is uniquely positioned to replace today’s carbon-intensive hydrogen use in “no-regrets” sectors such as hard-to-electrify industries, fertilizer production, petroleum refining, maritime shipping, heavy-duty trucking, and aviation. As momentum builds behind…

Decarbonizing the Asia-Pacific: Why the Asian Development Bank should start funding nuclear energy
The Asia-Pacific is home to some of the world’s fastest growing economies. Energy demand is expected to rise at least a quarter by 2050, yet the region remains highly reliant on fossil fuels for its economy. Decarbonizing the region is a major challenge, but not insurmountable – especially with financial…
