Why Context, Not Blueprints, Determines the Success of African Utilities
Reforms in Africa’s electricity sector are by no means new. Many African nations have introduced “a series of policy, regulatory, and institutional changes aimed at improving the performance, efficiency, transparency, and financial viability of the electricity sector” since the 1990s but with uneven outcomes. Although some African countries such as…

Energising the EU: How Nuclear Energy Can Help Decarbonise European Industry
Heavy industries account for over half of Europe’s energy consumption, much of which goes toward heat production – a sector that still widely uses fossil fuels and is thus a major risk to the EU’s ability to decarbonise. Emissions from heavy industries are mostly attributed to high-temperature heat and round-the-clock…

The EU energy transition needs to look beyond LCOE Factsheet
Europe’s power system is undergoing a rapid transformation to meet the intertwined challenges of decarbonisation, affordability, and energy security. Ubiquitous, simple, standardised tools like Levelised Cost of Electricity (LCOE) are widely used by policymakers to compare energy technologies and guide investment decisions. LCOE is not without its limitations, as outlined…

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…

Nuclear Energy Orderbooks 101: Enabling Cost-Effective Nuclear Deployment in Europe
EU Member States expect to deploy at least 60 GW of new nuclear capacity by 2050 to meet its climate and energy security goals. But without greater coordination, the bloc risks a fragmented rollout of new nuclear energy: duplicated efforts, spiralling costs, underinvested supply chains, and project delays. A nuclear…
