Energy Infrastructure

The European Round Table for Industry reports, authored by the Boston Consulting Group, highlight challenges in Europe's energy transition, advocating for regulatory changes to foster competitiveness amid higher energy costs, risk of deindustrialization, and the need for large-scale investment in energy infrastructure to meet Green Deal goals.

The OneNet Project Final Event marked the culmination of efforts to reshape Europe's electricity system. Key topics included TSO-DSO coordination, market design, consumer engagement, and leveraging data for grid operations. The initiative aligns with EU interoperability objectives and promotes a sustainable, unified market.

The European Union is intensifying efforts to foster green hydrogen as a key component of its energy and climate strategy. Policies are being developed to support the production, distribution, and use of green hydrogen, aligning with the EU's broader goals of achieving carbon neutrality and sustainable economic growth.

The IEA Electricity Market Report 2023 paints a picture of a world grappling with the dual challenges of meeting growing energy demands and transitioning to a more sustainable and low-carbon energy future. Low-emission power sources are poised to meet nearly all the global electricity demand growth by 2025.

Hydrogen is a versatile and clean energy source that can be used for a variety of purposes. One of the main challenges in the widespread adoption of hydrogen as an energy source is the efficient production of hydrogen. In this article, we will briefly showcase 5.

The "Hydrogen Patents for a Clean Energy Future" report highlights hydrogen's role in sustainable energy. It details its growing importance, especially in Spain's renewable energy sector. The study covers increased hydrogen-related patent activities from 2011-2020, advancements in production technologies, and its diverse end-use applications. The report concludes with hydrogen's potential in the global energy transition.

A Space-based Solar Power (SSP) station would have the potential to mitigate climate change through the provision of clean energy. SSP is not only considered more efficient than ground-based solar stations but it is also immaculately clean and infinitely available.

Biomass plays a crucial role in the production of zero-carbon heat and electricity. The future of biomass in industrial applications remains promising. Some industries, such as the cement industry, have already invested heavily in adapting their processes to use biomass.
