With costs fast declining, sodium-ion batteries look set to dominate the future of long duration energy storage, finds an AI-based analysis that predicts technological breakthroughs based on global patent data.

Energy Monitor sat down with Breakthrough Energy Ventures’ managing director Jim Cabot to find out what’s on the cards for the net-zero transition this year.

Harvard researchers have made a solid-state battery that charges in 10 minutes and lasts for 30 years, but is the technology ready for use?

A Bill Gates-backed start-up has opened the world’s largest carbon removal plant. But ‘carbon casting’ may be limited by biomass supplies.

Inside the global transition to net zero

Iceland is pioneering a circular economy based on its abundant geothermal energy, offering an exciting, replicable template for net zero.

The UK needs to step up action to keep its 2030 climate goals alive, says Climate Change Committee chair Piers Forster in an interview.

Graphene looks set to disrupt the EV batteries market by the mid-2030s, according to a new AI forecasting platform using patent data.

The climate movement’s new radical flank is increasingly taking the fight to the public’s doorstep. But are climate protests working?

Across the energy sector, there are assets at risk of being stranded as a result of the global water crisis, according to CDP research.

In this interview, RMI gives a run-down of its pioneering research into the status of 32 known approaches to carbon dioxide removal (CDR).

Efficiency gains and carbon sequestration could lead the food and agricultural industry to net-zero emissions by 2050.

Efficiency gains and carbon sequestration could lead the food and agricultural industry to net-zero emissions by 2050.

Some suggest it might be easier to stick to fossil fuels and deploy CCUS rather than strive for a massive switch to renewables for net zero.

A moderate energy transition will see 28 petrostates lose over half their fossil-fuel revenues by 2040 as demand drops, says Carbon Tracker.

Investing an additional $1.7trn in upgrading global transmission grids by 2040 could save $3trn on net zero, calculates TransitionZero.

Inside the global transition to net zero

Although passing the $1trn-mark is good news, climate finance flows still fall short of what’s needed to limit global warming to 1.5°C.

A new Zero Emission Boiler (ZEB) has hit the UK market, aiming to offer a low-carbon alternative to heat pumps.

Remarkable growth in clean energy technologies is keeping the energy transition and dream of 1.5°C alive, says a leading IEA expert.
