Energy
India is expected to commission 45-50 GWh of battery energy storage capacity in 2027-2028, a significant increase from 1 GWh by end of 2026. However, 8-9 GWh of planned capacity faces delays due to weak returns and limited developer experience.
Climate
US electricity disconnections surged 28% in July 2026, the hottest month on record, with 173,598 households losing power across 10 states. Rising energy costs and extreme heat have created a crisis where vulnerable households cannot afford utilities during dangerous weather.
EV
Australian EV sales reached a record 157,957 units in the first half of 2024, more than doubling year-on-year with one vehicle sold every 100 seconds. The Electric Vehicle Council reports this represents a 117% increase compared to the same period last year.
EV
GM announced it will be the first to mass-produce prismatic LMR battery cells, delivering 33% higher energy density than LFP batteries at comparable cost.
EV
General Motors is proceeding with manufacturing EV batteries using a new LMR formula that improves performance and reduces costs. The company remains committed to this battery technology initiative despite recent changes in federal energy policy.
EV
A new analysis shows EV driving costs half as much as diesel in Europe, with diesel prices rising significantly since early 2022. EU leaders are discussing the energy crisis as the economic case for electric vehicles strengthens.
EV
A new T&E analysis reveals that electric vehicles retain their value better than industry estimates suggest. The finding could make EV leasing more affordable and encourage faster EV adoption.
Energy
Ameren Missouri filed a long-range energy plan that would increase fossil fuel reliance to power data centers, dropping its net-zero emissions goal from promotional materials.
Policy
UK creates state-owned GB Grid company to compete with private network operators in energy connections policy overhaul. Self-build reforms and competitive tendering for transmission projects are planned following Ireland's successful model.
Ocean
Researchers in Japan have discovered plastic thermally bonded to coral rubble, termed "plasticoral," raising concerns about chemical leaching and microplastic spread. The finding highlights a new mechanism for ocean pollution affecting marine habitats and ecosystems.
Wildlife
Over 250 kiwi birds have been successfully returned to Wellington's hills for the first time in 150 years through the Capital Kiwi Project. The effort involved collaboration between iwi, community members, and landowners to restore the native species to the region.
Wildlife
Cambodia protects Siamese crocodiles in the Cardamom wetlands, where Indigenous Chorng communities helped researchers rediscover the critically endangered species after feared extinction.
Energy
Power Electronics is constructing a 40 GW manufacturing facility in Houston, Texas to produce equipment for solar, energy storage, data centers, EVs, and industrial applications. The factory represents a significant expansion of domestic renewable energy component production capacity.
Ocean
Singapore's island merger plan threatens to destroy coral reefs that have survived seven millennia of colonization and industrialization. Marine biologists warn the project would eliminate critical coastal ecosystems including seagrasses, mangroves, and corals.
Wildlife
An analysis reveals Amazon species could yield $215 billion in undiscovered medicines, but deforestation threatens to eliminate them before science can identify them.
Policy
Justice Samuel Alito recused himself from a major Supreme Court climate case one week before oral arguments after months of resistance. Legal experts warn his fossil fuel stock holdings may continue to influence other climate-related decisions.
Policy
A new study reveals fossil fuel companies have spent decades influencing university research through donations and donor networks. The erosion of academic autonomy has made universities more vulnerable to corporate interests in climate and energy research.
Ocean
A Kelvin wave phenomenon could raise California sea levels by up to a foot as El Niño strengthens, increasing storm surge and flooding risks. Scientists attribute the threat to weakened trade winds that are allowing warm water to accumulate along the Pacific coast.
Policy
Atrazine, a hormone-disrupting herbicide banned in 60 countries, contaminates approximately 25% of continental US rivers at levels harmful to wildlife and potentially threatening human health. The contamination affects over 20% of surface drinking water intakes and hundreds of thousands of private and commercial wells.
Energy
Heat pump sales surged 11% across Europe in the first half of 2024, driven by rising gas prices from geopolitical tensions and tax reductions on electricity. The EU is encouraging member states to lower electricity tax rates below those on gas to further boost adoption.
Policy
The US lost 36,949 clean energy jobs in 2025, marking the first decline since the pandemic ended four years of growth. The job losses were attributed to federal support rollbacks for clean energy and EVs by the Trump administration and Republican Congress.
Energy
The US is projected to add 82.7 GW of renewable energy and battery storage capacity over the next 12 months while fossil fuel capacity declines by 1.4 GW, according to EIA data.
Policy
The Trump administration finalized a rule rolling back federal fuel economy standards, making vehicles less efficient. The policy is expected to increase fuel costs for consumers and raise vehicle emissions.
EV
A Transport & Environment analysis shows electric trucks are already cheaper to operate than diesel in six of nine major EU markets. The total cost of ownership study indicates e-trucks represent the best financial choice across markets accounting for significant regional commercial transport.
EV
The EU's Alternative Fuels Infrastructure Regulation is being revised to improve public EV charging coverage and ensure price transparency across member states.
