A marine biologist in Ghana is promoting giant snail farming as an alternative livelihood for fishing communities to reduce pressure on critically endangered guitarfish species. Guitarfish populations face extinction threats from fishing for their fins and meat in West Africa.
Energy
Solar module manufacturers at SNEC 2026 in Shanghai showcased 25% efficiency modules as flagship products, with 24% becoming mainstream and 23% filling cost-effective segments. The shift represents advancing solar panel efficiency standards across the industry.
Policy
South Africa's transition from coal-fired electricity is complicated by hundreds of abandoned mines becoming dumping sites for waste and polluted water. The government is not forcing mine owners to remediate contamination that will persist for decades.
Policy
A Trump administration emergency order will keep a Florida coal plant operating beyond its planned 2025 retirement date, delaying OUC's transition to renewable energy and net zero goals.
Climate
A Guardian analysis reveals that approximately two-thirds of planned US AI datacenters will be built in drought-stricken regions, despite significant water demands. The facilities are being developed in some of the country's driest areas amid record drought conditions and growing concerns about water usage.
Energy
Solar energy is displacing natural gas globally as 61 of 124 gas-generating economies have passed peak gas production. Four G7 nations including the UK and Germany have already shifted away from gas power generation.
EV
Factorial Energy, a solid-state battery maker, has gone public on Nasdaq after demonstrating over 745 miles of real-world driving range. The company plans to use the capital to advance its battery technology development.
Policy
A YouGov poll across five major European countries shows 64% support reducing fossil fuel imports for energy security. Strong backing for electrification and clean energy cuts across traditional political divides.
Policy
Reducing EU EV targets would require building 150 new power plants to balance the electricity grid, making renewable energy transition far more expensive. EVs act as mobile batteries that fundamentally improve grid efficiency and economics.
Policy
The Trump Administration invoked an energy emergency to force Florida's Stanton coal plant to remain operational beyond its planned May 2026 retirement. The decision is expected to increase costs for customers while delaying the transition away from coal.
Energy
US clean energy capacity has grown to power approximately 80 million homes through expanding solar and battery storage pipelines. Solar remains cost-competitive despite reduced government subsidies, particularly in leading solar state California.
Energy
Solar power deployment in Europe is growing rapidly, generating significant consumer savings on energy costs. Europeans are saving $135 million daily through expanded solar energy generation this year.
Energy
Multiple European countries including Germany, Spain, France, Italy, and Portugal are setting new solar power generation records as summer approaches and daylight hours increase. The continued growth in solar capacity demonstrates the expanding role of renewable energy across the continent.
Energy
CATL, the world's largest battery manufacturer, expects half its 2030 sales to come from stationary energy storage systems rather than electric vehicle batteries. This shift reflects growing demand for grid-scale battery storage to support renewable energy integration.
Energy
TOYO Co., Ltd. is investing $357 million to build a 1.5 GW solar cell manufacturing facility in Houston. The HJT solar cell factory will integrate with its existing module plant and secure Section 45X tax credits.
Energy
SNEC 2026 reveals the solar industry undergoing gradual consolidation with companies expanding into storage and diversifying value chains. Manufacturers are shifting focus from volume production to quality and differentiated solutions amid ongoing market oversupply.
Energy
Scientists developed colored solar modules using structural photonic pigments inspired by blue bird feathers. The new technique achieved over 50% efficiency improvement compared to conventional pigment-based coloring.
Energy
African solar power pools face increased synchronization risks as climate change reduces geographic diversification benefits. West and Central Africa could experience over 100 synchronized low-output solar days annually by century's end.
Ocean
Australia's largest harmful algal bloom, which began in March, continues to devastate the Great Southern Reef near Port Hughes, destroying marine ecosystems. The year-long bloom poses ongoing threats to coral, fish, and bivalve species in the region.
