After 18 months of work, the largest industrial onshore wind farm in Flanders, with 11 new wind turbines, is now operational at the Port of Zeebrugge and will be able to create 'shore power' or so-called ‘cold ironing’. 

In order to boost environmental technology and provide industry energy-efficient solutions, four companies are joining forces in a new cleantech group, named as HAV Group ASA. To better explain, HAV Design AS, HAV Hydrogen AS, Norwegian Electric Systems AS and Norwegian Greentech AS are bringing together their expertise and experience in a new group under the name HAV Group ASA, with a view to strengthening and highlighting their environmental technology. As informed, HAV Group's vision is to contribute to the green shift in the maritime and marine industry by producing innovative and profitable solutions. "We are now establishing HAV Group to further enhance innovation so we can steer the maritime and marine industry through the green shift, contribute to reducing environmental footprint, reduce emissions and accelerate the development towards zero emissions". ... Gunnar Larsen, CEO of HAV Group said. In addition, partners stated that the companies in the group will generate more value together than individually, and that the stock exchange listing is related to their wish to enable investments in a listed growth company and to position the new group for growth. "The technology and expertise we possess put us well positioned for further growth based on the major ...

In an effort to accelerate the development of a green and low-carbon circular economy and hit peak carbon emissions at around 2030 and carbon neutrality by 2060, State Council of the People's Republic of China issued a guideline for all-levels of governments.

The Global Wind Energy Council and The Global Solar Council, jointly called Mexico to urgently restore the country’s transition away from expensive and polluting fossil fuels, and reset the course to a sustainable future based on competitive, clean renewable energy.

The Coalition for the Energy of the Future, gathering transport, energy and other companies from around the world with the ambition to reduce emissions, unveiled seven projects to be realized within 2021.

In order to meet its climate targets, Belgium should move beyond local renewable energy production and import solar or wind energy from countries with plenty of wind and sun. A new study by the hydrogen import coalition reveals that this is both technically and economically feasible.

On 11 February 2021, the revised UK Oil and Gas Authority (OGA) Strategy has come into force, reflecting the energy transition and featuring a range of net zero obligations on the oil and gas industry.

In an effort to enhance an environmentally-friendly recovery from the COVID-19 oubreak, South Korea unveiled a 48.5 trillion plan to develop the world’s largest wind power plant by 2030.

The International Energy Agency (IEA) informed that will produce the world’s first comprehensive roadmap for the energy sector so as to achieve net-zero emissions by 2050.

Carbon capture and storage (CCS) solutions could address about 42% of the world’s total dirty footprint, Norwegian intelligence firm Rystad Energy said in its monthly Energy Transition Report. The release came as the adaptation of renewable energy technologies is accelerating, even during the pandemic, and three contenders – carbon capture and storage (CCS), battery storage and hydrogen – have begun a competitive race to reduce emissions. After analyzing the full scope of global CO2 emissions, Rystad has concluded that CCS solutions could address about 42% of the world’s total dirty footprint, but will likely not reach its full potential, as competing hydrogen and battery societies will also target their fair share of the global pie. The core applications for CCS are within natural gas processing, power generation, hydrogen production (steam methane reforming or SMR), and industrial processes. Today, the vast majority is related to natural gas processing and hydrogen production for use in refining and fertilizer production. Not surprisingly, we find the largest CCS potential in China, India and the US, where power and combustion outweigh process emissions. The power sector, although significant, is less likely to utilize CCS than industry, as renewable energy – given the fast decline in ...
