On September 12, the European Parliament took a major step forward by voting in favor of accelerating the deployment of renewable energy, in line with its commitments to the Green Deal and the REPowerEU plan. This update of the Renewable Energy Directive (RED), already approved by MEPs and the Council, aims to increase the share of renewable energy in the EU's final energy consumption to 42.5% by 2030, with an incentive for Member States to reach 45%. This legislation also reduces permitting times for new renewable energy installations, accelerating the transition to a cleaner energy future. Find out how the EU is working to strengthen its commitment to environmental sustainability while reducing greenhouse gas emissions and fostering innovation in the renewable energy sector.

Absorbed in the quest for energy innovation, China is unveiling its major pilot project: a colossal solar farm that will supply a chemical plant with 20,000 tonnes of green hydrogen. Under the aegis of China Petroleum & Chemical Corporation (Sinopec), the "Green Hydrogen Pilot Project" heralds an era of large-scale renewable hydrogen production. This solar farm, located in the Xinjiang region of north-west China, converts solar energy directly into hydrogen using an innovative electrolysis process. This revolutionary project not only significantly reduces carbon emissions, but also promises to be a global model for a cleaner energy transition. Find out how this initiative is transforming China's energy landscape and paving the way for a new era of industrial sustainability.

At a time when the transition to more sustainable energy sources is crucial, a recent study by the International Monetary Fund (IMF) reveals that fossil fuel subsidies reached an unprecedented level of seven trillion dollars worldwide last year. This colossal figure, representing more than 7% of the global economy, raises concerns about the environmental and economic impact of these massive subsidies. This article explores the findings of the IMF study, the regions and countries most affected, and the implications of these subsidies for the climate and the global economy.

"In a recent report by the International Renewable Energy Agency (IRENA), renewables shone in 2022 by saving $520 billion in the electricity sector, thanks to their growing competitiveness against fossil fuels. This significant achievement underlines the central role of renewable energies in reducing energy costs and their crucial contribution to tackling the global energy and climate crises. Let's find out how renewable energies have transformed the global energy landscape and what economic benefits they bring."

This article highlights the importance of agricultural methanisation as a promising solution for the energy transition and decarbonisation. At a time when the IPCC report highlights the urgent need to reduce CO2 emissions, we explore the challenges of electrification and the advantages of renewable gases, highlighting the French methanisation model.

According to the latest update from the International Energy Agency (IEA), the deployment of renewable energies is accelerating strongly around the world. Solar photovoltaic and wind power generation capacity is set to increase by a third this year, thanks to growing political momentum, rising fossil fuel prices and energy security concerns.

According to the recently published annual report of the International Energy Agency (IEA), investment in renewable energies increased significantly last year, marking a positive trend in the global energy transition. This article takes a closer look at the figures and the challenges associated with this trend, highlighting the need to speed up the transition to more sustainable energy sources if we are to achieve our carbon neutrality objectives.
