EU renewable ethanol hits 79% GHG savings

1 week ago | energylivenews.com | Sumit Bose

Renewable ethanol produced by ePURE members and other EU facilities, achieved an average greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions reduction of 79% compared to fossil fuels in 2024. The figures, verified by auditing firm Copartner, underscore the strategic importance of European bioethanol in decarbonising road transport and supporting climate goals.
Natural and tech solutions must work together to remove carbon

1 week ago | energylivenews.com | Sumit Bose

Technology alone cannot remove enough carbon dioxide from the atmosphere to keep global temperatures within safe limits. While engineered solutions are advancing, experts say nature must play a central role in near-term carbon dioxide removal (CDR) efforts. “We must rapidly reduce the production of new greenhouse gas emissions worldwide. At the same time, we must also remove and store excess carbon already polluting the atmosphere,” said Charlotte Streck of the University of Potsdam.
‘Trailblazers’ scheme to support clean commercial transport pioneers

1 week ago | energylivenews.com | Sumit Bose

Aegis Energy has unveiled a new initiative to accelerate the decarbonisation of commercial transport. The Aegis Trailblazers programme will support forward-thinking fleet operators with discounted EV charging, networking opportunities and direct input into the design of future Aegis clean energy hubs. The scheme aims to recognise businesses leading the transition to zero-emission transport.
Abandoned Hull bikes ride again!

1 week ago | energylivenews.com | Sumit Bose

Around 70 abandoned bikes at Hull Paragon station have been saved from landfill and given a new lease of life, thanks to a collaboration between TransPennine Express (TPE) and Hull-based charity R-evolution. The train operator collected the unused bicycles over the past six months from the station and its cycle hub. Instead of disposing of them as waste, they handed them to R-evolution, a social enterprise that refurbishes old bikes to benefit the local community.
Not quite Minister! MPs confused about net zero

1 week ago | energylivenews.com | Sumit Bose

New polling reveals deep confusion among MPs over the UK’s net zero goal, with the majority supporting the 2050 target but many failing to grasp its purpose. The YouGov poll, commissioned by the Energy and Climate Intelligence Unit (ECIU) and Climate Barometer, shows 84% of MPs back the legal target to reach net zero emissions by 2050. But only two-thirds understand that cutting emissions to net zero is essential to stop climate change – a basic conclusion of global scientific bodies.
Natural hydrogen shows promise for clean energy but needs scientific scrutiny

1 week ago | energylivenews.com | Sumit Bose

Naturally occurring hydrogen could become a useful low-carbon energy source – but only if explored with scientific rigour and careful regulation, according to a new report from the Royal Society. The report, Natural hydrogen: future energy and resource, outlines the emerging potential of “white” or “gold” hydrogen, which forms through chemical reactions in the Earth’s crust.
New marine energy taskforce sets sights on £50bn tidal power potential

1 week ago | energylivenews.com | Sumit Bose

The UK has launched a new Marine Energy Taskforce (MET), backed by The Crown Estate and Crown Estate Scotland, to chart a roadmap unlocking the country’s vast wave and tidal energy potential. Unveiled at an event attended by Energy Minister Michael Shanks MP, the MET will run for 12 months, focusing on four key areas: site development, financing, innovation and supply chain growth. The group will be chaired by the Marine Energy Council and supported by the UK, Welsh and Scottish Governments.
Offshore wind sector launches investment guide to supercharge supply chain

1 week ago | energylivenews.com | Sumit Bose

A new guide has been unveiled to drive investment and boost growth in the UK’s offshore wind supply chain. The UK Offshore Wind Supply Chain Investment Guide outlines key funding mechanisms and regional opportunities for businesses. Developed by the Offshore Wind Industry Council (OWIC) in collaboration with RenewableUK and the Departments for Energy Security & Net Zero and Business & Trade, the guide aims to attract both public and private finance to accelerate the sector’s expansion.
Planting trees to offset fossil fuel emissions would cost $11 trillion and need massive land area

1 week ago | energylivenews.com | Sumit Bose

Offsetting the emissions of fossil fuel companies by planting trees is both economically and physically unfeasible, according to a new study from ESSEC Business School. The research found that it would cost at least $11 trillion (£8trillion) and require a forest larger than the combined area of North and Central America to absorb emissions from the world’s 200 largest fossil fuel firms.
NGED and Bath University back data-led energy future in five-year decarbonisation drive

1 week ago | energylivenews.com | Sumit Bose

A pioneering five-year research programme to help electricity networks cut carbon faster has been launched by National Grid Electricity Distribution (NGED) and the University of Bath. Led by Professor Furong Li, newly appointed Royal Academy of Engineering Research Chair, the project will enhance access to open data and modelling tools for UK power networks—supporting smarter, fairer decarbonisation.
