Indian scientists developed hydrogen using hybrid material

A group of Indian scientists have designed a hybrid material which can absorb the Greenhouse Gas (GHG) methane and convert it to clean hydrogen. They have also simulated a process of capturing carbon dioxide and converting it to high-purity hydrogen. The scientists from the Indian Institute of Chemical Technology (IICT), Hyderabad, have also set up

Maersk and its partners to establish pilot green methanol plant in Singapore

Six leading companies have formed a partnership that aims to establish Asia’s first green e-methanol plant which converts captured biogenic carbon dioxide (CO2) into green e-methanol, a low carbon fuel, that could enable a significant reduction in greenhouse gas emissions. The pilot plant will be set up in Singapore pending successful conclusion of feasibility studies

Non-fossil fuels forecast to be 50% of China’s power capacity in 2022

Non-fossil fuel energy sources such as wind, nuclear, solar and hydropower may make up half of China’s total power generation capacity by the end of 2022, for the first time ever, the country’s electricity council has forecast. China, the world’s biggest greenhouse gases emitter and coal consumer, is expected to add 180 gigawatts (GW) of

Decarbonizing marine shipping: Clean fuels for a greener future?

Ship fuels manufactured using renewable electricity, and made purely from water and the gases found in the atmosphere, are being proposed as the solution to decarbonizing marine shipping. Net-zero by 2050 Countries around the world, including Canada, are adopting greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions targets of zero emissions by 2050. The global marine shipping industry is

China’s removal of renewable energy subsidy will affect fight against climate change

China’s decision to remove subsidies from the renewable energy tools will discourage the use of cleaner sources of energy and adversely impact the fight against climate change, reported Canada-based thinktank, International Forum for Rights and Security (IFFRAS). China, the largest emitter of greenhouse gases, is also the largest user of energy and amid this, the
