Clean-energy deployment depends on cells, batteries and electrolysers that are manufactured in a small number of countries. Several economies are deciding to reduce this concentration risk. Subsidy…
Electrification, variable generation and rising demand are increasing both the scale and complexity of electricity systems. Across markets, ageing infrastructure and long connection queues are…
India has run one of the world's largest clean-cooking efforts, using several approaches at once. LPG access was extended at scale through PM Ujjwala Yojana, with over 10 crore connections. Piped…
Around 2 billion people still rely on traditional fuels for cooking: wood, charcoal and biomass, with significant health, environmental and economic consequences. The burden falls overwhelmingly on…
Energy companies are using AI to improve predictive maintenance, reservoir modelling, inspection, process optimisation and asset performance. Robotics, drones and autonomous systems are extending…
The first major wave of EVs and storage batteries is approaching end of life, creating new opportunities for reuse and mineral recovery. Recycling can recover lithium, cobalt and nickel, reducing…
India is one of the world's largest refiners and a major exporter of petroleum products, with capacity above 267 MMTPA and expected to grow to 310 MMTPA by 2030. Stagnant or declining refining…
Indian professionals hold senior positions across global energy companies, research institutions and investment firms. This represents a substantial pool of expertise, capital and networks sitting…
Geothermal power has been limited to a few regions with accessible heat close to the surface. New drilling techniques, enhanced geothermal systems and closed-loop designs could extend geothermal…
Energy and water are tightly linked. Power generation, hydrogen production, mining and refining all need water, while pumping, treatment and desalination all need energy. As both systems come under…
Refineries are being redesigned as crude slates vary, fuel specifications tighten and margins come under pressure. Three shifts stand out: flexibility to process more crude grades and tune product…
Globally, there is a broad push to address shipping emissions, with LNG, methanol, ammonia and biofuels all in contention as the fuel of choice. Regional rules in Europe are already imposing…
Carbon capture, utilisation and storage (CCUS) sits at very different levels of maturity and cost across applications. Capture on concentrated streams is commercially viable in places, while capture…
Steel accounts for roughly 7 to 11% of global CO₂ emissions and remains central to economic growth and infrastructure. Lower-carbon production routes require clean power, hydrogen, carbon capture and…
Demand for critical minerals is rising sharply as clean-energy systems, electrification and AI infrastructure expand. The IEA estimates that more than USD 750 billion of investment in mining and…
Women hold senior operating, technical, investment and board positions across the global energy sector. They are directly shaping decisions on where capital goes, which technologies scale and how…
Manufacturing of solar modules, cells, wafers and polysilicon is concentrated in a small number of countries. One country holds more than 80% of capacity at every stage of the solar supply chain,…
Carbon markets are expanding across major economies, from established compliance systems such as the EU Emissions Trading System to a range of voluntary markets. Their designs differ widely in…
Clean-energy employment is expanding rapidly, while conventional energy systems continue to require deep specialist expertise. The skills the sector needs are changing faster than its talent…
India's ambition to become a developed economy by 2047 will require a much larger and more resilient energy system. Demand will rise rapidly with industrialisation, urbanisation and rising incomes,…
The next wave of upstream, LNG, grid, renewable and lower-carbon projects is colliding with limited engineering capacity, constrained fabrication yards, long-lead equipment, skilled-labour shortages…
Energy companies are widening their innovation portfolios across clean fuels, digital, AI and advanced technologies. At the same time, startups are bringing new technologies and business models into…
Rising electricity demand is increasing the need for clean, round-the-clock power. Close to 80 GW of nuclear capacity is under construction globally, while renewables and storage are scaling faster…
