Global carbon emissions from fossil fuels are projected to decrease by 0.4 per cent in 2026 driven by expansion of solar and wind power and the Iran conflict.

Launched at COP31 in Antalya, an IEA report sets out a package of actions that could reduce global greenhouse gas emissions by more than 1.5 billion tonnes annually by 2035, that is comparable to eliminating emissions from half of the world’s car fleet.

A new IEA forecast sees renewable capacity increase in emerging and developing economies outside China matching that in advanced economies for the first time as Hormuz crisis.

It’s here again. UN Climate Change executive secretary Simon Stiell opened COP31 with the clear statement that “the world is getting dangerously hot”.

The Energy Independence Bill provides a “major overhaul of Britain’s energy system” according to DESNZ.

The Government will pause next year’s Allocation Round 9 (AR9) in order implement reforms aimed at reducing consumer energy bills.

A planned solar farm on the estate of Churchill’s birthplace has been stopped.

The Government is considering a U-turn on the measures driving EV adoption but is currently kicking the can down the road.

As Simon Stiell proclaimed in the COP31 opening speech, electrification and finance would be at the hear of the summit (along with health). And hot on the heels of that speech Octopus has launched an investment fund to help place renewable energy into Asia.

The ninth of November marks 35 years since the UK’s first onshore wind farm began to generate clean power.

Nearly one in three cars sold was electric as EV sales reached a new record in October.

Average energy usage continues to fall across the UK. It is now only 19,668kWh, 6.4 per cent less than last quarter and 10 per cent less than the same period last year.
