Top Carbon Capture Projects in 2022
Carbon capture has seen a steady increase over the last several decades. The largest concentration of CCS facilities is currently found in North America, but several other regions are pushing to increase their capacity over the next decade. Carbon capture has yet to see widespread implementation, but as the technology improves and costs decline, we expect to see its adoption increase.
Carbon Capture: Can This Technology Save Our Future?
Carbon capture technology is being implemented across the world. For hard-to-decarbonise industries, this is a potential pathway to remove unavoidable emissions. But, the question remains: what role should carbon capture play in other industries? Some experts see carbon capture as a distraction from the wide-scale adoption of renewables and a way for companies to maintain a "business-as-usual" approach.
New Report Reveals Global Coal Power Capacity is Shrinking
The global coal power capacity is in a decline. While some Asian countries still plan for the construction of new coal capacity, most are starting to realise that fossil fuels are a dead end.
A New Supply Chain Crunch: Renewable Energy Commodities
The next decade will see a boom in demand for renewable energy commodities. However, the world is seemingly not ready to meet it and supply chain crunches from high-impact, low-probability events like the COVID-19 might further complicate the process, delaying the global decarbonisation progress.

The Latest PDP8 Vietnam Draft – Focus on Renewable Energy and a Drastic CO2 Emissions Reduction
The latest draft of the Vietnam PDP8 sends the positive signal that the country is no longer looking in the direction of fossil fuels. Instead, it is further diversifying its low-carbon power sources, planning for notable clean energy growth and a massive CO2 emission reduction.
Burning Plastic: a Real Waste-to-Energy Solution or a Greenwashing Tool?
Burning plastic is touted as an efficient waste-to-energy solution that will solve the plastic problem and help us to move away from fossil fuels. But in reality, it discourages recycling, perpetuates single-use plastic production and impacts health and the environment.
Are Large Japanese Companies Living Up to their Climate Commitments in 2022?
The climate and sustainability-related pledges of Japanese companies are a reflection of the government's commitment. While on paper everything sounds ambitious, the reality is there is much work left to be done on both micro and industry levels.
Asia’s Race to Net-Zero by 2030
Achieving net-zero is the world's top priority. So far, Asia lags behind in its effort to go carbon-neutral. Renewable energy is the key.
