Fossil Fuel

Ammonia Fuel Engine – Revolutionising Transportation

Ammonia engines combust ammonia using a similar process to standard internal combustion engines. However, ammonia's properties make it inefficient for several common use cases and give rise to dual-fuel engines. Both options are driving investment and innovation in the technology.

Climate Change in South Korea: Floods, Heat and Looking Away

South Korea's strategy to address climate change's impacts is reactive, not proactive, while its newly adopted policies and upcoming plans continue to undermine renewables.

Blue Ammonia Fuel: Usage, Projects and Future

Blue ammonia fuel uses natural gas as a feedstock for hydrogen production and applies carbon, capture and storage (CCS) to reduce overall emissions. However, the viability of CCS and its role in slowing the low-carbon energy transition are concerning. Renewable energy-reliant alternatives are available and should be the focus of decarbonisation efforts.

Heatwaves in 2023: A Glimpse Into the Future of Climate Change

The G20 Summit, the UN Climate Ambition Summit and COP28 are just some of the opportunities to seal the fate of fossil fuels.

Green Ammonia Fuel – The Fuel of the Future?

Green ammonia uses renewable energy to power electrolysis and produces ammonia without carbon emissions. The technology is promising, yet it is still in its early stages. Ongoing investment by the public and private sectors can make it commercially viable.

The G20 Energy Transitions Working Group: A Wasted Opportunity For Progress

The G20 ETWG became the latest conference that failed to produce meaningful fossil fuel phaseout progress.

Shell Pushes LNG Agenda and Backtracks on Sustainability

Oil and gas major Shell has decided to place profits over sustainability, backpedalling from previous commitments to rein in its carbon emissions. Governments must find ways to regulate these fossil fuel-producing giants.

Are Ammonia Fuel Cells the Missing Link For Decarbonisation?

Ammonia fuel cell research is growing as the world searches for viable fossil fuel alternatives. Fuel cells are showing a potential to fill this gap, yet commercial viability remains to be determined.

How Solving Energy Poverty Will Boost Health and Climate Goals

We speak with Sugandha Srivastav of Oxford University about energy poverty, access and developmental economics.

Ammonia Fuel: Advantages and Disadvantages

Ammonia fuel has several characteristics that make it an excellent low-carbon fuel. However, several disadvantages must be addressed before its wide-scale application.

COP28: Qatari and US LNG Uptick To Throw Climate Goals Into Chaos

COP28 Dubai could be jeopardised by massive new LNG investment by Qatar and the US as the world attempts to move away from fossil fuels.

Ammonia Fuel: Powering Global Decarbonisation Efforts

Ammonia, generally used as a major component of fertiliser, is now being seen as a low-carbon fuel source. Yet, before this becomes viable green ammonia production technology must improve.

Oil Market Forecast 2023: Oil To Peak and Renewables To Accelerate

While the oil market for combustion purposes is likely to peak by 2028, according to the IEA, the Asia-Pacific region will continue to push global oil demand. But, with oil demand declining, will developing Asia continue to lock itself into a carbon-intensive future?

The Future Of Hydrogen: Powering The World

Leading international organisations consider green hydrogen a critical part of the world's future energy mix. Public and private sector support will reduce green hydrogen costs and drive technological advancements, boosting demand.
