In Indonesia, the Indonesian government has planned to oblige the use of bioavtur or sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) in aviation industry since 2026 or 2027. It will be started with the international flights. Effendi Manurung, Head of Bioenergy Engineering and Environment Sub-division at the renewable energy and energy conservation directorate general of the ministry of […]
In Finland, Norsk e-Fuel AS has been awarded a positive funding decision under Business Finland’s Tax Credit for large clean transition investments scheme for its Finnish subsidiary, Norsk e-Fuel Rauma Oy. The decision grants the project up to EUR 150 million in tax credit support once the facility enters operation. The Tax Credit Scheme by […]
In Canada, the Quebec Government is providing $10.8 million in financial support to Waga Energy Canada for the construction of a renewable natural gas (RNG) production facility at the Régie des matières résiduelles du Lac-Saint-Jean (RMR) landfill site in Hébertville-Station, in the Saguenay–Lac-Saint-Jean region. This funding represents a key milestone in the implementation of the project, […]
In Washington, Pro Farmer reports Energy Information Administration data shows ethanol production broke another record last week at average of 1.196 million barrels per day, well above the levels analysts surveyed by Bloomberg expected of 1.105 million. With the 17 billion bushels of corn produced last season, prices have been very low, providing opportunities for […]
In Belgium, the European Commission has approved, under EU State aid rules, a €200 million German scheme to support the production in Canada of renewable hydrogen and its derivatives, known as renewable fuels of non-biological origin (RFNBOs). These RFNBOs will be imported to Germany and sold in the EU, contributing to the objectives of the […]
In California, NewYork GreenCloud (NYGC) announced the acquisition of the Buena Vista Biomass Power (BVBP) facility in Ione, California. The site will become NYGC’s first large-scale carbon negative AI Factory, integrating biomass-to-pyrolysis energy systems with behind-the-meter, liquid-cooled AI compute. The redevelopment—led jointly by NYGC and BucSha Energy, the project’s biomass-to-pyrolysis engineering partner—will convert the 18MW […]
In Egypt, Prime Minister Moustafa Madbouli asserted the Egyptian government’s commitment to supporting the Green Hydrogen Production Project, which is being implemented by Norway’s Scatec in partnership with the Sovereign Fund of Egypt, Orascom Construction and Fertiglobe in the Ain Sokhna Industrial Zone.

In Norway, a new biogas plant at Svalbard Airport, Longyear, was brought online on January 12. With liquid biogas (LBG) as an energy carrier, the airport will have a fossil-free solution for both electricity and heat – and Avinor is taking an important step towards significantly lower emissions from its own operations. The modular energy […]
In Illinois, Northwestern University and Stanford University synthetic biologists have created a new artificial metabolism that transforms waste carbon dioxide (CO2) into useful biological building blocks. In the new study, the team engineered a biological system that can convert formate — a simple liquid molecule easily made from CO2 — into acetyl-CoA, a universal metabolite […]
In Switzerland, amid rising global energy demand and evolving market dynamics, clean fuels are a key pillar for a more secure, affordable and sustainable energy system. Examples ranging from biofuels, e-fuels and hydrogen derivatives to lower-carbon fossil fuels offer multiple sources of economic and societal value. The World Economic Forum has published a new report, […]
