In a Reporter’s Notebook, NetZero Insider correspondent Dej Knuckey shares how COP28 left her with feelings of hope and despair.

Renewables pledge calls for ending investment in new coal-fired power plants, "which is incompatible with efforts to limit warning to 1.5°C.”

DOE announced a pair of funding opportunities for battery manufacturing and carbon storage designed to spur grid storage, electrification and emission reductions.

FERC hosted a senior EPA staffer and heard from the industry and states on how the environmental regulator's latest proposal to cut carbon emissions from  power plants will impact grid reliability as it is implemented.

The hydrogen hubs reflect an attempt to balance the conflicting political and energy industry interests that went into the bipartisan infrastructure bill.

DOE grants will be used to help developers make up the difference in cost between building CO2 pipelines for current demand versus projected future demand.

Global investments in renewables are more concentrated not only in developed countries but also in developed technologies. Solar PV and onshore and offshore wind are accounting for almost 97% of investments.

With plans for two more hubs and ongoing R&D, DOE is building out a U.S. ecosystem for the development and commercialization of carbon management technologies.

The two projects are the first of four hubs to get a slice of the $3.5 billion the Infrastructure bill provided to develop the technology at commercial scale.
