Hydrogen economy development enters critical phase, says GlobalData
The hydrogen economy has recently experienced some hiccups in its growth story. Apparently, demand for this commodity is not rising at the pace it was envisaged back in 2020 when companies had aggressively announced their energy transition plans. As more industries, such as steel, transportation, and power, try to decarbonize their operations, the demand for low-carbon hydrogen is expected to grow. Nevertheless, the hydrogen economy is currently in its critical phase of its development, says Glo...
Global Grid Digitalization Investment to Hit US$150 Billion by 2030 Amid Growing Demand for Energy Capacity and Flexibility
Investments in energy grid modernization and digitalization have not kept pace with energy demands and requirements over the past years. Given rapid electrification and the ongoing energy transition toward net zero, spending on grid digital transformation needs to accelerate. According to a new report from global technology intelligence firm ABI Research, aggregated worldwide investments in grid digitalization will grow from US$81 billion in 2024 to US$152 billion in 2030. “The benefits of t...

A NIETC is an area of the country where DOE has...
Morningstar DBRS Comments on Impact of Potential U.S. Tariffs or Electricity Export Ban on Ontario Independent Power Producers
Key Highlights • Ontario Premier Doug Ford has threatened to cut off electricity supply to the United States if it imposes a blanket 25% tariff on Canadian goods. • If the tariff or the electricity export ban occurs, we do not expect either to materially affect most power producers with operations in Ontario. • However, we believe that either scenario would decrease the efficiency of electricity systems in both Ontario and connected U.S. states, which would increase overall electricity syste...
