The oil and gas majors are phasing down their renewable strategies. What does it mean for climate goals?
In February this year BP announced it was cutting its investment in green energy ventures from $5B to $2B while reallocating $10B to fossil fuels, and abandoning its 2030 oil output reduction target. Shell has also scrapped its planned 20%
The world’s most-used carbon accounting rule is about to get a major overhaul. What does it mean for clean energy buyers?
The Greenhouse Gas Protocol – the global gold standard for measuring corporate emissions – is under review, and the proposed changes could dramatically reshape how clean energy is bought, sold, and reported. New draft rules are expected by
It’s turbulent times for the wind sector in the US, but the outlook is better across the pond. What can the US learn from Europe?
Nearly 150 days into President Trump’s second term, the outlook for wind energy in the United States - particularly offshore wind - is increasingly bleak. Trump had pledged to end offshore wind development, and now the House Ways and Means
$8 billion in clean energy projects were cancelled this year. Can the US clean energy market survive tariff uncertainty?
The US is risking ceding global market share of clean energy to China, permanently. New tariffs, put in place one day then removed the next. Rising costs for everything along the supply chain. The US clean energy sector is navigating one of
What’s the biggest mistake clean energy developers make when chasing tax equity? | Sponsored content from Foss and Company
Tax equity plays a significant role in clean energy finance, but are developers using it effectively, or are they stumbling over complexities and recent changes? Sylvia Leyva Martinez is joined by Bryen Alperin, Partner and Managing Directo
An energy podcast crossover: Energy Gang and Interchange Recharged join forces to discuss flexibility on the power grid: why it is so important, and how to create it
They called the film Avengers: Infinity War the most ambitious crossover event in history. We can’t quite make the same claim, but at Wood Mackenzie’s 2025 Solar and Energy Storage Summit, we did record a crossover episode. Sylvia Leyva Mar
