Unlocking Ukraine’s Hydrogen Opportunity: A Roadmap Unlocking the opportunity - A roadmap for action
…Several cross-cutting aspects will play a role in development, including international collaboration and knowledge-sharing, such as through joint projects and platforms. A skilled workforce is needed in government, the private sector and research. Lastly, defining technical standards across the value chain and ensuring compliance will be key. Introduction Hydrogen and its derivatives could offer a valuable opportunity for Ukraine in the long term. Taking advantage of this opportunity will require action outside and within the energy sector to improve the business case for hydrogen projects. Looking at the economy, improving revenues and public finance and debt management will…

Pledges to Progress 2025 Summary of results
The Turning Pledges into Progress framework contains a total of 25 metrics in three categories: 1) target setting (“Targets”), 2) strategies for implementation (“Strategies”), and 3) disclosure and reporting (“Disclosure”). Target setting comprises six metrics related to emissions reductions and investment in clean energy. All the signatories to the Oil and Gas Decarbonization Charter (OGDC) are assumed to have the aim of achieving these targets. Strategies for implementation comprise eight metrics that describe steps companies can take to achieve these targets; and disclosure and reporting comprises 11 metrics allowing stakeholders to assess how companies publicly report information relevant to achieving the OGDC goals…

Global Methane Tracker 2026 Strategies to speed action
…cost-effective at a carbon price of about USD 20 per tonne of carbon dioxide equivalent (tCO2‑eq). Methane abatement has not caught on as widely as it could, for several reasons. Companies may underestimate of the scale of the problem or be unaware of the available solutions. Capital is often steered toward higher-profile projects, while corporate leaders may overstate the costs of cutting methane. Incentives can also be misaligned: equipment owners do not always benefit from fixing methane leaks, contracts may blunt the impact of savings on revenues, and those who own the gas may not recognise its full value…

World Energy Investment 2025 Latin America and the Caribbean
…can be found in Central American Electrical Interconnection System (SIEPAC) and in Brazil, that has been able to implement about 350 independent power transmission (IPT) with a total of 10 500 km of transmission line auctioned in 2024. Moreover, Peru and Chile also implemented IPTs, with the Peruvian government awarding 14 projects worth over USD 2 billion and Chile tendering more than 20 projects valued at USD 900 million. Despite rising investment in renewables, Latin America only accounts for 5% of privately financed global investment in clean energy, reflecting high interest rates, lack of long-term finance and an overall increase in public debt servicing costs…

Renewables for Industry
…electricity supply, can deliver multiple benefits. In addition to reducing fossil fuel use and associated emissions, it can improve energy security by lowering exposure to volatile gas and oil prices and, when integrated with thermal storage, it can create demand flexibility that helps ensure a higher share of variable renewable generation.This report explores how to expand the role of renewables in the industrial energy mix through electrification of low-temperature heat and steam. It focuses on the European Union, China and the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN), examining their techno-economic potential and existing policy environments. Finally, the…

An Energy Sector Roadmap to Net Zero Emissions in Colombia
World Energy Outlook Special Report Colombia has set an ambitious goal to achieve net zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2050. The third-largest country in Latin America and the Caribbean by population, it has seen stable economic and population growth over past decades. A large part of its energy mix is made up of fossil fuels, largely oil, while hydropower provides most electricity. Colombia has abundant untapped solar and wind resources and a strong base of clean energy potential.At the request of the Government of Colombia, the IEA has developed a roadmap to net zero by 2050 for the…

Global Critical Minerals Outlook 2025 Executive summary
…2020. While exploration spending continued to rise for lithium, uranium and copper, it declined notably for nickel, cobalt and zinc. Start-up funding is also showing signs of a slowdown. Today’s low mineral prices are not providing the signal to invest, and projects involving new entrants have been most affected by the uncertainty. Diversification is the watchword for energy security, but the critical minerals world has moved in the opposite direction in recent years, particularly in refining and processing. Between 2020 and 2024, growth in refined material production was heavily concentrated among the leading suppliers. As a result, the…
