Global Hydrogen Review 2026 Key questions about hydrogen
How has the conflict in the Middle East affected supplies of fertilisers and chemicals made from hydrogen? The conflict in the Middle East has disrupted not only oil and gas flows, but also global supply chains for hydrogen‑based products, particularly fertilisers and chemicals such as ammonia, urea and methanol. These products account for a large share of hydrogen demand, with ammonia and methanol alone representing roughly half of global consumption.The Middle East plays a critical role in global markets for hydrogen-based products, and a large share of its production is dedicated to exports, making the region a major…

Coal 2025 Executive summary
…In China, which consumes more coal than the rest of the world combined, demand is on course to mirror its 2024 level, as expected. In turn, global coal demand in 2025 is set to be very close to our forecast published in the previous edition of this report a year ago, rising by 0.5% to 8.85 billion tonnes, a record high. Global coal consumption has reached a plateau and may well decline slightly by 2030 Global coal demand is expected to effectively plateau over the coming years, showing a very gradual decline through to 2030 in our latest forecast. By…

How accelerating electrification could strengthen energy security in Southeast Asia
…dominate, meeting over 70% of energy demand growth across this period, with oil accounting for nearly half of total energy consumption.Rapid energy demand growth and continued dependence on fossil fuels brings greater exposure to energy security risks. The region is increasingly reliant on imported fuels, deepening its exposure to price volatility and supply disruptions. The current energy crisis linked to the Middle East conflict has underscored these vulnerabilities. Ahead of the crisis, around 60% of crude oil imports and a third of natural gas imports in the region came from the Middle East. And based on current policy settings…

Global electric car sales continue to break records as affordability improves
Despite recent economic headwinds that have put pressure on the auto sector, global sales of electric cars have continued to break records as electric models become increasingly affordable. Electric car sales exceeded 17 million globally in 2024, reaching a sales share of more than 20%. Just the additional 3.5 million electric cars sold in 2024 compared with the previous year is more than the total number of electric cars sold worldwide in 2020.
In 2025, sales of electric cars are expected to surpass 20 million, accounting for over…

Land-Use Competition between Biodiversity and Net Zero Goals
…Model (REALM), which identifies areas of overlap between renewable projects, critical mineral mining, and conservation priorities. Using Canada as a case study, this report highlights areas of potential land-use conflict and shows how the country can reach its 30% by 2030 target without significantly hindering the wind and solar development needed to achieve its net zero targets. Key points Achieving global energy, climate and biodiversity conservation targets simultaneously has significant implications for land use. At the 28th United Nations Climate Change conference (COP28) in 2023, nearly 200 countries set a target to triple renewable energy capacity by 2030. Based on…

Delivering on the EU’s electrification ambitions
…Today, imported fuels account for around 60% of the EU’s total energy demand and cost the bloc EUR 380 billion in 2024. The risks associated with the EU’s reliance on fuel imports have been highlighted by recent market disruptions linked to the near-closure of the Strait of Hormuz amid the conflict in the Middle East, bringing renewed attention to the EU’s target of increasing electrification from 24% today to 32% of energy consumption by 2030.This commentary is the second in a series examining the case for electrification in the EU. The previous instalment looked at…

Global Critical Minerals Outlook 2025 Broader view on energy-related strategic minerals: What risks to anticipate?
…critical mineral markets, often stemming from the relatively small size and limited transparency of these markets. Among 20 strategic minerals, 75% have shown greater price volatility than oil, and half have been more volatile than natural gas. These risks are also heightened by the fact that many strategic minerals are produced not as co‑products or by-products of primary commodities. Minerals such as tellurium, gallium and germanium are typically recovered during the processing of copper, nickel or aluminium ores, meaning their supply is inherently tied to the output of these primary commodities rather than to their own market dynamics.Trade…
