Ampace is betting on a boom in home energy storage systems and the ‘batterification’ of tools and electronic devices as it aims to solidify an already dominant position in a part of the market away from electric cars and smartphones.

Buyers and exhibitors of new energy equipment at the Canton Fair are showing boundless optimism as orders rise, but measures likely to be taken against the industry by the US and EU could spoil the fun.

Energy-related trade between China and the Middle East is likely to increase significantly and reshape the sector globally in the wake of the Saudi-Iran peace deal brokered by China last year, according to Swiss bank UBS.

An anti-subsidies investigation into Chinese wind turbine manufacturers by the EU could saddle the bloc’s renewable project developers with high costs and slow down their decarbonisation efforts, analysts say. The impact on Chinese firms could be limited.

3 others were injured in the incident at the Bargi plant run by Enel Green Power on Lake Suviana.

EnerVenue, a rechargeable batteries start-up co-founded by the family office of tycoon Peter Lee Ka-kit, aims to build factories in the US and China to commercialise an old technology deployed in outer space for use on Earth.

The nation’s largest oil and gas producer says it is on track to peak carbon emissions next year and double the contribution of low-carbon energy to its output capacity over two years, top leaders say.

Contemporary Amperex Technology is not worried about overcapacity, and in fact will crank up output of its more technologically advanced products, said Robin Zeng, president and chairman of the company better known as CATL.

Reaching 160km/h (99mph) in a trial run, China’s new hydrogen-powered train is touted as a cleaner transport option as the nation strives to peak emissions by 2030.

China’s 2025 decarbonisation goals are in danger of veering off track after policymakers redefined a key energy target that could drive emissions higher, climate experts warn.

The UN’s World Meteorological Organization’s report confirmed preliminary data indicating that last year was by far the hottest year ever recorded/

One study shows distributed energy resources such as small solar panels could one day account for half of the region’s renewable energy output.

The world’s third-largest coal miner, after China and India, undercounts methane emissions from production of the fuel, jeopardising the nation’s international climate commitments.
