Industry: Energy Transition

The Voluntary Carbon Market (VCM) is a dynamic space brimming with potential to combat climate change. It facilitates the trade of carbon credits, each representing one ton of verified CO2 equivalent emissions reduction. Companies and individuals can purchase these credits to offset their unavoidable emissions and contribute to climate action. However, like any nascent market, the VCM is experiencing growing […]

Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) activity in June 2024 accelerated through increased airline adoption, infrastructure expansion, and investment in new technologies. Air New Zealand, Sedona Airport, and Kintetsu World Express expanded SAF use, reflecting a stronger commitment across the aviation sector. Financial and project developments also advanced, supported by collaborations such as the European Investment Bank […]

As the world moves towards a more sustainable energy future, ethanol and methanol could play a key role in powering not just vehicles but also airplanes. With mandates in place in the U.S. and EU for the use of sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) and initiatives by organizations such as the International Air Transport Association (IATA) […]

In a previous blog post, we discussed the difficulties of reducing greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions in the chemical industry. Similar challenges also exist in the oil and gas industry, particularly in the upstream sector, which is known for being one of the most difficult sectors to reduce GHG emissions. According to the International Energy Agency […]

On November 5th Americans will vote for their next president. This election can feel like déjà vu, as the two main candidates are the same as in 2020. According to current polls and reports, the race is expected to be tight. The first debate is scheduled for June 27th and might help inform voters – […]

Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) deployment advanced in June 2024, led by new supply initiatives, technology collaborations, and successful flight demonstrations across Asia and Europe. Marubeni began supplying SAF in Japan, while Neste supported Emirates flights from Singapore and OMV advanced renewable fuel production plans in Romania. Innovation and corporate engagement continued to expand globally. SkyNRG […]

AI is transforming electric utilities’ energy transition by optimizing grid management, renewable integration, asset maintenance, grid integrity, and smart building efficiency.

Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) initiatives expanded in May 2024, supported by early airline adoption, regional logistics, and growing cross-sector collaboration. Vietnam completed its first SAF-powered flight from Singapore, while Vestas in Denmark integrated SAF use in operations for offshore wind development in the Baltic Sea. Partnerships and supply growth advanced across Europe, Asia, and the […]

Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) activity in May 2024 advanced through new airline purchases, corporate partnerships, and technology progress. Singapore Airlines, Boston Consulting Group, and Alaska Airlines expanded SAF use, while London Oxford Airport introduced SAF blends to enhance accessibility. Innovation and project development continued across North America and Europe, with Tidewater Renewables, Cemtiva, and Kent […]

The clean energy revolution is upon us, and the U.S. grid is feeling the growing pains. A staggering 2,600 gigawatts (GW) of renewable energy projects, primarily solar and wind, are lined up waiting to connect to the grid . This clean energy tsunami is more than double the existing generating capacity in the U.S., signifying […]

In a previous blog post, ADI discussed the highly carbon-intensive cement production process and highlighted that the clinker production process is where the majority of CO2 emissions occur. Clinker production emissions primarily result from the calcination process, followed by the use of fossil fuels to meet the energy demand for calcination. Consequently, these areas have […]

As discussed in a previous blog, AI is expected to drive growth in the global economy and the oil and gas industry is no exception. AI is being implemented across the oil and gas value chain and finding uses in everything from exploration to refining. In exploration, AI and machine learning (ML) tools are being […]
