Hyundai Motor Group is pouring $6.3 billion into South Korea's western coast to build an AI data center, robotics factory, and massive renewable energy infrastructure. The ambitious project will transform a historically overlooked region into a high-tech manufacturing hub.
A Chinese company just launched a balloon-supported wind farm that floats two kilometers above ground, tapping into stronger, steadier winds than traditional turbines. The prototype is already feeding clean electricity into the grid.
Scientists are making clean hydrogen cheaper and safer by eliminating harmful forever chemicals and slashing the use of rare metals. The breakthrough could finally make green hydrogen competitive with fossil fuels.
When California's Central Valley farmers ran out of water, they found a brilliant solution: transform 136,000 acres of unused farmland into the nation's largest solar installation. The project keeps farms alive while powering one-sixth of California's energy needs.
Scientists in Japan solved a decades-old battery problem that could make electric cars cheaper and last longer without using controversial cobalt. The breakthrough uses abundant manganese instead, potentially accelerating our shift to clean energy.
Scientists have discovered massive reserves of naturally occurring hydrogen deep underground that could meet global energy needs for two centuries without producing carbon emissions. Unlike manufactured hydrogen, this "white gold" energy source forms naturally through geological processes and costs nothing to make.
Scientists created a "solar battery" that stores sunlight for days and converts it into clean hydrogen fuel on demand, even in complete darkness. This breakthrough could transform how we power energy-intensive industries with renewable energy.
American clean energy investment reached $120 billion in 2025, proving the renewable energy transition continues to accelerate even during uncertain times. Companies are now using clean energy tax credits as a standard business strategy, with nearly a quarter of Fortune 1000 firms participating.
Nine European nations just committed to building enough offshore wind farms to power 100 million homes by 2050. The ambitious plan could create 90,000 jobs while slashing electricity costs by 30% over the next 15 years.
Costa Rican families now play a game spotting electric vehicles on the road, just like they did with Volkswagen Beetles. The country leads Latin America with EVs making up 16% of all new car sales in 2024.
Electric vehicle drivers in rural Humboldt County are proving the naysayers wrong with real savings and surprising range. The local energy authority just released data showing EVs save drivers up to $1,000 yearly on fuel alone.
Eleven major Australian groups just delivered a game-changing plan requiring data centers to run entirely on new renewable energy. The move protects everyday electricity bills while creating thousands of clean energy jobs.
A small Baltic nation just proved big climate wins are possible, reaching a major solar milestone years earlier than expected. Latvia's solar capacity exploded from nearly zero to 1 gigawatt in just four years.
Korea's national railway just signed a deal to transform train stations, tracks, and unused land into solar power hubs. It's part of a worldwide movement putting clean energy on the rails.
One of Britain's largest power plants is ending its use of controversial Canadian wood pellets after years of criticism for burning trees from old-growth forests. The Yorkshire plant will switch entirely to U.S.-sourced biomass by 2027.
A clean technology company wants to build a $180 million facility in Sanford, Maine, that transforms sewage waste into renewable energy. The project could revolutionize how communities handle biosolids while creating clean power.
America's clean energy revolution is accelerating faster than anyone predicted. Solar, wind, and battery storage will account for every bit of new power capacity added to the grid this year.
The Drax Group just delivered a record-breaking year for renewable power, generating enough clean energy to power millions of UK homes. The company is now planning major investments in battery storage and flexible energy solutions while returning over £1 billion to shareholders.
When water ran out, California farmers found a brilliant solution: transforming 200 square miles of unplantable land into the nation's largest solar farm. The massive project will power entire cities while keeping farming communities alive.
Wind turbines in the Netherlands now paint the night sky with synchronized green laser beams, transforming renewable energy into mesmerizing art. Artist Daan Roosegaarde created "Windlicht" to help people fall in love with clean energy.
