Local solutions for regional problems are the most overrated keys when it comes to unlocking efficiencies. Mega projects deploy at scale, using economies of scale, but some could argue that this model is outdated. In smaller, more remote, less...

Engineering innovation and pioneering technology is required at unprecedented levels as Europe races towards net-zero. People want decarbonisation and sustainability going forward, but they need affordability as part of the mix. To deliver on these...

The global ‘energy centres’ are working through tough times. In the UK, Aberdeen is once again faced with an industry slowdown on the back of policy uncertainty. In the Netherlands, the Port of Rotterdam has received a lot of investment but is...

Excitingly, carbon capture – so often lauded as a technology of the future that will change the game – is now being proven. UK company, Landmark Power Holdings has utilised a system from ASCO, alongside an engine set from Rolls Royce mtu, packaged...

The energy transition has, from the very start, required innovation at scale - new ideas and pioneering thought the likes of which have not been seen for generations. Some new ideas have been quite literally amazing, and others have dropped away....

Across Europe, it seems that many business leaders have an out of office automatic reply on and are soaking up the sun. Western Europe has experienced a number of official heatwaves, and the records are tumbling for hottest months. Perhaps it shows...

At Energy Storage Germany in June, there is a lot of talk about how the superior German grid can accommodate new technology while engineering upgrades at a rate not seen before. Like many top European economies, Germany is expecting solar, wind,...

With many of the big-name players in energy making renewable energy investments—and with many of them successful—there is still a need for more genuine involvement from smaller dedicated providers who understand the industry and have experience in...

The New Year brings… well, the same as the last, much hope, positivity, and potential. Hydrogen is here, renewables are the backbone, and the desire for cleaner and more sustainable energy systems comes not only because it is the right thing to do...

At the end of the calendar year, we see no slowdown in the major impact-making projects that continue to bolster the renewable energy industry, providing further security for grids, all over Europe. In the UK, the ambition is clearer than ever...

Something that we are constantly reminded of is the level of skill in the UK engineering space. The ingenuity, persistence, and ability to think outside of the box is unmatched (not to be biased). From Aberdeen to Pembrokeshire to Lowestoft to...

The innovation underway in the energy industry is simply unbelievable. Right now -  today - companies are out there developing the future energy systems that will power life for centuries into the future. However, they are doing so in a way that...

Yet again hydrogen is the talk of the month. So much potential, so abundant, so obviously the next big thing – but not a lot to talk of in terms of actual project rollout? Why is hydrogen production not ramping up as fast as many thought it would?...

Looking longer-term, as net-zero targets approach, companies are building strategies that look beyond the horizon and focus on delivery of changes that will significantly impact greenhouse gas emissions. Here, the energy sector is critical as one...

Excitingly, geothermal is starting to get mentioned more and more in Energy Focus. The industry is often overlooked because of the capital required to start projects, but the endless and widespread availability of deep underground heat is too...

New energies once again take the focus in the last edition of 2023. We close out the year talking to First Light Fusion, the brilliant UK-based fusion energy business that is doing remarkable things to create energy from inertial confinement fusion...

An integrated, combined approach to renewable energy is taking centre stage as developers realise the potential of a linked tactic where solar, wind, and other technologies work in unison to achieve bigger, better, faster results. Taking tools from...
