Towards a Renewable Hydrogen Strategy for Mongolia
Thanks to its very high levels of solar irradiation and wind-power generation capacity, Mongolia has attracted interest from the private sector as a potential location to develop renewable hydrogen pilot projects. At the same time, the government has included the development of hydrogen production as an element of the energy pillar of its New Recovery Policy.

The Climate Adaptation Feedback
Many behavioral responses to climate change are carbon-intensive, raising concerns that adaptation may cause additional warming. The sign and magnitude of this feedback depend on how increased emissions from cooling balance against reduced emissions from heating across space and time. We present an empirical approach that forecasts the effect of future adaptive energy use on global average temperature over the 21st century.

Charting the Uncharted: The (Un)Intended Consequences of Oil Sanctions and Dark Shipping
We examine the rise of dark shipping – oil tankers disabling AIS transceivers to evade detection – amid Western sanctions on Iran, Syria, North Korea, Venezuela, and Russia. Using a machine learning-based ship clustering model, we track dark-shipped crude oil trade flows worldwide and detect unauthorized ship-to-ship transfers. From 2017 to 2023, dark ships transported an estimated 7.8 million metric tons of crude oil monthly – 43% of global seaborne crude exports – with China absorbing 15%.

Cautious urgency can resuscitate GFANZ 'transition-informed' indexes
Despite growing diffidence towards collaborative action, financial institutions remain committed to their net-zero pledges. Combined with the fact that passive investing continues to dominate asset flows, the critical importance of benchmarks that can align assets with an orderly transition is both clear and growing by the year.

Challenges in India’s tender-driven renewable energy market
Powered by India’s annual bidding plan, a record 73 gigawatts (GW) of utility-scale renewable energy tenders were issued in 2024, with non-vanilla renewable technologies such as wind-solar hybrid and energy storage accounting for half of the issued capacity.

Reimagining European energy security: Towards a whole-of-system approach
The EU needs to look at energy security in terms of the whole system rather than focusing solely on security of energy supply. The old understandings around a fossil fuel-based system do not work for Europe’s security. They make the region reliant on expensive imports and highly vulnerable to external actors who exert a stranglehold over its energy system.

The State of BCAs 2025
As more countries strengthen their climate policies, concerns over carbon leakage—where emissions reductions in one country are offset by increases elsewhere—have grown. To address this, several countries are implementing border carbon adjustments (BCAs), with the European Union (EU) and the United Kingdom set to launch theirs by 2026 and 2027, respectively. This publication is the first of its kind taking stock of this trend.

World Energy Issues Monitor 2025
Energy transitions around the globe are increasingly dynamic, emergent, and self-organising – much like the flocking of birds. Each bird reacts to its neighbours and surroundings, creating evolving formations that may look different from one moment to the next yet remain guided by the same basic rules. Energy transitions follow the same patterns, with a few unifying drivers – like climate concerns, technology advances, and social imperatives – shaping countless local variations, depending on political, economic, and cultural conditions.

Land of Opportunity: Potential for Renewable Energy on Federal Lands
Renewable energy (RE) in the United States has historically been deployed primarily on private lands, but the growing interest in RE development, generally across the country and specifically on federal lands, raises questions about the potential for RE on public lands.

Common European access point for alternative fuels data
The deployment of alternative fuels infrastructure is critical to advancing sustainable transport across the EU. The common European access point (CEAP), mandated by the Alternative Fuels Infrastructure Regulation (AFIR) (Regulation (EU) 2023/1804), aims to facilitate access to data on recharging and refuelling infrastructure.

트럼프 2기 행정부의 자동차 산업 정책 방향
트럼프 2기 행정부의 자동차 산업 정책은 크게 ▲「인플레이션 감축법(IRA)」 ▲자동차 배출가스 규제 ▲관세 정책 ▲이민 정책 변경으로 요약할 수 있습니다. 「인플레이션 감축법(IRA)」의 전기차 세액공제가 축소·폐지될 경우 하이브리드차(HEV)의 중요성이 상대적으로 상승할 전망입니다.

인공지능(AI) 기본법 시행 전 보완을 위한 입법 과제
인공지능(AI)을 둘러싼 글로벌 패권 경쟁이 중국의 딥시크 등장으로 더욱 치열하고 급박하게 전개되고 있다. 국회가 AI 기본법을 제정하고 정부는 2026년까지 GPU 1.8만 장 확보를 발표하는 등 적극 대응하고 있지만, 보다 시의적절하고 유효한 정책 추진을 위해 AI 기본법의 내실을 다지는 보완 입법이 필요하다.

넷제로 시대 에너지 안보와 에너지 믹스 전략에 따른 경기도 대응방안
이 연구는 탄소중립과 에너지 안보 측면에서 에너지 믹스에 대한 방향 제시가 필요하다는 문제의식으로 탄소중립과 에너지 안보를 위한 에너지 믹스 시나리오 방향을 제시하고, 에너지 믹스 개선을 위한 주요 과제를 도출하는 것을 목적으로 한다.
넷제로 시대는 에너지 친환경성, 에너지 경제성과 더불어 에너지 안보가 에너지 전환을 가속하는 시대라 할 수 있는데, 에너지 믹스의 필요성이자 에너지 믹스의 3대 구성 요소이다. 에너지의 성질, 가용성, 비용, 공급 방식 측면에서 서로 다른 여러 가용 에너지원을 적절히 조합하여 에너지 수급을 원활하게 하는 깃이 에너지 믹스인 것이다.
글로벌 에너지 전환 동향을 보면, 에너지 전환은 단지 에너지 전환은 에너지원의 교체만이 아니라 생산, 공급, 소비 구조 전반의 혁신을 수반한다. 탄소중립 달성을 위한 핵심적인 기반을 마련하기 위해서는 효율성, 전기화, 재생에너지 등 세 기둥이 중요하다. 재생에너지는 화석연료 사용을 줄이는 핵심 전략인 전기화의 근간이 된다. 그리고 수소와 CCU/CCS는 이러한 세 기둥을 보완하는 중요한 수단이 된다.
