Everyone's crazy about nuclear power, but the climate doesn't need it. So says a new report by the European Environmental Bureau, unsurprisingly released on March 21, the same day world leaders...
We already knew it: the National Energy and Climate Plan (NECP), is far from ambitious. Rather, it is ambiguous on many points, since it refers to " technological neutrality" regarding energy source...
Another year has come to an end. There are those who reflect on these past twelve months while others prefer to look to the year ahead. We of Renewable Matter, who by nature are always looking ...
If we look at the scenario of a zero-emission Europe in 2050, and study the various strategies to get there, forest and agricultural biomass are one of the most debated and divisive energy sour...
Peak emissions from fossil fuels could be reached by 2025, with the contribution to global energy supply falling to 73 percent by 2030, after for decades it had been stuck well above 80 percent...
