With rising temperatures, there is increased pressure to reduce global emissions and meet global climate goals. Carbon capture, utilization, and storage (CCUS) is a technology that provides solutions for net-zero goals. This technology involves capturing carbon dioxide from the atmosphere, converting it into valuable products, and storing it underground. It could help decarbonize key industries […]

Chile’s renewable energy sector has been increasing over the years, changing the energy industry. This change results from the interplay of beneficial natural circumstances, encouraging government initiatives, and private sector funding. In December 2024, 47.0% of Chile’s electricity came from non-traditional renewable sources. Chile possesses many renewable sources, including solar energy, wind energy, hydropower, and

Argentina has put in place policy changes by reducing tariffs on low-cost electric and hybrid vehicles. This aims to promote sustainable transportation and reduce greenhouse gas emissions. This aligns with global trends towards electrification in the automotive sector. Up to 50,000 imports of low-cost EVs and hybrids will be exempt from tariffs a year, according

South America has abundant natural resources, including high solar irradiance and strong winds. The wind resources have led to increased adoption of AI-driven wind turbines that help optimize energy production. Smart turbines use artificial intelligence, machine learning, and IoT technologies. These technologies help to enhance performance, reduce maintenance costs, and improve grid integration. Traditional wind

South America ranks as the second largest producer of hydrocarbons with significant reserves, right after the Middle East. The production of hydrocarbons, such as oil and gas, is essential for the energy transition and ensures energy security. Extra income from oil and gas exports could enhance economic development and increase government revenue. The production of

The Brazilian metals and mining company Vale is working with GreenIron H2 AB to decarbonize the mining and metals supply chain. The partnership aims to leverage green hydrogen produced from renewable energy sources. This involves developing direct reduction facility in Brazil which would use green hydrogen to reduce iron ore into iron. The collaboration represents
