The EU is getting further from its goal of weaning off Russian fossilfuels by 2027. Imports of Russian gas rose by 18 percent last year, a new analysis finds. Read more on E360
The key word here is “ intensity :” Fossilfuel companies often focus on emissions intensity, meaning emissions per barrel of oil, rather than absolute emissions, which is a set number measured in metric tons. That means Exxon still plans to spend the vast majority of its funds on fossilfuel exploration and production.
The report, initially scoped in 2024 and planned for completion by 2027, aims to provide technical guidance on measuring, reporting, and verifying emissions removals from CDR technologies. Fossilfuels, which are central to mitigation discussions but were largely avoided, reflecting ongoing political tensions.

Fossilfuels, which are central to mitigation discussions but were largely avoided, reflecting ongoing political tensions.
The national electricity plan projected that renewables will exceed coal in 2027. Prior to Glasgow, the NRDC had concluded that India was on track to meet its previous commitment to have 40% non-fossilfuel power generation by 2030. Natural gas, oil, and nuclear are minor players.
While industry tried to paint hydrogen combustion engines as a “bridge” technology to hydrogen fuel cells, their own presentations undermined that very point—instead, this path is a clear dead end. We need to make sure regulators like EPA and CARB restrict its usage before it gains a fossil-fueled foothold in the marketplace.
IEA analysts expect this amount to remain relatively stable until around 2027, when consumption levels will start to level off as renewable energy sources start to play a more significant role, particularly in China – the worlds largest coal consumer and producer. This, as there, of course, as with all fossilfuels, is a finite amount.
The legislation covers a wide range of policy changes focused on electrifying vehicles and transit, reducing fossilfuel connections in new construction, and revamping policy related to solar, offshore wind, and other carbon-free energy sources. GW by 2027. Reduction of FossilFuels.
Research shows that halting the burning of fossilfuels in homes and businesses is beneficial for the health of residents and vital to combat climate change. It should thus be replicated throughout the state and nation.
City of New York , plumbing and building trade groups challenged New York Citys Local Law 154 of 2021 , a piece of legislation that prohibits fossilfuel combustion in most new buildings. In general, the limits went into effect in 2024 for buildings under seven stories; for buildings over seven stories, the limits begin in 2027.
Hydrogen may have lost the race to fuel electric cars but it looks a likely contender to replace fossilfuels in trucks, ships, planes and heavy industry. The Tokyo Olympics will be powered by a fuel with ambition – hydrogen. It is planning to replace fossilfuels with hydrogen in heavy industries such as steel-making.
If we assume the same price, but that these plants operate for 13 years (from 2027 to 2040), that’s another $3.2 All told, it will be $4 billion spent on a make-work project for power plant developers and the fossilfuel industry. Why spend $4 billion on fossilfuel infrastructure that may or may not be used?
When the Deep Blue C has been completed, Deep Branch will produce a feasibility study for their first commercial production unit for its single-cell protein Proton which is planned to go live in 2027.
Notably, in the same proposal, the Commission has also included screening criteria for gaseous fossilfuels. The Regulation sets a time limit on the inclusion of nuclear energy but not on fossilfuels and grants the Commission special powers to rule on nuclear taxonomy compliance.
In fact, the market is expected to grow from $886m in 2020 to $2.5bn in 2027, according to the firm Marketwatch. Of course, there is an environmental cost to space, with most launches relying on fossilfuels. Powered by ultra-low-carbon biofuel, it will have 86% fewer emissions than a fossil-fuel rocket.
In other words, between now and 2027, we will collectively install as much wind power and solar pv capacity than we did in the past twenty years, or 2,400 GW. By 2027, solar photovoltaic alone will be taking over coal in terms of installed capacity. These are great news as both solar and wind slash the need for fossil gas and coal.
Despite the worldwide mobilisation towards the adoption of renewable energy, the Brazilian government continues to promote the use of coal, the most polluting fossilfuel. Who will want to invest if in 2027 the transfer [of subsidies] will not continue?”. But Brazil did not sign the agreement. Going against the grain.
To do so, this mechanism will mobilise at least €100 billion in investments over the period 2021-2027 (p.1). In a nutshell, the European Commission acknowledges that the transition towards a climate-neutral economy will have economic and social impacts, especially on regions that rely on fossilfuels extraction and treatment (e.g.
Burning gas and other fossilfuels in homes and businesses is one of the top 5 sources of climate pollution in the U.S. New York City is taking another approach: instead of regulating the efficiency of appliances, it sets indoor air quality standards for fuels burned in new buildings that make burning fossilfuels impracticable.
But this announcement was seemingly at odds with another made just three days earlier, when coal minister Pralhad Joshi confirmed that India intends to increase production for the fossilfuel. According to India’s 2023 National Electricity Plan, the country’s 2026-2027 domestic coal requirement will be an estimated 866.4
The new NRDC report, Waiting Game: How the Interconnection Queue Threatens Renewable Development in PJM , shows that even under ongoing reform proposals, the pace of renewable development in PJM just barely meets minimum clean energy demands of state RPS laws through 2027.
Such a plan should be directly informed by those most harmed to ensure that these rules do not leave behind communities already facing the disproportionate burden of a fossil-fueled freight sector. For the light-heavy-duty (LHD) trucks (Class 3-5, which include F-350 work trucks, package delivery vehicles, etc.),
Earlier this year California became the most recent state to approve a human composting bill, although it’s not set to go into effect until 2027. While the cremation process burns fossilfuels and emits carbon dioxide and particulates into the atmosphere, the environmental impact of cremation versus burial is arguably about the same.
California Sues FossilFuel Polluters California’s climate accountability lawsuit is groundbreaking in several ways: California is the first major fossilfuel-producing state to file a climate accountability lawsuit. California Gov.
billion) is predicted to grow by over 500% by 2027. So would be a renewable energy mandate, such as requiring grow operations to put up a certain number of solar panels to offset energy generated with fossilfuels. Globally, the legal cannabis industry (already valued at $9.2 Again, this is a great thing.
leader in cleaning up the light duty fleet quietly released its own proposal in August: the Department of Transportation’s National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) has proposed to improve fuel economy of passenger cars and trucks steadily from 2027 through 2032 and heavy-duty pickups and vans from 2030 to 2035.
Are they taking the necessary steps to make sure the country will be able to transition as quickly as possible from fossilfuels to renewables? That will include integrating an enormous amount of new clean energy resources in the coming years while allowing fossilfuels to drop out of the system. What do they need to do?
This is roughly the equivalent of taking 66 million fossil-fueled cars off the road for an entire year. Beginning in 2027, the ACF would require all new medium- and heavy-duty vehicles purchased by public agencies to be emissions-free, including large work trucks and vans, street sweepers, vacuum trucks, and other similar vehicles.
More details regarding funding applications will need to be made available by the EPA, and funding is set to remain available until September 30, 2027.
The UN’s Climate Change Conference is just about to kick off in Dubai, juxtaposing the powerful political power of the fossilfuel industry and the desperate need to reduce oil and gas usage as we face an ongoing climate crisis.
The ruling came about as the green groups Greenpeace Norway and Nature and Youth filed a lawsuit asking the Oslo District Court to block the development of the fields, citing a failure to consider the impact of the future use of all the extracted fossilfuels on the global climate through the emissions they will release.
year the vehicle is purchased): 2023, 2027, 2030, 2035. This scenario relies, in part, on the deployment of carbon capture and sequestration (shown as hashed bars) to eliminate global warming emissions from the remaining fossilfuel fleet, but our analysis assumes that this will not reduce the health impacts of such power plants.
Yet this Administration, along with others before it, has deliberately blinkered its review of the climate impacts of massive fossilfuel extraction projects like this one, in a way that allows federal agencies to conclude that these projects won’t jeopardize species.

So far, they have repealed multiple Obama-era regulations aimed at reducing pollution from fossilfuels and combating climate change. The administration tasked multiple cabinet officials with rolling out various components of the plan, including the secretaries of energy, agriculture, and the interior.
Here, we still want to cut global warming emissions by replacing polluting cars with clean vehicles and ramping up renewable energy to phase out fossilfuel powerplants. We could take advantage of Wyoming wind and Nevada solar so California could more quickly shut down fossil-fuel powerplants.
