Morocco to Build $1.5 Billion Waste-to-Energy Plant in Casablanca

Morocco to Build $1.5 Billion Waste-to-Energy Plant in Casablanca

Morocco plans to construct a $1.5 billion waste-to-energy plant in Casablanca, set to be Africa's second large-scale facility of its kind. The project, led by a consortium including Kanadevia Inova, Nareva, and Itochu, aims to process 1.5 million metric tons of waste annually and generate 115 megawatts of electricity. The plant will transform the Mediouna landfill, reducing greenhouse gas emissions significantly. Construction is expected to begin by the end of 2026, with operations starting in mid-2030.

UK Sees Surge in Secondhand EV Leasing as Drivers Seek to Cut Costs

UK Sees Surge in Secondhand EV Leasing as Drivers Seek to Cut Costs

The UK is experiencing a significant increase in secondhand electric vehicle (EV) leasing, with a 170% rise in the past year. This trend is driven by rising petrol prices and the availability of more used EVs as early adopters upgrade. The British Vehicle Rental and Leasing Association reports that personal contract hire for used cars has increased sixfold. The demand for secondhand EVs is further supported by salary sacrifice schemes, making electric driving more accessible to a broader audience.

Study Reveals Misconceptions in Public Perception of Climate Action Effectiveness

Study Reveals Misconceptions in Public Perception of Climate Action Effectiveness

A study conducted by the University of Geneva (UNIGE) has highlighted significant misconceptions in public understanding of the effectiveness of various climate actions. The research, published in Nature Sustainability, surveyed nearly 3,000 individuals to assess their 'carbon competence'—the ability to accurately evaluate the impact of different actions on greenhouse gas emissions. The findings indicate that many people overestimate the impact of low-effort actions like recycling, while underestimating the benefits of more impactful measures such as reducing air travel or car use. The study identifies psychological biases, such as the 'availability heuristic' and 'motivated reasoning,' as key factors contributing to these misperceptions. These biases lead individuals to perceive actions that are more frequently discussed or personally practiced as more effective than they actually are.

European Commission Approves Dutch State Aid for Sustainable Aviation Fuel

European Commission Approves Dutch State Aid for Sustainable Aviation Fuel

The European Commission has approved two Dutch state aid schemes totaling 290 million euros to support the production of sustainable aviation fuel (SAF). These schemes are part of the EU's efforts to decarbonize the aviation industry and align with the ReFuelEU aviation regulation. The aid will support projects producing approximately 285,000 metric tons of SAF annually, equivalent to 350 million liters of kerosene. The schemes will provide investment aid for SAF production and cover preparatory works for SAF projects. The aid will be distributed on a first-come-first-served basis and aims to foster technological diversity by supporting advanced biobased SAF and synthetic aviation fuels.
