Hyke Electric Ferry Pilot Demonstrates Success in Norwegian Public Transport

Hyke Electric Ferry Pilot Demonstrates Success in Norwegian Public Transport

Hyke's fully electric F-15 Shuttle has completed a successful 14-month pilot in Fredrikstad, Norway, showcasing its potential as a cost-effective urban mobility solution. The ferry, part of Fredrikstad's municipal transport system, carried over 41,000 passengers on a 225-meter river crossing route. The electric ferry demonstrated up to 88% lower energy consumption compared to diesel vessels, using power equivalent to five household hair dryers. The pilot was part of Fredrikstad's sustainable mobility strategy, supported by the Urban Growth Agreement and the EU Horizon Europe SUM program.

Global Wind Industry Adds Record 165 GW Capacity in 2025, Driven by China

Global Wind Industry Adds Record 165 GW Capacity in 2025, Driven by China

The global wind industry achieved a significant milestone in 2025 by installing a record 165 gigawatts of new capacity, marking a 40% increase from the previous year. This growth was predominantly driven by China, which alone contributed 120.5 GW of new wind capacity. The Global Wind Energy Council (GWEC) reported that Asia, led by China and India, accounted for 80% of the global total, with Europe following as the second-highest region for installations. Despite this progress, the current pace of wind capacity additions still falls short of the levels needed to meet global climate goals. The International Renewable Energy Agency has indicated that 320 GW of new wind capacity needs to be installed annually to triple renewable energy capacity by the end of the decade.

IEA Reports Record Growth in Solar Energy, Declares 'Age of Electricity'

IEA Reports Record Growth in Solar Energy, Declares 'Age of Electricity'

The International Energy Agency (IEA) has released its analysis of global energy trends for 2025, highlighting a significant increase in solar energy production. This growth marks the first year of solar's dominance in the energy sector, contributing to the rise of carbon-free energy sources outpacing demand. The report notes a substantial increase in battery storage and a stagnation in fossil fuel use, leading the IEA to declare the onset of the 'Age of Electricity.' The analysis covers various energy uses, including the electrical grid, transportation, and home heating, and observes a shift towards electrification, with electric vehicle sales rising by nearly 40 percent.

China Urges Industry Cooperation to Address Solar Overcapacity Crisis

China Urges Industry Cooperation to Address Solar Overcapacity Crisis

China has called for coordinated efforts within its solar power industry to tackle the issue of severe overcapacity. The country's solar manufacturing capacity significantly exceeds global demand, leading to a domestic price war. The Chinese government is advocating for measures such as capacity control, standard guidance, price enforcement, mergers and acquisitions, and intellectual property protection to promote high-quality development in the photovoltaic industry. This initiative follows a meeting involving key agencies and major state-owned power generators, emphasizing the need for inter-departmental coordination to address the industry's challenges.

Tasmania Launches Electric Hydrofoiling Network Amid Global Oil Crisis

Tasmania Launches Electric Hydrofoiling Network Amid Global Oil Crisis

Tasmania is pioneering a new model of sustainable transport with the launch of Australia's first electric hydrofoiling passenger network on Hobart's Derwent River. The initiative, led by Fly Derwent and New Zealand marine innovator Vessev, introduces the VS-9, a 10-seat, fully electric hydrofoiling catamaran. This vessel lifts clear of the water on carbon fiber foils, cruising at 25 knots with zero emissions. The project aims to reduce environmental impact and operating costs, insulating Tasmania from reliance on imported diesel and fossil fuel volatility. The network will also include VS-12s, carrying 30 passengers each, marking the first global order of this vessel. The initiative is seen as a response to the global oil crisis, offering a sustainable alternative to conventional diesel-dependent ferry services.
