The EU promised a renewable energy future – but is it still on track? As political shifts, policy delays and legal battles unfold, the energy transition faces new hurdles. Are we still moving forward, or is Europe starting to backpedal? Seden Anlar reports. Once upon a time – 2019, to be exact – the European Green Deal was the golden child of EU policy.
It looks like the post-COVID commodity party is over - with the World Bank predicting a rather bleak end. In its latest report, the bank predicts that global commodity prices will plunge 12% in 2025 and another 5% in 2026, dragging them all the way back to their pre-pandemic levels. The World Bank expects energy prices, specifically, to fall 17% to their lowest levels in five years, and then another 6% next year.

Isn’t it shameful how major Ivy League universities, like Cornell, Harvard, and now Dartmouth, sell out to the radicalized left? They offer up (sell) their prestigious names to be plastered on blatantly fake research studies that bash fossil energy. In a new study published in Nature, researchers from Dartmouth College have compromised their integrity, arguing.
The only refinery in Scotland has stopped processing crude oil after 100 years of operation, as planned by its owners who announced the decision in the autumn of 2024.

The tariff threats could reduce electricity demand in Europe as investors could be more hesitant to invest in new factory capacity amid the ongoing trade wars, the top executive of Swedish utility giant Vattenfall told Reuters on Tuesday. I think we see a bit of hesitation when it comes to investments and the next steps, and that could possibly delay the increased (power) demand somewhat, Anna Borg, chief executive officer at Vattenfall, told Reuters.
Local municipalities with radical political leaders, along with some “blue” states run by radical Democrats, have attempted to strip away the right of their citizens to freely choose which energy source they want to use. It’s about as anti-American as it gets, against the very founding of this country. Yet it happens.
