“Green tariffs” and other emissions-related regulations coming to the EU this year
The EU’s new green tariffs, also known as border carbon adjustments, are intended to level the playing field for European companies by imposing tariffs on imported goods from countries that do not have equivalent carbon pricing or climate regulations. The tariffs would apply to a wide range of products, including steel, aluminum, cement, and chemicals. Companies that produce these goods in countries without equivalent climate regulations would likely face higher costs, which could be passed on to consumers in the form of higher prices.

The European Summit on Energy Efficiency for the Life Sciences Industry
The 2022 Future Bridge hybrid conference was held in Berlin. Over the course of two days, attendees viewed presentations and case studies from industry experts, while enjoying numerous networking activities. The conference was dedicated to the vital need for efficiency in the energy-intensive pharmaceutical industry. Life sciences are 55% more emission-intensive than the automotive industry, and as the world decarbonizes, it is crucial to limit energy expenditure. Pharmaceutical companies need to certify that their facilities are energy efficient to comply with future regulations while still providing the world with life-saving medication.
The Future of African oil and gas
With 1.2 billion inhabitants and 30 million square kilometers, Africa is often forgotten during the debates about renewable energy. The continent is actually rich in oil, gas, and other valuable fossil fuels. It is also one of the most mineral-rich areas in the world. But inefficiency and poor management have led to an underdeveloped energy industry. Indeed, Africans struggle with electricity supplies in general. So what are the opportunities and possibilities of oil and gas in Africa?
Impact of the COVID-19 Pandemic Crisis on the Efficiency of European Intraday Electricity Markets
