Geothermal energy is poised for a breakthrough in the United States. One of the vanishingly few clean energy forms that made it through the Trump administration’s One Big Beautiful Bill unscathed, the time is right for the carbon-free energy source to take center stage. With a positive policy environment and rapid advancements in technology, there’s only one critical hurdle in geothermal energy’s way – an exceedingly shallow talent pool. The geothermal revolution will need a whole lot of geologists – but a huge number…

The European Commission is considering pooling demand from European companies to collectively purchase more U.S. liquefied natural gas—part of an effort to meet its $750 billion energy trade deal with Washington.

A Commission spokesperson said a U.S.-focused version of the program could launch as early as September if enough interest emerges. “We are ready to…

The project consists of a floating natural gas liquefaction plant and marine export terminal located in the Douglas Channel near Kitimaat Village,…

There are signs that western measures and a domestic crackdown on Kyrgyzstan’s traditional banking sector are starting to bite, hindering Russian efforts to evade sanctions. Yet, booming transactions of a Kyrgyzstan-registered, ruble-linked cryptocurrency on a Kyrgyz exchange this spring indicate that sanctions-busters are still very active in the Central Asian nation. Russian entrepreneurs have complained in recent months that their transactions have grown more expensive or slowed after the United States and United Kingdom sanctioned a Kyrgyz…

Earlier this month, the U.S. Department of the Interior did something that just a couple of years ago would have been unthinkable. It permitted a coal mine in Tennessee. New coal mines are being approved around the world despite calls for a ban on the commodity. And this might yet intensify. Last year saw the slowest growth in global coal mine capacity since 2014, energy transition advocacy Global Energy Monitor reported earlier this week. Total new capacity that opened last year stood at 105 million tons, which was a 46% decline from the previous…

That agreement was something of a high-water mark of the Cold War detente, with 35 countries -- including the Soviet Union and United States -- agreeing on numerous principles after two years of talks known as the Conference on Security and Cooperation in Europe (CSCE). This would shape the geopolitical architecture of the wider European continent and laid the foundation for what became the Organization…

Low oil prices may be squeezing U.S. shale producers, but Interior Secretary Doug Burgum isn’t worried. In a new interview with The National’s Hadley Gamble, Burgum predicted that skyrocketing demand from the tech sector—particularly AI data centers—will be the next great engine of growth for the American energy industry. “The tech guys are becoming the biggest customers in the world for energy,” Burgum told Gamble during On the Record. “And it will only get bigger.” As chairman of President Trump’s…
