Energy & Decarbonization

Join IDTechEx Technology Analyst Thomas Bithell on Thursday 16 July for the expert-led webinar, "Ammonia: Emerging Production Technologies and Applications". Choose your preferred time zone - the webinar runs three times in one day.

Dr Xiaoxi He discusses the value proposition of thin-film perovskite photovoltaics.

Green hydrogen is expected to play a critical role in decarbonizing hard-to-abate sectors that are difficult to electrify. IDTechEx forecasts the global green hydrogen market may reach US$166 billion by 2037, representing a CAGR of 48%.

Reducing carbon emissions is a globally recognised goal, with efforts to minimize carbon footprints now being seen across most major industries. Carbon capture, utilization, and storage (CCUS) is a process encompassing multiple innovations for reducing the effects of carbon on the environment.

Recent geopolitical tensions involving Iran have once again highlighted the vulnerability of global ammonia and fertilizer supply chains. According to IDTechEx's report, Ammonia Market 2026-2036: Technologies, Forecasts, Players, these developments are occurring as the ammonia industry undergoes transformation towards low-carbon production and applications.

Hydrogen has a reputation for being one of the main renewable energy sources of the future that can hopefully help reduce global CO2 emissions across sectors such as energy storage systems and transportation. This article covers green and blue hydrogen, and fuel cell applications.

The chemicals sector needs to decarbonize to reach net-zero by 2050 goals globally. In this article, IDTechEx discusses key technology innovations, production scales, and the business case for CO2-derived chemicals, based on the circular economy concept of carbon dioxide utilization.

Maintaining optimum operating temperatures for applications where overheating and thermal runaway might be a risk is the role of thermal management technologies, which can vary greatly in approach depending on application type. This article covers thermal management for BESS and EVs.

The global push toward decarbonization and renewable energy has kept next-generation solar technologies firmly in the spotlight. As analyzed in the newly released IDTechEx report "Perovskite Photovoltaics 2027-2037: Technologies, Markets & Trends", supported by government initiatives and surging private investments, perovskite photovoltaics (PV) remains one of the most intensely watched sectors in the energy transition.

The electric vehicle market has been steadily growing in recent years as part of global efforts to reduce harmful emissions and increase the overall sustainability of road transport. Demand for individual vehicle parts including battery cells and motors has therefore ramped up as a result.
