Anion Exchange Membrane Electrolyzers (AEMEL) combines the cost advantages of alkaline electrolysis with the operational flexibility of PEMEL, but limited system lifetime remains the key barrier to commercialization. This article explores AEMEL's technological advantages, key development challenges, and its potential role in the future green hydrogen market.

Decarbonization is becoming an increasingly prevalent goal across any major sectors globally to lower carbon footprints, with many sustainable practices and innovations now being introduced. This article covers decarbonization developments for data centers and electronics.

Hydrogen is one natural gas that is proving to be a great source of renewable energy as far as decarbonization goals are concerned. Fuel cell vehicles, stationary fuel cells, and green hydrogen production are amongst the areas covered in IDTechEx's portfolio of Hydrogen Research Reports and Subscriptions.

The solar energy landscape is undergoing a significant transformation. Rather than simply trying to replace incumbent silicon panels on standard metrics, perovskite photovoltaics are carving out entirely new markets by offering fundamentally differentiated value.

IDTechEx finds that the green hydrogen production market will reach $166Bn by 2037.

The landscape of transportation looks vastly different today than it did two decades ago. The introduction of electric vehicles and autonomous vehicles is not only having positive environmental impacts as combustion engines gradually fade out, but passenger safety has never been such a high priority.

IDTechEx's portfolio of Advanced Materials & Critical Minerals Research Reports is one of its most diverse, covering the latest developments across many advanced materials including conductive inks, graphene, and more.

The battery sector is rapidly growing in multiple directions, with battery storage technologies expected to be responsible for powering many major sectors including data centers and 6G power stations, and solid-state batteries gaining increasing amounts of attention for their safer chemistries.

Ammonia is the world's 2nd most produced chemical, and 80% of it is currently used to produce fertilizers. Ammonia is produced from hydrogen and nitrogen. Conventionally, the hydrogen is sourced from natural gas, tying its production to price volatility and geopolitical supply risks as has been seen at the Straight of Hormuz. Decoupling ammonia production from natural gas is occurring via green ammonia production, which uses the electrolysis of water as a hydrogen feedstock.

Innovations in renewable energy have never been so prevalent, with global decarbonization goals pushing for developments in ways to generate power that have no harmful or long-lasting environmental impacts.

By 2027, two first-of-a-kind SAF plants will be operational in the US. Developments in policy and energy prices will dictate their competitiveness on the domestic market, with the strengths and weaknesses of each pathway being discussed in this IDTechEx article.

The Packaging and Packaging Waste Regulation 2025/40 (PPWR) will begin rolling out from August 2026, introducing stricter requirements for packaging recyclability, recycled content, transparency, and producer responsibility across the EU. Chemical recycling is expected to play an important role in helping companies comply with these rules by enabling difficult-to-recycle materials, such as multilayer packaging and mixed plastic waste, to be processed into valuable recycled feedstocks. The regulation also establishes ambitious recycled-content targets through 2040, strengthening the case for mass balance accounting approaches that support chemically recycled materials. IDTechEx believes these regulatory changes are likely to be a major driver for the growth and adoption of chemical recycling technologies in the coming decade.

The production capacity for low-carbon ammonia will grow to 56.5 million tonnes in 2036.

As part of the device miniaturization trend happening worldwide, consumer electronics are becoming increasingly streamlined, with conductive inks, flexible batteries, and other technologies making this possible.

Electric vehicles are continuing to play a vital role in decarbonizing the transport industry as they help with the shift away from fossil fuel reliance with their utilization of battery technologies. This article covers micro EVs, materials, and thermal management.

The demand for products and services with more sustainable credibility is driving innovations across materials sectors, including gas separation membranes, composite materials for green energy, and next-generation feedstocks.

In this article, IDTechEx explores the complex regional landscape of the nuclear small modular reactor (SMR) market, and how early deployments from China and Russia's state-owned organizations in deploying SMRs compare to the private nuclear industries of Europe and North America.
