- High impact - Planting trees in Kenya offers the most cost-effective and fast solution to the climate crisis, significantly outperforming expensive tech alternatives like direct air capture (DAC) whilst offering co-benefits like biodiversity uplift, found a new study by Oxford University together with non-profit Word Forest. The analysis looked at 12 carbon removal technologies' implementation cost, deployment complexity, and carbon absorption capacity. Reforestation in Kenya was found to be low cost with immediate deployment possible, with trees there growing 10 times faster than in northern latitudes, absorbing about 0.25 tonnes of CO₂ within 5-7 years. The country currently has 10% canopy cost so has vast potential and businesses should invest there first before deciding which carbon removal tech option to bet on, they wrote.
- Thu 17:00Global sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) demand is set to reach around 2 million tonnes in 2025, but reliance on limited feedstocks could constrain growth beyond 2030 unless alternative production pathways are rapidly scaled, according to a market outlook released Thursday.
- Thu 16:57Risk concerns - Banks and investment managers in the UK are failing to show enough risk appetite to drive the low-carbon transition, said Ian Brown, head of banking and investments at the UK's National Wealth Fund. Brown said the wealth fund is assuming lots of risk to support the sector such as financing a gigafactory in Sunderland but that net zero will only happen with sufficient private financing. He stressed it's unfeasible to rely on the public purse alone to achieve such targets, and that institutional investors in particular are wary of taking construction risk despite managing large transition funds.

- Thu 02:30Critical year - The year 2025 could be a crucial year in China’s energy transition, but the progress will depend on whether the government continues to approve new coal power capacity, according to new research from Greenpeace East Asia. China approved 11.29 GW of new coal power capacity in Q1 2025, meaning total coal capacity approved during the current five-year plan period (2021-25) now stands at 289 GW, doubling the approved 145 GW during the previous period (2015-20). Both eastern and western provinces have accelerated approvals since 2021, placing China "at a critical crossroads", the non-profit said. Meanwhile, China’s installed capacity of wind and solar reached 1,482 GW by the end of March, surpassing that of thermal power for the first time. If the trend continues, renewables could meet all of China’s new electricity demand, putting the power sector on track to peak carbon emissions this year, according to Greenpeace. The non-profit said there is already enough existing capacity to meet today’s peak demand. Approving a new wave of large-scale coal projects risks creating overcapacity, stranded assets, and higher transition costs, it added.
