Tourists can experience Athabasca Glacier in this first-ever ELECTRIC Ice Explorer [video]

Athabasca Glacier Gets an Electric Ice Explorer for Tourist Trips

The vehicle is described as the first electric Ice Explorer.
It is built to carry up to 52 guests on Athabasca Glacier.
The project tests electrification in a cold, heavy-duty off-road tourism use case.

Electricity and recycled waste cement can be used to produce the belite that’s often utilized in massive structures such as dams

Researchers say electricity could sharply cut cement’s carbon footprint

A UBC team says electricity can lower the heat burden in cement production.
The method can also use recycled cement and concrete.
The work targets a sector responsible for a major share of industrial CO2 emissions.

Hydrogen From Rocks Could Pair Clean Fuel Production With CO2 Storage

Researchers say a common rock type can generate hydrogen while storing CO2 in lab studies.
The concept could potentially combine hydrogen production, carbon sequestration, and geothermal energy.
Field trials are the next step, and economic viability remains unproven.

Inside Sardinia’s Fierce Fight Over Renewable Energy

Sardinia’s renewable energy fight shows how mistrust can stall decarbonization

A grassroots campaign in Sardinia gathered more than 210,000 certified signatures against new wind and solar projects.
The pressure helped produce an 18-month moratorium on renewable-energy construction.
The conflict shows how distrust of outsiders can stall decarbonization even where renewable deployment is technically viable.

735 Electric Buses Coming To Dubai Soon - CleanTechnica

Dubai orders 735 electric buses as it accelerates a zero-emissions transit push

Dubai’s transport authority says 735 electric buses will be delivered during 2026.
The emirate currently operates about 40 electric buses and is targeting zero-emissions public transport by 2050.
At 470 kWh per bus, the eventual fleet would represent a large distributed battery resource.

Nuclear Scaling Requires Discipline. SMRs Deliver Fragmentation - CleanTechnica

SMR Boom Meets a Hard Constraint: Too Many Designs, Too Little Standardization

The source argues SMRs only make economic sense if the industry converges on a few designs and builds them repeatedly.
The OECD NEA dashboard has tracked more than 120 SMR technologies worldwide, underscoring continued fragmentation.
The central critique is industrial rather than scientific: without standardization, factory production cannot deliver the expected learning curve.

Driving A Car On HVO Is 79% More Expensive Than An Electric Car — New Analysis - CleanTechnica

Europe’s Biofuel Detour Looks Costlier Than Battery-Electric Driving

Transport & Environment says charging an EV averages €7 per 100 km in the EU, versus €13 for pure HVO.
The group argues advanced biofuels for passenger cars would cost drivers more while slowing electrification.
Competition from aviation for limited advanced biofuel supply could make road-fuel economics worse.

The Hydrogen Stream: Levelized cost of hydrogen at Mediterranean ports can be as low as €2.5/kg for hybrid systems

Mediterranean Port Study Suggests Hybrid Hydrogen Could Reach €2.5 per Kilogram in the Right Conditions

A new study modeled hydrogen production costs at Mediterranean ports under renewable and hybrid setups.
Fully renewable systems were estimated at €5.7 to €8.6 per kilogram, while hybrid systems ranged from €2.5 to €13.
Solar was the most consistent resource across the analyzed ports, though wind excelled in some locations.

Chatgpt generated policy-focused landscape showing engineers, regulators, and household infrastructure

Hydrogen Heating Trial in Scotland Reopens the Cost and Policy Debate

The H100 Fife project is presented as the UK’s first end-to-end hydrogen system for homes.
The source text argues the project’s economics are weak even before operating costs are counted.
Critics say the trial risks prolonging the gas distribution model rather than delivering scalable decarbonization.

California approved a gas pipeline solution. Now comes the hard part.

California’s gas-pipeline transition law now faces its hardest test

SB 1221 created pilot decarbonization zones for pipeline retirement and electrification.
California gas utilities are projected to spend about $43 billion on pipeline replacements by 2045.
The CPUC has identified 151 candidate zones, but implementation remains contested.

No Kings III

Climate Protest Coverage Is Crowding Out Harder Energy Transitions Stories

A CleanTechnica protest story linked democracy concerns with climate backsliding and fossil-fuel influence.
The article cited low Arctic sea ice and criticism of misleading climate claims.
The episode shows how climate coverage can center protest more easily than transition mechanics.

DNV Report Finds Hydrogen Ships Face Major Safety Cost Hurdles

DNV's EMSA-commissioned study finds hydrogen shipping requires fundamental vessel redesign, not just fuel system swaps
Hydrogen's wide flammability range (4–75% in air) and molecular permeation demand costly containment and ventilation systems
Short-sea ferries and harbor vessels remain better candidates for hydrogen than deep-sea cargo ships
