Startups will soon be ready to demonstrate how they make nuclear fusion work, but a lot of obstacles are in their way.
Could the end of the energy crisis be in sight?
"Creating a working star on Earth might sound flat-out impossible, had scientists not already gone so far toward doing it," The New York Times reported as multiple startups are looking to get fusion out of laboratories.
Fusion is the thermonuclear reaction that occurs in the core of stars, including the sun. But why all the hype around it?

How do Trump's fuel economy changes affect automakers?
Who are the winners from Trump's energy policies?
What are the environmental consequences of these changes?
What impact will this have on EV adoption?
Earlier in the year, President Trump signed legislation that effectively ended fuel economy penalties for automakers. The penalties applied to automakers for failing to meet Corporate Average Fuel Economy (CAFE) standards dating back to the 2022 model year. The measure was part of the "One Big Beautiful Bill Act," signed into law in July 2025. And now the president has pushed the envelop

A new study is flipping the script on how we think about renewable energy, and it is revealing a surprising flaw in the way a major industry is funded.
UK researchers Colm O'Shea, Piers Horne, and Mark Maslin found that wind power has delivered more than $132.4 billion in total savings for consumers since 2010. Besides the work wind power has done to clean up the UK's electricity grid, this is also a major win for families and the economy.
Plus, it is a reminder that clean energy is more than just an environmental upgrade.
From 2010 to 2023, wind generation cut costs by $195.2 billion, incl

If you're climate-conscious, you might be interested to know that conventional cement production accounts for a massive chunk of annual global carbon dioxide emissions. Concrete and cement have been the standard for building houses and skyscrapers for decades, but the energy required to produce cement, especially for firing limestone in kilns, results in a massive environmental impact. There's an alternative right under our noses, though. Researchers in Australia have introduced a new building option called cardboard-confined rammed earth, a material made from just soil, water, and recycled ca

A mild uptick in bitcoin mining in China has prompted calls for Beijing to loosen its restrictions and let the power-hungry industry tap into the country's oversupply of energy, but experts said the likelihood of China ending its mining ban was low.
China's bitcoin mining market share by hash rate rose from 13.75 per cent in the first quarter of 2025 to 14.06 per cent in the current quarter, making it the third largest bitcoin mining country behind the US and Russia, according to Hashrate Index, a data platform operated by US bitcoin mining firm Luxor Technology.

Ukraine's deep-strike drone campaign targeting Russia's oil and gas production facilities has already cost its enemy 10 percent of its refining capacity, according to industry experts -- and Kyiv is committed to stepping things up.
"Ten percent, it's not an astonishing number," says Tatiana Mitrova of Columbia University's Center on Global Energy Policy. "But it is still something that starts to be felt with the Russian domestic fuel crisis, with reduced oil refined products exports, and general tension inside the Russian oil sector."

Washington state has ambitious renewable energy goals. But as we transition away from fossil fuels, energy demand will increase as we electrify our lives and as energy-intensive industries proliferate.
This complicates our state’s path to decarbonization.
As part of the transition, solar energy in Washington could cover tens of thousands — possibly hundreds of thousands — of acres in the coming years.
Where all those solar panels go is a serious question.

Using fossil fuels to produce energy has had a detrimental impact on the planet. Despite pushes for cleaner energy, the power sector is still the top producer of harmful emissions according to the United Nations. As it becomes clear that human-driven climate change is making it harder for trees to breathe, it is fitting that a new proposed solution is inspired by the photosynthesis of plants.
A team of researchers at the University of Cambridge has developed artificial photosynthesis. The system mimics plants by using sunlight, water, and CO2 to create energy. The benefit of this system is th

(Reuters) -Bitcoin mining is quietly staging a comeback in China despite being banned four years ago, as individual and corporate miners exploit cheap electricity and a data center boom in some energy-rich provinces, according to miners and industry data.

On the slopes of an Oregon volcano, engineers are building the hottest geothermal power plant on Earth.
The plant will tap into the infernal energy of Newberry Volcano, “one of the largest and most hazardous active volcanoes in the United States,” according to the U.S. Geological Survey. It has already reached temperatures of 629 degrees Fahrenheit, making it one of the hottest geothermal sites in the world, and next year it will start selling electricity to nearby homes and businesses.

Fusion energy, the result of two lighter atoms coming together to form a heavier one, can release massive amounts of energy without harmful carbon pollution, making its potential widespread use a goal for many. Not only could its use eliminate reliance on dirty energy sources, but, in theory, it could provide humanity with virtually limitless, incredibly affordable, clean energy.
By diversifying clean energy sources with nuclear energy, like fusion, the atmosphere would contain fewer heat-trapping gases, which would cool the planet and lead to cleaner air and water, reducing pollution-related
