Asia’s development potential as a biofuels production resource continues to grow, driven by ambitious energy transition objectives and equally bold net zero targets.
While hugely diverse and progressive, however, the region could never be termed a risk-free, or even low-risk, investment environment.
There is, nevertheless, much to recommend it as a focus for advancing... [Read More]

Europe’s transport emissions remain stubbornly high. Efficiency gains from vehicle hybridisation help – and while fully electric vehicle sales are growing – they remain a very minor fraction of the EU’s overall passenger vehicle fleet. Every year spent waiting for future solutions locks in millions of tonnes of greenhouse gases (GHGs) unnecessarily.
Additionally,... [Read More]
