The New Carbon Order, IETA.
Carbon markets have evolved from pilot policies to central policy, but we see a patchwork of systems: compliance markets supported by national and regional policies; voluntary markets that continue to innovate and adapt; and emerging mechanisms under Article 6. The challenge and opportunity lies in bringing these threads together into something coherent.

The European geothermal strategy and its action plan. European Geothermal Energy Council.
Geothermal energy is the least land-intensive and cost-effective source of energy storage. However, it currently brings only a fraction of its potential, although the IEA forecasts that geothermal energy capacity will double globally in the coming years everywhere except Europe, which would have dire consequences for European energy security, competitiveness and socio-economic prosperity.

Decarbonisation of Spanish industry
Spain has a competitive electricity mix and a favourable European context for carbon pricing, which leads to an opportunity for industrial decarbonisation. There is also a not insignificant amount of public funds allocated for this type of project. Thus, it is plausible that Spain could have around 1,000 million euros of public funds for projects […]
Statement on the Transposition of the CSRD Directive and successive amendments to the Spanish Legal System
