Russia reducing flows via Nord Stream, outages at Freeport and French nuclear downgrades have sent the European natural gas market into an upward spiral with more volatility still to come. And while summer consumption will be covered, analysts at Wood Mackenzie, a Verisk business (Nasdaq: VRSK) say storage refill is at risk unless additional demand and supply measures are taken.
Italian major Eni has, for the fourth time in seven years, been named the upstream industry’s most-admired explorer, an accolade awarded as part of Wood Mackenzie’s industry-leading annual Exploration Survey.
War in Ukraine is transforming the outlook for the supply, demand and price of hydrocarbons and the pace and cost of the energy transition. While the precise timing and implementation of future bans on Russian commodity imports are difficult to predict, a rewriting of energy trade flows is now underway.
The U.S. energy storage market set a new record in the first quarter of 2022, with grid-scale installations totalling 2,399 megawatt hours (MWh), the highest capacity for Q1 on record.
BP confirmed today that it picked up over 40% stake in the Asian Renewable Energy Hub project to produce and export green hydrogen in Australia.
While recycling can relieve some pressure from the supply deficit of battery raw materials, it will not be able to meet demand, says Wood Mackenzie.
Potential low-carbon (green or blue) hydrogen demand from the global refining sector could reach 50 million tonnes per annum (Mtpa) by 2050, says Wood Mackenzie.
US commercial solar project acquisitions continue to attract investor attention as interest in ESG investing grows. Today’s buyers and sellers of commercial solar projects are contending with the opposing dynamics of higher interest rates and increasing power prices. These findings come from the Commercial Solar PV Project Acquisition Trends report released today by Wood Mackenzie, a Verisk business (Nasdaq: VRSK), and Open Energy Group (OEG), a technology-driven marketplace for renewable energy asset sales and project finance.
The U.S. solar industry had its lowest quarter of installations since the start of the coronavirus pandemic, according to the U.S. Solar Market Insight report released today by the Solar Energy Industries Association (SEIA) and Wood Mackenzie, a Verisk business. In Q1 2022, price increases and supply chain constraints continued to suppress the solar market as the industry installed 24% less solar capacity than Q1 2021.
The REPowerEU initiative has the potential to add at least 420 gigawatts (GW) of solar installations by 2030; however, rising solar raw material costs could become the stumbling block to achieving this goal, says Wood Mackenzie.
Shell has sanctioned the development of the Crux gas field in Australia’s Bonaparte Basin.
Wood Mackenzie’s research indicates that UK North Sea oil and gas producers are making more profits than ever before, in an era where the industry is in progressive decline.
Cumulative global capex spend in the offshore wind sector is expected to hit US$1 trillion by 2031, according to a new report by Wood Mackenzie. However, investors will no longer only be competing on price alone.
While hydrogen can be used in many sectors, its derivative, ammonia, has emerged as a key tool to provide flexible power generation and integrate variable renewables. Analysis by Wood Mackenzie shows that a 10% ammonia co-firing in global coal plants would translate to 200 million tonnes (Mt) of ammonia demand, a potential market of US$100 billion by 2050.
Steel industry’s carbon emissions is expected to fall 30% by 2050 compared to 2021 levels, according to a new report by Wood Mackenzie.
Demand for long-term LNG contracts continues to gain momentum this year as large volumes have been signed and prices for oil-linked deals under negotiation are rising, according to a recently published LNG contract trends report by Wood Mackenzie.
Wood Mackenzie welcomes Canadian Solar as a development partner for its industry-leading Lens® decision intelligence platform, which delivers live data across the industrial landscapes of every global economy.
The recent run up in natural gas prices - hitting its highest at Henry Hub since 2008 - is a result of more muted market balancing mechanisms than in the past, say analysts from Wood Mackenzie, a Verisk business (Nasdaq: VRSK).
Five key lessons from today's energy crisis on how to manage the shift to lower-carbon sources while strengthening energy security
The race is on in the exploration and development of transition resources required for global decarbonisation. However, the investment environment needs to be more conducive, and the establishment of fair and transparent fiscal policies could be the key, says Wood Mackenzie.
Global economic growth could slow to 2.5% year-on-year in 2022 and 0.7% in 2023 due to the Russia-Ukraine war, says Wood Mackenzie.
High commodity prices and Russia's invasion of Ukraine have called into question the UK’s reliance on energy imports. In response, the UK government is set to unveil a new ‘energy security strategy’.
About 650,000 barrels per day (b/d) of Russian crude oil are to be relocated from advanced economies, and the solution could be ‘crude swapping’, says Wood Mackenzie.
Join executives from EDF Energy, Renewable Energy Institute and Société Générale as Europe’s energy sector gears up for critical transformation

Over the last year, strong demand recovery and a lack of investment in supply has caused prices to rise across sectors. Energy security and geopolitical tensions have added unprecedented uncertainty to markets across the globe. On top of that, countries and corporations still bear the massive challenge of limiting global warming to 1.5 ˚C.
Global cumulative lithium-ion battery capacity could rise over five-fold to 5,500 gigawatt-hour (GWh) between 2021 and 2030, says Wood Mackenzie.
The latest sanctions by the Australian government in banning exports of alumina and bauxite to Russia adds further disruption to UC Rusal’s supply chain and ultimately on its ability to maintain normal primary aluminium production levels.
