Gulf countries attending the ADIPEC conference in October made it clear that oil and gas will be needed for decades to come, and the region has the least carbon-intensive barrels to fuel a global economy seeking to lower its emissions. How does this play against the United Nations' assertion that new hydrocarbon investments are incompatible with credible net-zero targets? S&P Global Commodity Insights news editors Dania El Saadi and Henry Edwardes-Evans compare notes. Click here to explore Platts Dimensions Pro Click here to interact with our Hydrogen Price Wall

Climate change and the global energy crisis are making nuclear power attractive again to countries and utilities that were once eager to reduce or eliminate reactors. But whether the uranium mining sector sees sufficient price signals to expand production remains to be seen. And many cost and execution issues facing new nuclear construction are not resolved. In this episode, S&P Global Commodity Insights reporters Abbie Bennett, Camellia Moors and Kip Keen discuss these developments as part of their 3-part series on nuclear power.

Plug Power, one of the leading green hydrogen companies in the US, has put a lot of investment and attention in the European green hydrogen market over the years. But its attention is now expected to shift back to the US side of its business following the passage of the Inflation Reduction Act and its generous hydrogen tax credits. There's broad consensus that the IRA makes US green hydrogen far more competitive than before, but can it now outcompete EU hydrogen? Plug Power CEO Andy Marsh joins S&P Global Commodity Insights reporter Brandon Mulder to share his insights on the IRA and what it means for the US market. Then SPGCI hydrogen analyst Brian Murphy and pricing reporter Santiago Canel share their thoughts about the US's green hydrogen export potential.

With geopolitical and economic pressures altering the context dramatically since the last meeting in Glasgow, S&P Global Commodity Insights tackles the most pressing questions ahead of this global climate gathering. Vandana Sebastian speaks to Roman Kramarchuk and Dan Klein on what to expect at COP27, whether countries can reach a consensus on climate goals, the significance of decarbonization in a world of evolving energy priorities, and the relevance of COP27 amid the global energy crisis.

The Inflation Reduction Act contains many provisions aimed at accelerating the development of clean power. In this episode we talk about one, in particular: the new law's so-called direct pay provision, which is expected to help municipal utilities, electric cooperatives and other public, tax exempt utilities to tap federal clean energy incentives. To talk about it, we're joined by Nick Chaset, CEO of East Bay Community Energy, a community choice aggregator in California.

Australia has accelerated its climate ambitions with a new commitment to cut emissions by 43% by 2030, which translates into having about 82% renewable power in its energy mix. Alongside that, the 2019 National Hydrogen Strategy aims to position the country as a top global exporter of the energy carrier. Demonstrations, pilot projects and hubs are being developed around the country, such as the first international pilot to export hydrogen. In this episode of the Platts Future Energy podcast, Ruchira Singh discusses the contours of the Australian government's climate policy measures, and the considerations around hydrogen for the nation's decarbonization journey with Mendo Kundevski, Ankit Sachan and Anton Ferkov.
