OPEC does not have the additional spare capacity to lift crude oil production much more than it is doing today, Nigeria’s Petroleum Minister Timipre Sylva told Anadolu Agency on Friday. “It is not something that you can open a tap for at this point.

The world needs to rapidly accelerate its transition away from coal and other fossil fuels to avoid extreme climate change, according to a report by the U.N. climate science panel. The report justifies the growing concern among scientists, activists and governments that promises to slash greenhouse gas emissions so far are inadequate to keep global temperatures from rising more than 1.5 or 2 degrees Celsius – the level at which researchers say climate change risks spinning out of control....

Wind and solar are the fastest-growing sources of electricity and accounted for a tenth of global electricity production in 2021....

An electric Porsche 911 powered by solid-state batteries is in the works, according to a recent report from German publication Manager Magazin (via Ecomento). While the electric sports car will reportedly appear in some form later this decade, it's unclear whether this is a one-off experiment or something genuinely being prepared under research and development—or product development—channels. We do know that Porsche parent Volkswagen has been longtime investor in solid-state battery firm QuantumScape, though....
