  1. A tropical tax paradise sells much of Australia's gas
    By Daniel Mercer and Neil Chenoweth

    Amid renewed debate over whether Australia is getting enough tax from its gas exports, an investigation by the ABC shows how resource giants use shell companies to shift profit.

  2. The GOP reconciliation bill kills clean energy tax credits. Two bipartisan bills would restore them — contact your member of Congress now and tell them to get on board. climateactionnow.com/daily-dos #CleanEnergy #EnergyPolicy Please share.

  4. Leakage

    Measuring and fixing methane leaks isn't rocket science. The technology and standards are known. The EU methane law asked only for the obvious: measure, document, reduce.

    Now penalties are to be quietly suspended via internal guidelines – no parliament, no vote – during "supply crises".

    Under pressure from the US and the fossil fuel industry.

    "Energy security" as a blank cheque for inaction.

  6. Brent crude above $100. $WTI near $97. The Strait of Hormuz is doing what geography always does—imposing its logic on global markets. 🛢️

    Iran-linked maritime disruptions have triggered the IEA's largest-ever coordinated reserve release (400M barrels), yet prices remain elevated. A deep look at what's driving the repricing:

  7. The Iran conflict isn't just a geopolitical story—it's reshaping energy markets through specific, traceable channels: record fuel price spikes (Canada saw a 21.2% monthly surge), India creating a sovereign-backed maritime insurance pool, and major banks caught in sanctions-evasion allegations.

    The IEA calls it historically significant. Here's how the transmission vectors work:

  9. #AI making now and later more difficult. Auto-completion of our raison d'être seems to involve some serious trade-offs.

    The authors offer some suggestions but as with much good advice delivered by informed experts, the chances of it surviving the political process are akin to dropping a 17-jewel watch into a rock crusher and expecting it to tell the time.

    "Results indicate that while AI training compute has increased by several orders of magnitude since 2012, renewable energy capacity has grown at slower rates of 10–20% per year. Efficiency improvements of 25–35% annually reduce energy per operation but do not prevent total energy consumption from rising due to scale effects. Practical renewable power densities remain limited to 1–10 W/m2, and intermittency combined with storage losses of 10–15% constrains reliable supply for AI workloads requiring over 99.9% uptime. These findings reveal a structural mismatch between exponential AI growth and bounded renewable energy systems, indicating that sustainable AI development requires energy-aware system design (e.g., efficiency-optimized architectures and workload scheduling), demand-side constraints (e.g., limits on model scale and training frequency), and governance mechanisms (e.g., energy-informed standards and infrastructure planning) aligned with physical limits."
