Brits are being urged to work from home and use ovens less as the energy crisis deepens, amid worries that Rachel Reeves can’t help because she’s “maxxed out the nation’s credit card” with “runaway welfare spending”.

The crisis also showcases America’s capacity to support allies and the poor. Long‑term LNG contracts with Asian and European partners, coupled with support for reasonable financing of oil and gas projects in developing...

Households are already £800 worse off a year as a result of Net Zero policies on electricity costs, whether directly via energy bills or indirectly via higher taxes and prices...

While in 1990 one-third of Europe’s energy came from nuclear, today it’s only close to 15%. This reduction in the share of nuclear was a choice. And in hindsight, it was as strategic mistake for Europe to turn its back...

Here in the U.S., the second Trump administration has largely pulled the plug on the suite of crazy energy policies marching under the banner of “fighting climate change.” But the same is not true in many other advanced-economy...

There has been little decarbonisation since 2020. Aging, increasingly unreliable coal fired power stations are still the backbone of the electricity supply. The price of energy is inexorably rising.  Australian governments,...

Reaching 2050 target could exceed even highest official predictions of £7.6tn amid ‘faulty assumptions’
