In 2015, India and Pakistan experienced heatwave conditions that ended up killing over 3,600 people in just three months. Now, research suggests this could become the new normal.

Europe must not repeat the same mistakes it made with solar manufacturing in the emerging hydrogen sector, the executive director of the International Energy Agency (IEA) has warned. A string of European research institutes and pioneering companies developed much of the technology still in use in PV panels today. But as solar began to scale in multiple international markets, coordinated national and regional support allowed Chinese manufacturers to get the upper hand over their rivals. Support in the forms of cheap land and warehouse facilities, as well as feed-in tariffs, helped companies like…
