Blended finance combines public and private capital to fund climate projects that would otherwise be too risky, but despite its promise, many projects still struggle to reach successful implementation due to structural, policy and market barriers.

Data centre energy consumption is accelerating faster than renewables can keep up. From the 415 terawatt hours already being consumed annually, to water shortages in small American towns, to Big Tech's nuclear pivot, this piece maps the full environmental cost of the AI infrastructure boom and asks who is really paying for it.

AI's data centre boom is reshaping energy demand. Discover how it impacts industrial decarbonisation, grid capacity and climate finance.

Artificial intelligence may feel weightless, but every AI query relies on vast physical infrastructure consuming enormous amounts of electricity. Here’s how much energy ChatGPT actually uses, why AI workloads demand so much power, and what the rapid growth of AI data centres means for the future of global energy systems.

I’ve tested and researched the top solar charge controllers in 2026. In this guide, I share my picks, key features to look for, and tips for off-grid, RV, and home solar systems.

All in one solar charge controllers combine an inverter, charge controller, and battery management system into a single unit, making solar setups simpler, more efficient, and easier to install. This guide compares the best models in 2026 to help you choose the right system for off-grid, RV, or home energy use.
