Clean energy standards have boosted renewables and EVs—can they do the same for heating?
We think so. Our new paper shows how Clean Heat Standards can drive more clean heat across Europe & explains how to make them work.

China's surging NEV sales: nothing new, but astonishing nonetheless. Each year since 2020, NEV production and sales have outpaced the industry's own forecasts. Over 50% new vehicle sales share for much of 2H 2024, and forecasted to reach 55% for full-year 2025. (CAAM data)
