Scientists from the US, Norway, Russia, Germany, Italy and China are participating in a study examining the potential role of black carbon, or soot, on the rapidly changing Arctic climate. In addition to its impacts on snow and ice, black carbon is an air pollutant. The Arctic climate is changing faster than some scientists expected.

However, the resulting low gas prices, as well as clean air and climate policies, will promote further switching to gas from other more polluting energy sources, such as oil and coal. The development of an international hydrogen market could also accelerate adoption. —Jon Moore, CEO of BNEF. MMbtu in Russia, $8.7/MMbtu

The markets of France, Italy and Spain have exhibited different trends in 2024. With fewer petrol options available, and MHEVs closely aligned to internal-combustion engine ( ICE ) technology, it is logical that registrations of pure petrol would suffer.
