Brazil Leads Global Push to Quadruple Clean Fuel Production by 2035 at COP30
Brazil is collaborating with Japan to secure international support for quadrupling sustainable fuel production by 2035. The initiative will debut at November’s COP30 summit in Belém, with India and Italy already signaling participation in the clean energy effort.
Brazil is spearheading an ambitious global initiative to quadruple sustainable fuel production by 2035 through a partnership with Japan, positioning the clean energy commitment as a centerpiece of the upcoming COP30 climate summit. The South American nation aims to unveil the formal pledge during the world leaders summit in Belém on November 6-7, according to sources familiar with the negotiations who requested anonymity to discuss private details.

IEA Decline Rate Report Misinterpretations: What the Data Really Shows
Recent IEA analysis shows oil production decline rates have increased significantly since 2010. However, many industry observers are misreading the implications for future oil supply and prices. Understanding the context is crucial for accurate interpretation.
The International Energy Agency’s latest decline rate report has sparked widespread discussion and misinterpretation across energy sectors, with many observers drawing premature conclusions about peak oil production and impending price spikes. According to the analysis, the amount of oil production that needs replacement annually has grown dramatically from 3.9 million barrels per day in 2010 to 5.5 million barrels per day currently. As IEA Executive Director Fatih Birol noted, this means “the industry has to run much faster just to stand still,” with oil and gas groups spending approximately $500 billion annually merely to maintain current production levels against natural field depletion.

Orsted Announces Major Workforce Reduction of 2,000 Jobs in Strategic Restructuring
Danish renewable energy giant Orsted is eliminating 2,000 positions, representing a quarter of its global workforce. The cuts are part of a strategic shift toward European offshore wind markets and select Asia-Pacific regions. The company expects to realize approximately $311.5 million in annual cost savings by 2028.
Orsted, the Danish renewable-energy leader, will slash approximately 2,000 jobs over the coming years as part of a major strategic restructuring. The workforce reduction represents about a quarter of the company’s global employees and comes alongside plans to scale back its international footprint to concentrate on core markets. This dramatic cost-cutting initiative aims to save around $311.5 million annually by 2028, when efficiency measures become fully implemented.
