Solar, wind, storage, hydrogen, and the policy landscape driving the global energy transition. Coverage of the projects, the capital, and the politics reshaping power generation.
Edited by the Stake & Paper Editorial Team — 190 stories in the archive, updated daily.
Subscribe to RenewablesSolar and wind capacity continue to expand globally, driven by falling costs, federal and state policy incentives, and growing corporate procurement. Our renewables coverage tracks utility-scale project development, battery storage deployment, hydrogen pilot programs, and the grid modernization investments required to integrate variable generation at scale. This section covers the capital, the technology, and the regulatory landscape shaping clean energy.

ArcPy scripting techniques—including the arcpy.da cursor module, batch geoprocessing loops, and enterprise system integration—let energy companies automate the mapping and analysis of pipelines, grids, and renewable sites at scale.
Glencore emerges as the wildcard in Anglo American and Teck's $1.4 billion Chilean copper synergy plan, while Smackover Lithium locks in a decade-long supply deal with LG Energy Solution and Defense Metals sharpens its rare earth resource in British Columbia.
This week in energy: Iran war fallout sent VLCC tanker rates toward $650,000 a day, Venezuela began weighing an OPEC exit that would follow the UAE's, and Brent crude reclaimed $90 as gold notched its best month since January. Key developments across oil, gas, renewables, and mining sectors.
Every unpatented mining claim across all twelve BLM states. Leadfile audits, due diligence, site selection, regional prospecting, entity investigations, and AOI monitoring — delivered as complete report packages.
Clean-energy capital is splitting in two: money is flooding into uranium and fusion to feed AI's power habit, while solar cools off despite a war-driven push for energy independence.
Clean energy capital spending is racing toward a record $180 billion this year, even as Washington strips away the subsidies that were supposed to make it happen.
This week in energy: Brent crude surged toward $100 a barrel as Hormuz attacks disrupted tanker traffic, Alaska's $50 billion LNG pipeline bill collapsed in the state legislature, and Boralex went private in a $6.5 billion Brookfield-led buyout. Key developments across oil, gas, renewables, and mining sectors.
This week in energy: Iran's parliament advances a plan to restrict Hormuz shipping as ADNOC reports 15 vessel attacks, Libya targets 2 million bpd oil output by the early 2030s, and gold surges to a seven-week high after a shockingly weak US jobs report. Key developments across oil, gas, renewables, and mining sectors.
Canberra will slash commercial solar costs by 20% while forcing data centers to fund their own renewable power—a dual push that could unlock 80 GW of untapped capacity.
Europe's energy storage capacity just overtook its nuclear fleet, yet the continent still wastes renewable power at scale. Meanwhile, Finland proves thermal batteries work—and California wants to beam sunlight from space.
Traditional producers, exploration stocks, metals miners, and clean energy names moved higher in tandem as the energy complex reversed recent fragmentation.
Weekly energy market recap covering oil, gas, renewables, and mining sectors.
The energy complex fractured along operational lines as independent explorers rallied against a backdrop of declining supermajors and continued weakness across renewable technology sectors.
India curtailed enough solar power in Q2 to run 1.4 million homes—because its grid can't absorb what its panels produce. The bottleneck is global.
The energy complex fractured along structural lines as integrated producers and copper held firm while exploration, uranium, renewables, and precious metals miners retreated sharply.
Beijing pours billions into renewables while Western majors sell solar assets and Brussels blinks on methane rules. The clean energy map is being redrawn.
This week in energy: Oil prices surged past $100/barrel as dual blockades of the Strait of Hormuz and Red Sea tightened global supply, while solar power achieved a historic milestone in the US electricity mix. Key developments across oil, gas, renewables, and mining sectors.
