This explainer by the German Heinrich Böll Foundation provides a quick overview of green hydrogen, the way it is produced, the role it can play in the energy transition, and the main challenges.
Wind farms tend to be large projects built in relatively remote areas, and in the past, they have often generated more disturbance than benefits for local communities. This World Bank report discusses models that allow host communities of wind energy projects to benefit more from those projects.
Institutions all over the world are setting up microcredentials in responses to calls from governments and industry: short courses, usually offered online by accredited institutions, with an emphasis on the needs of the workplace.
