Uses molten-salt thermal storage, a 15 MW PPA and 2.5 MW PV; avoids ~6,500 tCO2/yr; >€18m investment and Spain's first large-scale heat-electrification project with storage.

Sales rose 13.2% to ¥2,037.1bn; core operating income jumped 60.9% to ¥202.8bn while net income fell 18.1% to ¥90.2bn. Full-year revenue and profit forecasts were raised.

CCS and carbon removal have moved to the centre of Norwegian climate debate; industry calls for long-term, predictable domestic support rather than budget-driven uncertainty.

Projects target low‑carbon iron feedstock, a 5 GW European solar cell and module factory, and biogenic CO₂-to-e‑methane systems, advancing to industrial-scale deployment.

Advances EU2 and EU3 ethane-cracker engineering with Linde; Borouge 4 adds 1.4 Mt polyethylene; Kallo PDH2 reaches mechanical completion; Burghausen and Schwechat projects progress.

Investment supports scaling of technology that injects captured CO2 into ultramafic rock to mineralize it as stable carbonate near industrial sites.

Evaluate manufacturing scale-up and commercialization of AEM water electrolysis to cut costs and enable flexible hydrogen production using lower‑cost, non‑critical materials.

Revenue rose 10% to €6,413m; acquisitions expanded presence in Northern Europe, Australia and Peru; Transformation Accelerator extended to target an additional €300m savings by end-2028.

Wood Mackenzie places Sines top in Iberia and top quartile in Europe; deep-conversion, Atlantic port and €650m green-hub investments shield it amid closure risks.

Industry investment and policy support sustain demonstrations across blast‑furnace retrofits, DRI–ESF, and electrochemical routes while economics and infrastructure shape deployment timing.
