About us
As the urgency and complexity of the clean energy transition deepens, Cipher brings readers expert reporting and analysis on critical climate solutions, including the latest developments, trends and most important areas of focus. Cipher means zero, which reflects our simple, but hard, goal: helping accelerate understanding of the technologies we need to achieve net-zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2050. Cipher also means code. We decode complex topics and make them clear to people at all levels working to address climate change — and anyone who wants to be an informed, concerned citizen. We take a global perspective to this incredibly interconnected issue, with a growing team of veteran climate and energy reporters based in the United States, Belgium, and the United Arab Emirates.

Earlier this year, Hysata CEO Paul Barrett and Senior Global Correspondent of Cipher News, Bill Spindle met at Hysata’s beach-front manufacturing facility in Port Kembla. During the visit, Paul and Bill discussed the Australian hydrogen market, Port Kembla’s history in iron and steel, and Hysata’s role in decarbonising these industries. Australia exports nearly 900 million tonnes of iron ore per year, responsible for around 1,600 million tonnes of Scope 3 emissions as its converted to steel every year. This is almost 11 times the emissions from our electricity generation, and 4 times Australia’s total domestic emissions. It’s important we eliminate these exported emissions and capture the economic opportunity by using green hydrogen to manufacture green iron on our shores. In Bill’s recent story, he covers Hysata, the development of the Australian hydrogen market, and his reflections on the opportunity Australia has in our iron ore and hydrogen industry.

More than two-thirds of the 15 states projected to see the most jobs from new clean-energy projects announced since the Inflation Reduction Act was signed into law in 2022 are politically conservative and battleground states. That's according to employment data collected by E2, a nonpartisan, nonprofit organization focused on the environment and economy, and political tilt of states assessed by The Cook Political Report with Amy Walter, as of September 3, 2024.

One of the most fascinating stories I have done any amount of reporting on is geoengineering. I can't wait for this conversation on solar geoengineering with some of the absolute best of the best in the field: David Keith at the University of Chicago, Ryan Orbuch at Lowercarbon Capital and Janos Pasztor, formerly of the United Nations and Carnegie Climate Governance Initiative. I am leading the conversation on behalf of Cipher News. Thank you SOSV for hosting. Agenda and registration here: https://lnkd.in/ekMwXJiG

Cipher reader and executive editor-in-chief of the Clean Energy journal Constance Senior snapped this photo of a solar array on top of a lobster co-op in Little Cranberry Island, Maine. She wondered how well the array was coping with all the gulls and bird poop! Each week, we feature a photo that is somehow related to energy, the thing we all need but don’t notice until it’s expensive or gone. Email your ideas and photos to news@ciphernews.com.

India's clean-energy goals are getting caught up in a supply-chain crisis prompted by geopolitical tension with its northern neighbor, China. The story centers on transformers, machines that adjust electricity voltages, and offers lessons for how the global energy transition writ large is intricately affected by geopolitics, economics and extreme weather.

State politics have had a huge impact on clean energy efforts in the swing states of Michigan, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin. It shows just how much the presidential election matters for the energy transition, as Kamala Harris and Donald Trump have differing views on climate change and fossil fuels. Bill Spindle, Amena H. Saiyid and Cat Clifford have more on clean energy in these three key states:
Here’s how cleantech stacks up in three swing states

MUMBAI, India — This nation’s clean-energy goals are getting caught up in a supply-chain crisis prompted by tension with its northern neighbor — and fellow global superpower — China. This story -- by Anuradha Varanasi -- centers on transformers, machines that adjust electricity voltages, but it offers lessons for how the global energy transition writ large is intricately affected by geopolitics, economics and even extreme weather.
