As per the memorandum signed with Governor Camilo Santana, Enegix will create the world’s largest green hydrogen plant, which will produce more than 600 thousand tons of green hydrogen per year from 3.4 GW of firm power – the maximum continuous production of energy that can be obtained – from combined wind and solar projects.

The Australian Base One project in the Northeast will be in a strategic location for green hydrogen production with direct access to all major international markets via ocean freight.

According to a company statement, Base One will create thousands of jobs during construction and will employ hundreds of full-time operational staff to manage its facilities, with positive and far-reaching social benefits for the local community and the state as well.

The new plant will have the potential to reduce annual CO2 emissions by 10 million tons per year and will become the largest carbon emissions reduction project in the world.

The expectation is that the Base One project will take 3 years to be completed. Enegix signed an agreement with an international engineering and consulting firm to conduct a feasibility study and will soon begin the process of obtaining environmental and social licenses. Enegix is seeking partnerships with investors and is conducting a public capital raise.

The Base One project in the Northeast also marks Enegix’s debut in the global market. Enegix Energy is registered in Singapore and Australia and will set up its corporate headquarters in the European country, Switzerland. The company was established with the vision to implement and manage renewable energy networks powered by hydrogen, which is a key component of its strategy and will be used for storage, electricity distribution, transportation, fuel applications, and also re-electrification plants.

With billions in loans, China is rebuilding Nigeria’s railway network from scratch, abandoning the British colonial tracks that have turned to scrap and creating a corridor of over 1,300 km to take the load off the roads of Africa’s largest economy.

China is building an artificial island in the middle of the sea, covering 20 km², to construct the largest offshore airport in the world, the Dalian Jinzhouwan. This $4.3 billion project is anchored on more than 3,000 pillars embedded in the rock beneath the ocean and is scheduled to open in 2035.

Forget petroleum-based asphalt: a Scottish company transforms 684,000 plastic bottles into one kilometer of road that is 60% more resistant and up to 10 times more durable, and the technology has already started replacing traditional asphalt in more than 30 countries.

A British company has installed in the middle of the ocean the world’s first floating platform that generates electricity 24 hours a day from the temperature difference between the surface and the depths of the Atlantic, without relying on wind or sun.

Austrian engineers have developed an inflatable concrete technology that transforms flat slabs into domes using only air pressure, eliminating scaffolding and temporary forms, and potentially changing the way bridges, tunnels, and curved roofs are constructed worldwide.

A robot named Walter does the work of five bricklayers per hour and can save the construction industry, where the average age of professionals is 46 years and almost no one wants to learn the trade anymore, in the United Kingdom.

The James Webb telescope spotted a planet 700 light-years from Earth with mornings full of sand clouds and nights with clear skies, the temperature difference between the two hemispheres reaches an impressive 170 degrees.

Rice in space becomes a scientific bet for China to understand how microgravity can alter the genetics of the most important grain for Asian food security and reveal if future generations of the plant can be born, grow, and maintain their biological identity away from Earth.

Windows without a prison-like appearance gain momentum in 2026 and promise to completely transform residential facades with more natural lighting, discreet security, increased property value, and a modern look without the burden of the old iron bars that dominated Brazilian homes for decades.

The largest precious metals mine under construction in the world is situated on a layer of ore 25 times thicker than common mines in South Africa, and has just connected a third shaft that will quintuple the extraction of platinum, palladium, and gold.
