Part I The energy transition and the development of new energy technologies are fundamentally reshaping the energy mix. Increased production of green hydrogen, decarbonization of the transport sector and power supply for electric vehicle batteries and hydrogen fuel cells will require clean energy sources.

Although the world has clearly ceased to be unipolar, the United States is striving to maintain its instruments of control. Moreover, if earlier it was in a veiled form (the concept of global leadership and multilateralism under Barack Obama), then Donald Trump decided to act aggressively, causing a serious resonance […]
