Across the arc of history, islands have played the role of a testbed for the world’s most innovative ideas. Charles Darwin famously studied the ecological niches occupied by a diverse array of finch species on the Galapagos islands, inspiring him to develop the theory of evolution. While their small scale and distance from the mainland made for a perfect model …
As the aviation industry seeks to decarbonise, Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) is the most crucial lever to reduce the sector’s carbon footprint. SAF, which is derived from sustainable sources, offers a promising alternative to conventional jet fuel and aligns with global efforts to combat climate change. Technip Energies, an expert in the sustainable fuels domain and a leading player across …
Build Ahead has investigated urban housing challenges in India, explored the carbon emissions associated with the built environment, and proposed a framework for carbon labelling of construction materials. Our research shows that by 2047, the majority of India’s population is expected to live in urban centres, necessitating large volumes of new construction. With the built environment contributing close to 39% …
In the evolving landscape of European procurement and supply chain logistics, electric mobility is revolutionising how consumer goods companies execute last-mile delivery of their products. Once considered a niche alternative to traditional transportation, electric cargo vehicles are now central to the strategic planning of large companies and offer a range of benefits from cost savings to sustainability. Here is a …
World Environment Day should remind us to reflect on our practices, re-orient if off course, and renew our commitment to a people- and planet-positive world. As we navigate the complexities of a changing climate, it’s crucial we recognise that we, and our businesses, exist within a living system. At a time of increasingly devastating weather events, this year’s theme, “Land …

The quest for alternatives to conventional plastics has garnered substantial global momentum in recent years, driving advancements in the field of bioplastics. As global concerns about climate change intensify, the imperative to promote sustainable alternatives becomes increasingly critical in mitigating its adverse impact. Bio-based polymers, derived wholly or partly from biological materials (excluding those found in geological formations or fossilised sources), …
In her speech to the Atlantic Council earlier this month, IMF Managing Director Kristalina Georgieva said “making the right policy choices will define the future of the world economy. It will define how this decade is remembered — will it go down in history as ‘the Turbulent Twenties,’ a time of disturbance and divergence in economic fortunes; the ‘Tepid Twenties,’ …

Meeting India’s net zero timeline demands promising climate solutions still confined to labs or universities quickly find the investment and guidance required to pilot, scale, and reach mass adoption. Historically, even proven technologies such as solar PV and lithium batteries have taken decades to mature. While investor appetite for sustainable solutions is rising, the lack of performance data keeps many innovations dependent on philanthropic grants. How do we accelerate technological innovation?
