We have more on this in the news well below.<\/p>\n<p><strong>ALSO- German Chancellor Olaf Scholz was in the neighborhood this past weekend in a bid to <\/strong><strong>secure new energy<\/strong><strong> supplies for his gas-starved nation.<\/strong> Not much was signed on the green energy front, but his message to the GCC was clear: Germany is done with sourcing energy from one region. We break down the visit and what was said in this morning\u2019s climate diplomacy, below.<\/p>\n<p><a class=\"content-anchor\" id=\"tldr-story-06\"><\/a> <strong>SMART POLICY #1- Is Saudi looking to source a hydrogen-powered train? <\/strong>The Saudi Railway Company (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.sar.com.sa\/\">SAR<\/a>) and French rolling stock manufacturer <a href=\"https:\/\/www.alstom.com\/\">Alstom<\/a> signed an MoU to develop hydrogen-powered train solutions for the kingdom, Alstom <a href=\"https:\/\/www.alstom.com\/press-releases-news\/2022\/9\/alstom-collaborates-saudi-railway-company-sar-advance-sustainable\">said<\/a>. In August, Saudi Arabia\u2019s Ministry of Investment <a href=\"https:\/\/www.railjournal.com\/financial\/saudi-arabia-signs-memorandum-of-understanding-with-alstom\/\">signed<\/a> an MoU with Alstom to discuss potential investments in the country\u2019s transport sector. Alstom also agreed to look into making the kingdom its regional headquarters.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Alstom actually builds hydrogen-powered trains:<\/strong> While the current agreement only sees Alstom consulting on a strategy, the company does build and sell hydrogen-fuel-cell powered trains, including the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.alstom.com\/solutions\/rolling-stock\/alstom-coradia-ilint-worlds-1st-hydrogen-powered-train\">Coradia iLint<\/a>, which it unveiled back in 2016, which it says produces zero-emissions.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Ditto the UAE?<\/strong> Alstom also signed an MoU with the UAE\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.etihadrail.ae\">Etihad Rail<\/a> during <a href=\"https:\/\/www.innotrans.de\/en\/\">InnoTrans<\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/www.innotrans.de\/en\/\">2022<\/a> in Berlin to develop sustainable technologies in the railway sector, according to a <a href=\"https:\/\/bit.ly\/3S4rnI7\">statement<\/a> posted Thursday. The agreement partly focuses on developing <a href=\"http:\/\/tradearabia.com\/news\/CONS_401034.html\">\u201czero-emission\u201d technologies<\/a>.

Some 80% of the business leaders who took part in the survey said that government policies are essential for national and global action to mitigate and adapt to the effects of climate change, according to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cisl.cam.ac.uk\/news\/new-poll-indicates-strong-business-appetite-net-zero-regulation\">a statement<\/a> published on the university\u2019s website on Wednesday.

The high-voltage direct current (HVDC) transmission system will include two subsea links and converter stations and will have a total installed capacity of 3.2 GW. Construction began in <a href=\"https:\/\/adnoc.ae\/en\/news-and-media\/press-releases\/2021\/adnoc-and-taqa-announce-project-to-power-and-decarbonize-offshore-operations\">early 2022<\/a> and is expected to begin operations in 2025.<\/p>\n<p><strong>But Enterprise, how exactly does using a subsea transmission network slash <\/strong><strong>emissions at offshore production infrastructure? <\/strong>Offshore platforms usually generate their own electricity through gas turbines or diesel generators \u2014 but replacing these onboard generating systems with power from the mainland transmitted through subsea cables can <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hitachienergy.com\/africa\/en\/offering\/product-and-system\/hvdc\/power-from-shore\">significantly reduce CO2 emissions<\/a>.
