  Oil rises to near seven-month high on US–Iran tensions, trade policy

Read more Oil prices rose on Tuesday, nearing seven-month highs, with traders assessing geopolitical risks ahead of another round of U.S.-Iran nuclear talks, while U.S. trade policy uncertainty added to broader concerns.
  Brent crude futures rose 59 cents, or 0.8%, to $72.08 a barrel by 0424 GMT, while U.S. crude futures climbed 57 cents, or 0.9%, to $66.88 a barrel.
  Brent is trading at its highest since July 31, while WTI is at its firmest since August 1.
  "At this stage, geopolitics is clearly doing most of the heavy lifting for oil prices, with the current firmness largely driven by anticipation rather than actual supply loss," said Phillip Nova senior market analyst Priyanka Sachdeva.
  "The risk of possible military escalation in the Middle East is gaining traction, and thus, traders appear to hedge against worst-case scenarios."
  Iran and the U.S. will hold a third round of nuclear talks on Thursday in Geneva, Oman’s Foreign Minister Badr Albusaidi said on Sunday.
  The United States wants Iran to give up its nuclear programme, but Iran has adamantly refused, and denied it is trying to develop an atomic weapon.
  The State Department is pulling out non-essential government personnel and their families from the U.S. embassy in Beirut, a senior State Department official said on Monday, amid growing concerns about the risk of a military conflict with Iran.
  
  U.S. President Donald Trump said in a social media post on Monday that it will be a "very bad day" for Iran if it does not make a deal.
  "Crude oil remains at the very top of the $55–$66.50 trading range that has defined the past six months," Tony Sycamore, an IG market analyst, said in a note to clients.
  "A sustained break above the top of this range would open the way for further gains towards $70.00–$72.00. Conversely, signs of de-escalation would likely see a retracement back towards $61.00."
  On the trade policy front, Trump on Monday warned countries against backing away from recently negotiated trade deals with the U.S. after the Supreme Court struck down his emergency tariffs, saying that he would hit them with much higher duties under different trade laws.
  "... U.S. President Donald Trump created uncertainty for global growth and fuel demand with a new round of tariff hikes," UOB Bank analysts said in a client note.
  Trump said on Saturday he would raise a temporary tariff from 10% to 15% on U.S. imports from all countries, the maximum level allowed under the law. Source: Reuters/Investing.com

  U.S. Energy Dominance Push Collides with EU Methane Rules

The call came in the context of plans by the U.S. federal government... Read more Last week, U.S. Energy Secretary Chris Wright called on the International Energy Agency to stop fixating on climate change and instead return to its original focus on energy security. The call came in the context of plans by the U.S. federal government to significantly increase the amount of oil and gas the country exports—plans for energy dominance. Europe is the top destination for these plans, and it may have to ditch its net-zero plans as well if it wants energy security.
  
  “We’ve gotten off track on energy ... it has gotten so ridiculously out of whack that it has driven deindustrialisation and made our countries geopolitically weaker,” Secretary Wright said during the IEA’s ministerial meeting last week. He also said that the IEA’s scenarios for the energy system of the future were unrealistic—something the U.S. has said before, prompting the IEA to bring back its Current Policies Scenario. The organization had previously abandoned that scenario—which reflects physical reality—in favor of the Net-Zero Scenario and the Stated Policies Scenario, all of which predict a significant and steep decline in the demand for hydrocarbons.
  
  This decline, however, has yet to materialize, including in top net-zero investing nations such as China, the UK, Germany, and other European countries that have prioritized emission reduction over economic growth. The European Union’s imports of liquefied natural gas specifically, are running at a record, and this record is about to be broken this year yet again. With the EU’s gas in stock at just 30%, demand for replenishment would be greater than in the last four years—and most of that gas will come from the United States. But there is a problem.
  
  In line with its focus on emission reduction, the European Union two years ago adopted a methane regulation aimed at reducing not only the EU’s own emissions of the greenhouse gas but also forcing countries outside the EU that do business with the bloc to cut their emissions as well. The regulation, starting this year, extends to all energy suppliers to the EU—and these suppliers are the opposite of happy about it.
  
  The United States emerged as the biggest supplier of liquefied gas to the EU after 2022. Indeed, to secure the energy dominance from his agenda, President Trump negotiated a trade deal with the EU’s Ursula von der Leyen that involved a commitment to buy $750 billion worth of U.S. energy commodities over three years. But that cannot happen with the methane directive, which imposes expensive methane emission tracking, monitoring, verifying, and reporting obligations on energy exporters to the EU.
  
  Qatar, which is the second-largest LNG supplier to the EU, complained about the direction several times, ultimately spelling it out: if the EU is so concerned about methane emissions, they should look for some other source of LNG because Qatar would stop selling to the bloc. The U.S. also warned the regulation was unwelcome, with Secretary Wright saying it was impossible to implement and describing it as “a critical non-tariff trade barrier that imposes an undue burden on U.S. exporters and our trade relationship.” The U.S. demanded an exemption from the regulation until 2035, but the EU’s energy commissioner took a tough stance, saying the regulation will remain in place for all—at least for the time being. Because energy security does matter more than net-zero plans.
  
  The European Union’s appetite for liquefied natural gas soared sharply after the decimation of the Russian pipeline supply. Despite all the net-zero plans of all the European governments, industries, and households still needed reliable energy—even as it became increasingly expensive, causing that deindustrialization that Secretary Wright has noted repeatedly as an unwelcome outcome of energy transition efforts. The cost of energy is already causing certain stirrings in political circles in Europe, with signals emerging that decision-makers may yield to pressure to bring costs down by lightening the emission regulation load—and helping the United States advance its energy dominance agenda.
  
  In addition to the methane directive, the EU central government would have to scrap two other directives as well if it wants to continue buying U.S. liquefied gas and crude oil. The corporate sustainability due diligence directive, or CCDDD, and the corporate sustainability reporting directive, or CSRD, both put a myriad of reporting requirements on companies from outside the EU, spanning issues from human rights abuse to, once again, emissions. The financial burden that these additional requirements would place on companies would not be met with any enthusiasm.
  
  Ultimately, it would be a choice between net zero and economic survival for the EU. The two have proven time and again to be not simply incompatible but at odds with each other, as noted by various U.S. officials and evidenced by growth trends in the U.S. and top European economies such as Germany and the UK. America’s top gas client would have to decide whether it wants to have functioning economies or net zero emissions, and America itself seems eager to force it to make the right decision.

  Renewables Top 25% of U.S. Power as Coal’s Grip Collapses
  In 2025, the share of renewables in U.S. electricity generation has surpassed 25 percent. Over the course of the past 20 years, their share has continuously risen from just 8.6 percent in 2007. At the same time, as Statista's Kathraina Buchholz... Read more In 2025, the share of renewables in U.S. electricity generation has surpassed 25 percent.
  
  Over the course of the past 20 years, their share has continuously risen from just 8.6 percent in 2007.
  
  At the same time, as Statista's Kathraina Buchholz details in the infographic below, coal in electricity generation fell from a share of 49 percent to just 16.4 percent last year.

  While Trump administration's policies regarding renewable energy and greenhouse gases have yet to show their full effect, experts believe that the sector's strong growth as well as efficiency and cost improvements will cause it to expand further – albeit slower – despite some government funding losses and the end of emission limits.
  
  In 2022, more electricity was generated from renewable sources in the U.S. for the first time over the course of one year than from coal.
  
  That year, renewable energy sources created more than 900 terawatt-hours of electric power in the country compared to a little over 800 that came from coal.
  
  On a global scale, this change happened last year as renewables outweighed coal electricity generation in the second half of 2025.
  
  Up until 2007, coal accounted for more than 2,000 terawatt hours of electricity in the U.S. before the figure started to declined as regulations around fossil fuels - limits on carbon-intensity and the emissions of toxic elements like mercury - tightened. Electricity generation from natural gas gained pace as a result since it produces somewhat less CO2. To reach the emission goals associated with the net zero age, however, the U.S. would have to continue growing carbon-neutral electricity sources like wind and solar, which have been on a steady upwards climb in the new millennium and are now the second biggest source of electric power in the country.
  
  Looking not only at electricity but energy use as a whole, renewables have a longer way to go in the U.S. and globally.
  
  Here, renewable energy made up only 9 percent in 2023 as energy sources outside of electricity - most notably petroleum in the form of gasoline - are added to the mix. Source: Oilprice.com
