REGENT Craft, an American manufacturer of modern electric vehicles, introduces Monarch Screens for use in Egypt. These vehicles, combining the functions of a ship and an aircraft, offer exceptional efficiency - they move at speeds of up to 290 km/h, consuming less energy than traditional maritime units. The Monarchs will be used for passenger transport between Egypt's main cities and popular tourist resorts. The project supports ecological solutions and is part of the development of maritime transport based on renewable energy sources.

Germany, as part of its strategy to become independent from raw materials from Russia, has banned the operation of ships transporting Russian liquefied natural gas (LNG). This decision is a response to Russia's military operations in Ukraine and is intended to limit Russia's economic influence in Europe. In the longer term, Germany plans to invest in the development of LNG terminals and import of gas from alternative directions, including the United States and Qatar.

Monopoles for the Baltic Power wind farm, located 23 km off the coast of Poland, were manufactured and shipped from Germany. A farm with a capacity of 1.2 GW will provide energy for one million households. The company announced that a total of 26 transports will be made to the transhipment port, from where the elements will be delivered to the construction site in early 2025. A total of 78 monopiles will be installed on the wind farm, 76 for wind turbines and 2 for offshore power stations. The project is an important step in the development of the Polish renewable energy sector, reducing CO2 emissions by 2.8 million tons per year. The investment supports the country's energy transformation. The Baltic Power offshore wind farm with a capacity of approx. 1.2 GW, planned to be built in the Baltic Sea, and scheduled for completion and launch in 2026, is a joint venture of Orlen and the Canadian company Northland Power.
