The ant scurries along on six nimble legs. It catches up to its peers, a line of antennaed bugs roaming the winding surface of a tree, perpetually hunting for food. While doing so, each unknowingly leaves antibiotic microorganisms secreted from its feet. That trail of tiny footprints, indiscernible to the naked eye, is remarkably effective at protecting the tree from pathogens and pests.

Sustainable materials firm EMR has joined forces with trade association Solar Energy UK, in a bid to advance circularity efforts in the sector. There are currently limited treatment options for end-of-life solar assets in the UK. Working together with Solar Energy UKs network of businesses (including its currently 425-strong membership) across the solar energy supply chain will, suggests EMR, allow it to accelerate its efforts to increase circularity.

With the first wave of the energy transition, renewable energy sources (such as solar and wind) have begun replacing coal power generation. However, some sectors are lagging behind and struggling to decarbonize more than others, including large-scale transportation like commercial aviation, shipping, and rail transit. Electrofuels (aka eFuels) are the next generation of solutions to help the hardest-to-abate sectors pivot from their reliance on fossil fuels.
