The planned investments seek to increase bike lanes, fund wider pavements and cycle and bus-only corridors as part of a GBP 250 million emergency active travel fund - the first stage of a GBP 2 billion investment. The scheme is part of the GBP 5 billion new funding which had been announced in February 2020 for cycling and buses, but was fast-tracked because of the pandemic.

The policy includes plans to

- create 150 miles of protected cycle track, and Transport for London, which plans a "bike Tube" network above Underground lines.

- GBP 50 Vouchers will be issued for cycle repairs and discounts will be attributed to employees on the purchase of a new bike through the "Cycle to Work scheme".

- bring E-scooters for trial as of June 2020.

- build more protected cycle routes in towns and improve the National Cycle Network, with higher standards for cycling infrastructure

- boost investment by creating a long term cycling programme and budget to ensure a guaranteed pipeline of funding.

- set up a new national e-bike programme, and encourage more frequent usage of e-bikes.

Saudi Pipeline Outage Hits an Oil Market Running Out of Buffers

The war in Iran that had to be over and won by the United States in about six weeks is now in its seventh month and the oil markets are starting to crack. Gone are most of the cushions the market had in the early weeks and months of the Middle East conflict. The oversupply from early this year has disappeared as oil on water was drawn down quickly when the Strait of Hormuz was closed to tanker traffic in March. Record stock releases led by the International Energy Agency (IEA) depleted strategic inventories in developed economies, including in…

Chinese Solar Panels Drop to 12 Cents a Watt, Rooftop Installs Surge Worldwide

Chinese-made photovoltaic panels cost 12 cents a watt in 2026, down from $5-$6 at the turn of the millennium, and that price collapse is now powering rooftop solar installations from Pakistani cement plants to Philippine homes and Australian suburbs, according to the Financial Times. A Pakistani cement giant has cut its power costs by up to 40% with solar at its production sites, and rooftop solar capacity in the Philippines has nearly doubled in a year. At the same time, Africa is on pace to install record gigawatts, and Australia has installed…

Hormuz Risk Opens $40-Plus Price Gap Between Crude Grades

Back in late June, after the United States and Iran agreed to cease hostilities in the Persian Gulf for 60 days, oil prices took a dive. Two months later, Brent is trading at over $107 per barrel, and WTI is moving closer to $103, as a deep chasm opens up between the price for oil stuck in the Gulf and oil that can be moved with no threat of a drone or missile attack. Iraq, OPEC’s number-two producer, has suffered some of the most severe disruptions in its oil industry because of the war between the U.S. and Israel, and Iran. The country…

U.S. Oil Inventories Jump as Cushing Stocks Keep Falling

The American Petroleum Institute (API) estimated that crude oil inventories in the United States rose by a very large 7.14 million barrels in the week ending September 11.
