An international group of scientists claim black holes are the source of dark energy driving the universe's expansion.
, and they say that the source of dark energy could be properly verified if black holes continue to grow as the universe expands.

Previously many believed that dark energy was spread out across the cosmos, driving the growth of our universe. However, these new papers claim that the black holes themselves may also be housing the dark energy within the source.
But how exactly do black holes create dark energy? That’s a very good question, and one that the scientists attempted to answer in their papers. According to these new studies, dark energy is created whenever a star collapses and dies. It’s these deaths, then, that fuel the source of dark energy and help to push more expansion into the universe.
