Renewable natural gas from food waste offers negative carbon intensity as LCFS pathway: -80 gCO2e/MJ

Green Car Congress

The proposed carbon intensities for the two pathways are -79.91 The food scraps are collected from grocery stores, restaurants and food service locations. The gas-fueled boiler is used to generate heat, which maintains optimal temperature in the digester and heats up the percolate. Electricity is used to run the upgrading unit.

Monash team proposes roadmap to renewable ammonia economy; 3 generations of technology

Green Car Congress

While there is global potential to generate renewable energy at costs already competitive with fossil fuels, a means of storing and transporting this energy at a very large scale is a roadblock to large-scale investment, development and deployment. Generation 2 moves the Haber-Bosch process to renewable sources of hydrogen.

Bosch on importance of renewable synthetic fuels to reach climate goals; e-fuels

Green Car Congress

Electromobility is just now picking up momentum; further, electric cars are only as emissions-free as the production of electricity that charges their batteries. One path to achieving this is with renewable synthetic fuels (e-fuels). Renewable synthetic fuels have long since left the basic research phase. Then add carbon.
