Honeywell’s UOP—a major international supplier and licensor of technology for petroleum refining, gas processing, petrochemical production and major manufacturing industries—has also been an early leader in developing technologies for the production of renewable drop-in hydrocarbon fuels. Earlier post.) Hydroprocessing.
The findings suggest that developing nations are moving toward cleaner power but not nearly fast enough to limit global CO 2 emissions. Investment in new wind, solar, and other non-large hydro renewables projects in the country fell to $86 billion in 2018 from $122 billion in 2017. —Ethan Zindler, head of Americas at BNEF.
Even so, solar-thermal developments continue to unfurl across the planet's sunniest expanses, driven by the growing demand for energy storage and cleaner heat sources. Atacama Desert, Chile The US $1.4 Power Tower Cerro Dominator : 100-MW solar-thermal power tower + 100-MW solar PV plant. billion project began full operations in June.

Porsche and several partners already have a trial plant in Chile churning out synthetic fuel. If the energy used doesn’t come from renewable sources, synthetic fuel is no cleaner than fossil fuels. Not everyone is convinced on synthetic fuels, though.
This includes initiatives in countries like Australia, Argentina, and Chile. The move to diversify and expand lithium sources is crucial for India’s ambitious renewable energy goals and to meet the increasing demand for lithium-ion batteries in various sectors, including electric vehicles.
Considering a use case with the following supply chain, The total emissions for lithium extraction in Chile, which then stays in Chile for lithium processing and proceeds to Korea for cell manufacturing and vehicle assembly will be 1.5 tons of GHG each year assuming 50% energy generation from renewable energy [3,6].
It has become a cleaner energy storage solution. However, electric vehicles basically are emission-free at least when they are powered by electricity generated from renewable sources such as wind, solar, etc. Read further to know more about the climate impact of lithium-ion batteries. . Climate impact of lithium-ion batteries.
While the manufacturing of ICEVs has seemingly stalled in reducing carbon emissions, EVs have a cleaner and ever-improving future ahead. New Zealand is committed to generating electricity from renewable sources, making producing electricity for our growing number of electric vehicles increasingly more efficient than most other countries.

We EVangelists have gotten used to smugly pointing to the steadily declining costs of batteries (and renewable energy). Primary supply sources are concentrated in the Democratic Republic of Congo for cobalt, Southeast Asia and Russia for nickel, and Australia/Chile/China for lithium,” says Litinsky. “In Farewell to falling prices.
