National Research Council Report on Americas Energy Future Highlights Vehicle Efficiency Technologies, Conversion of Biomass and Coal-to-Liquids Fuels, and Electrifying the Light Duty Fleet with PHEVs, BEVs and FCVs

Green Car Congress

Developing technologies for the conversion of biomass and coal-to-liquid fuels. By 2035, cellulosic ethanol and/or coal-and-biomass-to-liquid (CBTL) fuels with carbon capture and storage could replace about 15% of current fuel consumption in the transportation sector (1.7–2.5 the power grid) are urgently needed.

How to Hasten India’s Transition Away From Coal

Cars That Think

Greenhouse gas emissions will certainly grow too, because India’s energy generation is dominated by fossil fuels—coal-fired power plants for electricity, coal- and gas-fired furnaces for industrial heating, liquid petroleum gas for cooking, and gasoline and diesel for transportation. cents per kilowatt-hour, and wind power to 3.4

Better Carbon Sequestration With AI

Cars That Think

How and where can carbon dioxide be meaningfully captured, and how can it be stored, and where? And this is actually where now you have to spend most of your energy because now you have to reheat this mixture to separate the CO 2 and get a very high content CO 2 stream out that you can then store, and then you can reuse the amine.

Wind-to-Hydrogen Tech Goes to Sea

Cars That Think

A British company, ERM , plans to have a 10-megawatt demonstration project called Dolphyn up and running off the coast of Aberdeen, Scotland, in 2026. And the Norwegian company H2Carrier recently received approval in principle for its concept for an industrial-scale floating production unit to make green ammonia at sea.

Lean Software, Power Electronics, and the Return of Optical Storage

Cars That Think

It’s very similar to the infrastructure for electric cars because the idea, ultimately, for electric cars is that you also are revamping your grid to facilitate, whatchamacallit, intermittent renewable energy sources, like wind and solar, because having an electric car that runs off a coal-fired power plant is defeating the purpose, essentially.
