“'Turquoise' hydrogen presents an interesting opportunity because it introduces a carbon-to-value proposition that can improve the commercial viability of the technology. In particular, the solid carbon that is recovered during hydrogen production via pyrolysis can be used in existing applications that involve carbon black, graphite, carbon fiber, carbon nanotubes (CNTs), graphene and other derivatives. Moreover, it can be applied in various applications, ranging from new advanced carbon materials to soil amendments, across different economic sectors, such as construction, transportation, and agriculture."
Carbon Capture, Utilization, and Storage 101
"Carbon capture is an important technology that can significantly reduce emissions from energy, transportation, and industrial manufacturing. Carbon capture reduces these emissions by either capturing carbon at the source (i.e. when polluting activities take place) or pulling it directly from the open atmosphere to reduce our overall footprint.
Why Financing the Multi-Trillion-Dollar Transition to Net Zero Isn’t That Hard
"First, the sums involved aren’t that large when properly scaled. As Mr. Moynihan says more than once: 'It’s not that much money.' Second, while government action is key, the private sector through its own commitments to net zero can create the revenue streams needed to mobilize capital."
Mangrove Lithium Closes USD $10M Series A Led By Breakthrough Energy Ventures
"Mangrove Lithium, a Vancouver based company, has developed a breakthrough platform for the most cost-effective production of battery grade lithium hydroxide and carbonate from diverse input streams and assets. Mangrove’s modular solution can be scaled to any capacity and co-located with upstream lithium producers or cathode and cell manufacturers."
France’s Macron Bets on Nuclear Power to Fight Climate Change
"France already relies on nuclear power to generate more than 70% of its electricity. But the average age of its fleet of reactors is 37 years old, putting pressure on authorities to bring a new generation on to the market in the coming years."
Eco-Modernism: The Cure to Climate Nihilism
Our environmentalism must increase human prosperity if it is to work and to make a world worth living in.
Global oil demand set to rise 2% to new high in 2023, says IEA
"But the IEA said supplies would soon match demand, adding: 'After seven consecutive quarters of hefty inventory draws, slowing demand growth and a rise in world oil supply through the end of the year should help world oil markets rebalance.'"
Climate Lockdowns Aren’t the Answer to Lowering Emissions
Preventing economic prosperity not only produces harmful negative externalities: it is also an extremely costly way to eliminate emissions.
Simplifyber Secures $3.5M Seed Investment to Reinvent How Clothing is Made, with Sustainable, Advanced Manufacturing
"The company has developed a novel approach to clothing and accessory manufacturing that removes traditional spinning, weaving, cutting, and sewing and replaces it with a sustainable, less resource-intensive process, and fully biodegradable solution – cutting out 60% of the steps and reducing the 35% of materials in the fashion supply chain that ends up as waste."
Global nuclear hydrogen group forms
"The group plans to pursue nuclear hydrogen demonstration projects, engage the financial sector to finance such technologies, and advocate for policies that support deploying nuclear hydrogen, members tell Axios. It is not a lobbying organization, however."
