Exxon Mobil Says It Can Make Money Decarbonizing Steel

"Carbon-capture technology can gather carbon dioxide from smokestacks or other industrial equipment, compress and liquefy it, and then pipe it to underground storage locations. This project, expected to start in 2026, would capture about 800,000 metric tons of carbon a year from producing iron used in steel, and bring Exxon’s (XOM) total project pipeline to more than 5 million tons a year."

Takachar is on a Mission to Transform Agriculture Globally

"Vidyut explained that his drive for launching Takachar and advancing clean tech started early, sharing, 'I grew up in New Delhi, and the city is known to have one of the worst air qualities in the world. You can see it around here right now, right? This is due to the open burning of agricultural waste here. So every winter, we would have very bad air quality and part of it would be contributed by the open burning of agricultural waste in farms surrounding the city.'"

There is more than one way to make green steel

"Another advantage of relying on electricity is that the world already produces and distributes plenty of it, whereas almost no infrastructure yet exists for making and supplying hydrogen. To top things off, Boston Metal’s approach is based on cells that are much smaller than furnaces. That makes electrolytic production modular and easy to scale up."

At the Port of L.A., a new project will harness energy from ocean waves

"Because of the density of wave energy, the technology has a relatively small footprint, generating around 50 times more power than solar panels would in the same area. On a breakwater that’s a kilometer long (six-tenths of a mile), for example, it’s possible to produce between three and five megawatts of electricity at any given time, enough to power between 3,000 and 5,000 households. The pilot in L.A. will be around 85 feet long, enough to generate 100 kilowatts. 'Most breakwaters are much larger,' says Braverman. The Port of L.A.’s extra-long breakwater could potentially generate power for as many as 60,000 households."
