BNEF report finds hydrogen promising decarbonization pathway, but carbon prices and emissions policies required

Green Car Congress

The falling cost of making hydrogen from wind and solar power offers a promising route to cutting emissions in some of the most fossil-fuel-dependent sectors of the economy, such as steel, heavy-duty vehicles, shipping and cement, according to a new report from BloombergNEF (BNEF). Abatement cost with hydrogen at $1/kg (7.4/MMBtu).

Why are some EV chargers more expensive than others?

Green Charging

We do not want to waste money on cheap, low-quality commodities. Almost all EV chargers on sale today in the UK are “Type 2” Type 2 refers to the type of plug that the charger uses. Ultimately, this will reduce the cost of EV related products. We want to save money. Get a free EV charger quote now >.

Not So Prolific: US Shale Faces A Reality Check

Green Car Congress

Speaking at the National Oil-equipment Manufacturers and Delegates Society (NOMADS) in Houston a few months ago, IHS Markit’s associate direct for Plays and Basins, Reed Olmstead, poked holes in the notion that the industry has dramatically upended the cost of shale production. The implications of these findings are multiple. mb/d today.

Electric Bike Conversion Kit Selection

Electric Vehicless

As the cost of an electric bike conversion kit in comparison to a new electric cycle is half approx & not too tough to assemble, if you have time & little bit of idea about installation you have to go with an e bike conversion kit. As additional features in e bike conversion kit increase simultaneously the cost of kit increases.
