Wind and solar parks produce a large portion of their energy. In the fight against climate change, many countries have pledged to reduce their CO2 emissions to net zero. Almost all hydrogen produced today is designated as brown, black, or gray, meaning it was generated by burning natural gas or coal.

Shipping is responsible for an estimated 100 crore tonnes of CO2 per year, and 10% of that is shipping oil. Even if electricity is produced from burning coal, the power plant is far away from population centers, transferred over power lines keeping any direct pollution away from the population. In India 39.1%

Trucks Haul Coal Navajo Mine by U.S. The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) will require existing coal-fired and new natural gas-fired power plants to control 90% of their carbon emissions or shut down. Coal plants that intend to stay online beyond 2039 will have to cut or capture 90% of their CO2 emissions by 2032.

Solar EV Charging. While EVs don’t produce emissions, the electricity they use could be produced from a coal or gas-powered power plant. Therefore, with the rapid growth of demand for EVs, the charging situation has also shown a new trend – Solar EV Charging. In most cases, solar EV charging costs less than grid charging.

She and her team not only ensure that City facilities are energy efficient, they also oversee the purchase of renewable energy for City facilities, manage various community energy efficiency programs - and of key interest to me - directs the Solar Santa Moncia program. Talk about a dichotomy.

Manufacturing an EV battery using coal-based electricity results in more than three times the greenhouse-gas emissions of manufacturing a battery with electricity from renewable sources. 70 percent of lithium-ion batteries are produced in China, which derived 64 percent of its electricity from coal in 2020.

Even if you charge your EV with electricity made from coal fired generators you reduce your car’s pollution by half. If you charge with solar, is way less.

Newly installed CEO Fritz Henderson argues that pioneering projects like the Volt typically lose money until the technology catches on. Denmark did that with Wind Power and now most of their energy comes from wind rather than oil, natural gas, or coal. The intolerable act is to pretend that making cars into plug-ins will reduce CO2.
