The new PNNL carbon capture and conversion system brings the cost to capture CO 2 down to about $39 per metric ton. As described in an open-access paper in the journal Advanced Energy Materials , the new system is designed to fit into coal-, gas-, or biomass-fired power plants, as well as cement kilns and steel plants.

Conversion kits also will be available to switch medium-duty gasoline vehicles to run on propane. PERC estimates that operating costs of a propane fleet typically range from 5 to 30% less than a gasoline-powered fleet, when capital costs (vehicle and infrastructure) and operation and maintenance costs are all taken into consideration.

Specifically, low cost and energy-efficient processes are sought that can be demonstrated and validated under field conditions to meet needs of the nascent algal biomass industry. Algae cultures tend to be relatively dilute, and the energy requirement to remove water from the cultures can be a significant portion of the energy balance.

The combination of harvesting whole forests and burning long-sequestered carbon sources such as coal or oil has impaired the Earth’s carbon cycle at an increasing pace. The grid then becomes more efficient, thus reducing the cost of delivered electricity to everyone. (In The significance of this opportunity is immense.

And, if you consider lifetime costs of owning an EV versus owning a traditional internal combustion car, even if the initial purchase price of the EV is much more than your combustion car and you have to replace a battery for $4,000 after 7-10 years, the EV still costs less to operate. If you charge with solar, is way less.
