ExxonMobil acquires 49.9% stake in Biojet AS

Green Car Congress

JANUARY 12, 2022

According to the European Union Renewable Energy Directive, biofuels produced from wood waste can help reduce life-cycle greenhouse gas emissions by 85% compared to petroleum-based diesel. The investment in Biojet AS builds on ExxonMobil’s continuing efforts to develop and deploy lower-emission energy solutions.

GE study finds 5% of worlds natural gas production wasted per year by flaring

Green Car Congress

APRIL 4, 2011

Worldwide, billions of cubic meters (bcm) of natural gas are wasted annually, typically as a by-product of oil extraction. Depending on region, these may include power generation; gas re-injection (for enhanced oil recovery, gathering and processing); pipeline development and distributed energy solutions. Advance local solutions.

For people looking for the most effective way to end our addiction to oil, PHEVs have made sense because carmakers can build them now, with todays technology and using todays infrastructure. They reinforce the Pacific National Labs January 2007 findings that we wont have to build new power plants for cars that charge at night.
