Using low-carbon fuels or biofuels as the source of heat energy to process lithium and manufacture li-ion batteries would cut carbon emissions by half as per world banks study. [4] Thier technical development unit has examined how the carbon footprint of electric cars in compares with that of internal combustion engines.

Most of the world’s lithium comes from Argentina, Chile, Bolivia, Australia and China, but American resources being developed by new entrants into this market have set up the state of Nevada to become the key venue and proving ground for game-changing trade in this everyday mineral. Without lithium, there will be no battery gigafactories.

While renewable energy, particularly solar and wind, may have some potential to mitigate carbon emissions, this is not seen as a viable large-scale alternative for commercial shipping. Renewable electricity could also be used to produce hydrogen, which in turn can be used to power fuel cells, providing auxiliary or propulsion power.

In addition to the Carbolea Research Group, the DIBANET consortium comprises partners from Argentina, Brazil, Chile, Denmark, Greece, Hungary and the UK. This can produce (i) levulinic acid, (ii) furfural (which can be converted to levulinic acid via hydrogenation), (iii) formic acid, and (iii) solid residues (SR). million (US$5.5

Because of the lower carbon/hydrogen ratio of methane (CH 4 ) relative to gasoline, CO 2 emissions from the combustion of natural gas are approximately 75% of those of gasoline for a given amount of energy production. Recently enacted state low-carbon fuel standards (e.g., MIT: leaning toward conversion for light-duty vehicles.

It predicts 35 per cent growth in the US; 30 per cent growth in Brazil; and substantial increases in areas including the Asia-Pacific region, France, Germany and Argentina. Generally, any alternative energy form that can help reduce carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions and limit our reliance on fossil fuels is well-received. Faye Sunderland.
