Raven SR waste-to-hydrogen plant in California to be powered by INNIO Jenbacher’s Ready-for-H2 engines

Green Car Congress

At the site, landfill gas (LFG) will be the primary fuel to provide power for the non-combustion process that converts waste to hydrogen. The collaboration with Raven’s technology offers a strong renewable hydrogen alternative to electrolysis, using less electricity and no need for fresh water. Earlier post.).

Haldor Topsoe and Nel ASA to offer end-to-end green ammonia and eMethanol solutions

Green Car Congress

Green ammonia (produced from renewable energy, water and air) and eMethanol (produced from feedstocks obtained by utilization of waste streams, electrolysis hydrogen, and CO 2 capture) are both considered promising low-carbon transportation fuels and energy carriers.

FPT Industrial unveils new Cursor 13 natural gas heavy-duty engine

Green Car Congress

The use of bio-methane has the added benefit of reducing dependency from fossil fuels, as it can be generated from agricultural and urban waste, sewage, or waste from the food industry. It can be produced locally, significantly reducing the need for transporting energy and the related CO₂ emissions.

Using the PHEV (Plug-In Hybrid Electric Vehicle) to Transition Society Seamlessly and Profitably From Fossil Fuel to 100% Renewable Energy

Green Car Congress

If PHEVs became the major form of transportation, the use of fossil fuels would be cut dramatically. Since the energy density of liquid fuels is unchallenged by any other form of energy carrier we have today, we will have to continue to use liquid fuel to support our society as we know it. Engineering Advantages of the PHEV.
