MSU-led regional team awarded $6M NSF grant to research biofuel, carbon capture technologies

Green Car Congress

A regional interdisciplinary team led by Montana State University has received $6 million from the National Science Foundation to address questions about whether biofuels and carbon capture technologies can be sustainably introduced into the Upper Missouri River Basin. In 1990, Congress began expanding the program beyond the NSF.

EIA releases report on CO2 emissions by state; California led in 2010 with transportation-sector emissions

Green Car Congress

The US Energy Information Administration (EIA) has released a new report, State-Level Energy-Related Carbon Dioxide Emissions, 2000-2010. The report shows a significant variation of energy-related carbon dioxide emissions across states on both an absolute and a per capita basis. million tonnes CO 2 ); California (369.8 tonnes/person).

DOE-sponsored drilling projects demonstrate significant CO2 storage at three sites

Green Car Congress

Evaluation-related test drilling at geologic sites in three states that could store a combined 64 million metric tons of CO 2 emissions—an important component of carbon capture, utilization and storage (CCUS) technology development—has been completed in projects supported by the US Department of Energy (DOE).

DOE Selects 19 Projects to Monitor and Evaluate Geologic CO2 Storage

Green Car Congress

The US Department of Energy (DOE) has selected 19 projects to enhance the capability to simulate, track, and evaluate the potential risks of carbon dioxide storage in geologic formations. Researchers will develop systems for tagging CO 2 with carbon-14 at atmospheric level (1 part per trillion) and measuring the carbon-14 CO 2 levels.

The Case for EV Charging in Every City - Big or Small

EV Connect

That makes charging station availability crucial. Department of Energy study of electric vehicle infrastructure found a significant shortage of fast-charging (DCFC) station availability across the country. And big box stores like Walmart aren’t the only business that can benefit from this type of forward-thinking. A 2017 U.S.
