SGH2 building largest green hydrogen production facility in California; gasification of waste into H2

Green Car Congress

The plant will feature SGH2’s technology, which will gasify recycled mixed paper waste to produce green hydrogen that reduces carbon emissions by two to three times more than green hydrogen produced using electrolysis and renewable energy, and is five to seven times cheaper. —Lancaster Mayor R. Rex Parris.

EPRI-NRDC report finds widespread vehicle electrification and a cleaner grid could lead to substantial cuts in GHG by 2050

Green Car Congress

This study builds on the 2007 Environmental Assessment of Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicles by EPRI and NRDC ( earlier post ), which showed that plug-in hybrid electric vehicles could contribute to reductions in national greenhouse gas emissions, while also leading to improved air quality.

Aqua Metals is building a more sustainable battery recycling ecosystem

Charged EVs

Pyrometallurgy, which traditionally doesn’t recover carbon or lithium, seems likely to be phased out. The company is building a new plant in Nevada, and aims to be processing 10,000 tons of black mass (equivalent to about 150,000 EV battery packs) annually by 2025. The output consists of those critical battery minerals and metals.

UK publishes EV smart charging plan

Green Car Congress

To do that we need to build new network infrastructure at pace, using the latest available technologies. The new announcements build on steps already taken by the government to enable smart and flexible electric vehicle charging. This will let people take control of their energy usage, in the most convenient and low-cost way.

NTSB Chair questions safety impact of heavy EVs

Green Car Congress

Now I want to be clear: I am inspired by the Administration’s commitment to phasing out carbon emissions. They require more materials and energy to build and propel them, adding to emissions and energy use. Electric vehicles powered from a clean grid are an essential step in the right direction. —Shaffer et al.
