EV Adoption
MAY 25, 2021
And hence, while electric vehicles themselves produce zero carbon emissions, charging them increases the amount of electricity generated from fossil fuel energy sources such as coal. OK, well if you drive an EV in West Virginia it is true, as that state produces roughly 94% of its electricity from coal power plants.

Field testing the potential for combining geologic carbon dioxide storage with enhanced methane recovery is underway at a site in Alabama by a US Department of Energy (DOE) team of regional partners. The characterization phase (2003–2005), which defined opportunities for carbon capture and storage, has been completed.

Because CO 2 is a greenhouse gas, using it for this purpose also directly avoids emitting carbon dioxide into the atmosphere. Surfactants produce bubbles, similar to soap in water, which raise the viscosity of a fluid, in this case CO 2. Injected CO 2 with a higher viscosity will improve “sweep efficiency”—i.e.,

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.

With all this, consumers and policymakers alike are hopeful that society will soon greatly reduce its carbon emissions by replacing today’s cars with electric vehicles. about 60 percent of its electricity from fossil fuels, primarily natural gas, which produces less carbon than coal does. falls somewhere in the middle, deriving.
