The study led by University of Nebraska-Lincoln assistant professor Adam Liska, funded through a three-year, $500,000-grant from the US Department of Energy, used carbon dioxide measurements taken from 2001 to 2010 to validate a soil carbon model that was built using data from 36 field studies across North America.

New research by Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (LLNL), Carnegie Mellon University, SRI International and the University of Colorado at Boulder shows that drone-based delivery could reduce greenhouse gas emissions and energy use in the transportation sector. An open-access paper on the research appears in Nature Communications.

The most people were talking about was carbon offsets of various types, and there were some early talks about sustainable aviation fuels, biofuels, and all that, which are either not scalable or are super-expensive, so I felt that there is a lot of technological opportunity there. In California, there is a Low Carbon Fuel Standard program.

the “carbon footprint” of electricity production and use), according to a new study by researchers at Carnegie Mellon University. The second highest state subsidies ($6000) are in Colorado, part of the WECC region where the LEAF is likely lower emitting than the Prius and the Volt may be higher or lower.

Two tanks with a three-layer structure made of carbon fiber-reinforced plastic and other materials are used to store hydrogen at 70 MPa (approximately 700 bars or 10,000 psi). Middle layer: carbon fiber reinforced plastic (structural element). High-pressure Hydrogen Tanks. The Prius analogy.

As a point of comparison, the Siemens SGT6-5000F gas turbine for 60 Hz power plants offers a power output of 208 MW and efficiency of 38.590% in single cycle operation.). GE has also increased the efficiency in each configuration: thermal efficiency will increase to 38.5% in simple cycle operation, and to 57.5% in combined cycle operation.
