PNNL team develops least costly to date carbon capture system with conversion to methanol

Green Car Congress

The new PNNL carbon capture and conversion system brings the cost to capture CO 2 down to about $39 per metric ton. As described in an open-access paper in the journal Advanced Energy Materials , the new system is designed to fit into coal-, gas-, or biomass-fired power plants, as well as cement kilns and steel plants.

Wind-to-Hydrogen Tech Goes to Sea

Cars That Think

They are highly automated production islands that directly convert wind energy to hydrogen, with a few of them processing the gas into fuels and other goods. In these clusters, the wind turbines are integrated with electrolyzers that generate hydrogen from desalinated seawater. US $5 PER KILOGRAM Cost of green hydrogen today.

Shell to build LNG units in Gulf Coast and Great Lakes regions; two additional LNG for transport corridors in North America

Green Car Congress

The Interlake Steamship Company is expected to be the first marine customer in this region, as it begins the conversion of its vessels. These conversions can reduce fuel costs and local emissions. By the end of the century, cars and trucks powered by electricity and hydrogen could dominate the road. Lawrence Seaway.
