Renewable energy integration refers to the process of efficiently incorporating renewable energy sources into existing energy systems. Consumers and industries may be encouraged to shift their energy use to times when renewable energy production is high, helping to balance supply and demand on the grid.

Verification of the emission reduction or carbon sequestration is critical in efforts to mitigate climate change. One question is who will be responsible for verifying changes in carbon, which raises questions about the role of a regulatory agency for accrediting claimed changes in carbon levels from an activity.

Catalytic hydrogenation of CO 2 has been studied intensively, but the products of direct hydrogenation are limited mostly to low molecular weight (C 1 -C 4 ) hydrocarbons or oxygenates (CO, CH 3 OH, HCOOH, CH 3 OCH 3 , etc.) This product distribution is very similar to the one typically observed in CO-FT synthesis over iron catalysts.
