For the transportation sector, electrification means replacing fossil fuels with electricity as the means of powering light-duty vehicles, medium- and heavy-duty trucks, and buses. Globally, the transportation sector contributes about 25% of all CO2 emissions. What is the potential for reducing emissions?

The current global economic downturn will dampen world energy demand in the near term, as manufacturing and consumer demand for goods and services slows.

Witte: So I was actually pretty interested in this topic for a couple years now, and then really started diving deeper into it maybe a year-and-a-half ago when Microsoft had signed a memorandum of understanding with one of the big CCS projects that is called Northern Lights. I don’t think anybody’s really considering that anymore.

For more than a year now in this blog I’ve been researching and reporting on climate change, energy and transportation issues and related environmental stories covering them on both a personal and a global perspective. The truth is, I’m unabashedly fascinated by and truly interested in the work they’re doing.
