Globally, the transportation sector contributes about 25% of all CO2 emissions. In the US, 36% of electricity is generated using renewables, including wind, solar, and hydropower, as well as non-CO2-emitting nuclear power. An additional 35% is from natural gas, which emits the least CO2 of any fossil fuel.

Vulcanol is CRI’s brand name for renewable methanol, produced from CO 2 and hydrogen from renewable sources of electricity (hydro, geothermal, wind and solar). Methanol can be produced from a range of renewable sources and fossil-fuel based feed-stocks; in practice methanol is mainly produced in coal-rich China from coal.

Wind and solar parks produce a large portion of their energy. In the fight against climate change, many countries have pledged to reduce their CO2 emissions to net zero. Almost all hydrogen produced today is designated as brown, black, or gray, meaning it was generated by burning natural gas or coal.

Solar EV Charging. While EVs don’t produce emissions, the electricity they use could be produced from a coal or gas-powered power plant. Therefore, with the rapid growth of demand for EVs, the charging situation has also shown a new trend – Solar EV Charging. In most cases, solar EV charging costs less than grid charging.

Denmark did that with Wind Power and now most of their energy comes from wind rather than oil, natural gas, or coal. Generating electricity from wind and geothermal rather than a CO2 producing sources would help alleviate that problem. The intolerable act is to pretend that making cars into plug-ins will reduce CO2.
