Navigator CO2 to provide ~600k TPA of CO2 as a feedstock for ultra-low carbon Infinium eFuels

Green Car Congress

Electrofuels provider Infinium and comprehensive carbon management company Navigator CO2 entered into a Memorandum of Understanding and long-term relationship for Navigator to deliver 600,000 tons per annum (TPA) of biogenic carbon dioxide from its Heartland Greenway system to a future Infinium facility for the production of electrofuels (eFuels).

IAV unveils new battery assembly concept that is easier to recycle, with better CO2 balance

Green Car Congress

The concept is not only interesting for future vehicles—it can be integrated into existing e-models as well. In the future, these would be made of more recyclable materials and, with innovative joining techniques, can be joined and separated more easily. Wherever possible, click and plug-in connections are used.

Sandia team puts power into local grid with supercritical CO2 closed-loop Brayton-cycle turbine

Green Car Congress

We’ve been striving to get here for a number of years, and to be able to demonstrate that we can connect our system through a commercial device to the grid is the first bridge to more efficient electricity generation. It took us a long time to get the data needed to let us connect to the grid. Importance of advanced power electronics.

Volkswagen Group and Salzgitter AG sign MOU on supply of low-CO2 steel from the end of 2025

Green Car Congress

According to Salzgitter AG, this will enable more than 95% of CO 2 emissions in steel production to be saved in future on the basis of hydrogen and renewable energies. The Volkswagen Group plans to use the low-CO 2 steel from the end of 2025 in future projects such as the Trinity e-model, which will be produced in Wolfsburg from 2026.

Researchers develop wave-energy-driven CO2 reduction system for production of carbon-based liquid fuels

Green Car Congress

We foresee that substantial works must be done in the future to achieve practical use of such a wave energy harvesting system. For example, when advancing the design and scaling up the power output of TENGs, the inherent impedance will vary which can significantly alter the optimal charging condition to the energy storage device.

VTT and Neste to build integrated Power-to-Liquids demo facility; CO2 capture, green hydrogen and e-fuels production

Green Car Congress

During 2022 and early 2023, electrolysis, CO 2 capture, and synthesis units located in sea containers will be connected to each other and VTT Bioruukki research infrastructure. The work has started by first modifications to the research infrastructure at VTT Bioruukki. The E-fuel project pilot runs are expected to be completed during 2023.
