The focus of the work was on alternative jet fuels that could be available commercially in the next decade using primarily North American resources. The prospects for FT jet fuels depend crucially on construction of a few pioneer commercial plants in the next few years. Click to enlarge. million bpd. billion and $8.3

The MIT Energy Initiative has released a new report on reducing carbon dioxide emissions from existing coal plants. There is no credible pathway toward prudent greenhouse gas stabilization targets without CO 2 emissions reduction from existing coal power plants. We may not see a strong CO 2 price signal for many years.

The US Department of Energy (DOE) selected eight projects to advance the development of transformational oxy-combustion technologies capable of high-efficiency, low-cost carbon dioxide capture from coal-fired power plants. The Energy Department’s $7 million investment—leveraged with recipient cost-share to support approximately $9.4

MIT researchers are proposing a novel electricity generation process using natural gas and solid oxide fuel cells at high electrical efficiency (74%HHV) with zero atmospheric emissions. Absent any price for carbon emissions, Adams says, when it comes to generating electricity “ the cheapest fuel will always be pulverized coal. ”
