Study finds total greenhouse gas footprint of blue hydrogen “quite high” due to fugitive methane

Green Car Congress

“Blue” hydrogen—produced through steam methane reforming (SMR) of natural gas or coal gasification, but with CO 2 capture and storage—is being described as having low or zero carbon emissions. Carbon dioxide emissions, including emissions from developing, processing, and transporting the fuels, are shown in orange.

Reduction in diesel carbonyl emissions using F-T fuel from coal

Green Car Congress

There was no significant difference in the profiles of total carbonyl emissions between CFT and DF. However, the use of CFT resulted in a remarkable reduction in carbonyl emissions in comparison with using DF. Kleeman (2008) “Carbonyl Emissions from Gasoline and Diesel Motor Vehicles,”. 133:115–122, doi: 10.1016/j.fuel.2014.05.025.

Norwegian startup Blastr plans €4B green steel plant in Finland

Green Car Congress

Fortum has developed the Joddböle area since the dismantling of its Inkoo coal-fired power plant there in 2017-2020. The steel industry produces about eight percent of the world’s CO₂ emissions due to the high amount of fossil fuels used to manufacture steel through conventional methods. The now-demolished Inkoo coal plant.

SRI developing process for co-gasification of methane and coal to produce liquid transportation fuels; negligible water consumption, no CO2

Green Car Congress

Researchers from SRI International (SRI) are developing a methane-and-coal-to-liquids process that consumes negligible amounts of water and does not generate carbon dioxide. If biogas is substituted for conventional natural gas, total GHG emissions can further significantly reduced (190 gCO 2 /mile). Lifecycle GHG comparison.

ICCT LCA study finds only battery and hydrogen fuel-cell EVs have potential to be very low-GHG passenger vehicle pathways

Green Car Congress

The ICCT has conducted a comprehensive global and temporal life-cycle assessment of GHG emissions from a variety of alternative passenger car powertrains and fuels. The life-cycle GHG emissions of cars registered in 2021 are compared with those of cars expected to be registered in 2030. Source: The ICCT.
