Fortum has developed the Joddböle area since the dismantling of its Inkoo coal-fired power plant there in 2017-2020. The area has excellent conditions for industrial activities: a deep-water harbor and an excellent electricity transmission network. Back then, it was the biggest coal-fired power plant in the Nordic countries.

Geely’s CRI investment and work with renewable methanol is similar to the approach Audi is taking with its own e-fuels projects—producing very low carbon liquid or gaseous fuels using only renewable energy, water and CO 2. Their results showed that in comparison with gasoline mode, CO emitted in methanol mode decreased 11.2%.

They used a lot more coal than they originally admitted to, several hundred million tons more. Another major shift is that China has become a voracious energy importer, especially of coal and liquefied natural gas. Like the United States, China has become among the world’s largest importers of oil, gas and coal.

Lower panel: The CNTs and CNFs provide high conductivity and superior carbon composite lightweight structural materials for jets, bridges, wind turbines, and electric vehicle bodies and batteries. Pulverized coal is often used as the flame fuel, and fuel is also added to heat and drive the calciner and preheaters. Licht (2017).

However, the resulting bio-oils are typically high in oxygen, water, solids and acids. The addition of hydrogen also raises the proportion of oxygen lost as water relative to CO and CO 2 and thereby further raises the proportion of carbon incorporated into marketable compounds.

In the US, a combination of demand reduction and displacement of coal-fired power by gas-fired generation is the lowest cost way to reduce CO 2 emissions by up to 50%. Natural gas use in the transportation sector is likely to increase, with the primary benefit being reduced oil dependence.

Also, using renewable electricity to replace electricity produced by carbon-intensive energy sources, for example, coal, would likely result in a greater reduction in emissions than using that electricity to convert CO 2 into liquid fuels. The key requirement, of course, is that the electricity used to convert the CO 2.
