DOE awarding $72M to 27 projects to develop and advance carbon capture technologies, including direct air capture

Green Car Congress

Under this cost-shared research and development (R&D), DOE is awarding $51 million to nine new projects for coal and natural gas power and industrial sources. In prior work with DOE, MTR has advanced membrane CO 2 capture technology for coal power plants through small engineering scale testing and studies.

The Complex Calculus of Clean Energy and Zero Emissions

Cars That Think

If you ask a bunch of experts to predict the cost of a technology 10 years from now, they’re all over the map—9 out of 10 are wrong, and you don’t know which one is right. And there are states like Georgia where public interveners don’t have any right to discovery. A year ago, we weren’t even having this conversation.
