Report finds says “negative emissions technologies” need to play a large role in mitigating climate change

Green Car Congress

To achieve goals for climate and economic growth, “negative emissions technologies” (NETs) that remove and sequester carbon dioxide from the air will need to play a significant role in mitigating climate change, according to a new report from the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine.

DOE to award $37M to four projects for carbon capture from coal power plants; targeting 90% removal with 35% max increase in electricity cost

Green Car Congress

Valued at approximately $67 million (including $15 million in non-federal cost sharing) over four years, the overall goal of the research is to develop CO 2 capture and separation technologies that can achieve at least 90’ CO 2 removal at no more than a 35’ increase in the cost of electricity.
