Carbon Recycling International and Johnson Matthey collaborate on sustainable methanol

Green Car Congress

Carbon Recycling International (CRI) and Johnson Matthey (JM) have agreed on a long-term exclusive catalyst supply agreement for the use of JM’s KATALCO methanol catalysts in CRI’s Emissions-To-Liquids (ETL) CO 2 -to-methanol plants. Conventional methanol production involves fossil feedstocks such as natural gas or coal.

IEA: governments must act to ensure sufficient supply of critical minerals to meet net-zero goals

Green Car Congress

A typical electric car requires six times the mineral inputs of a conventional car, and an onshore wind plant requires nine times more mineral resources than a similarly sized gas-fired power plant. The expansion of electricity networks also requires a huge amount of copper and aluminum. Source: IEA. Source: IEA. Source: IEA.

Australian thermal coal mine aims for Q4 restart on supply deal – ET Auto

Baua Electric

Surging prices for coal last year have led to some new coal mines ramping up after the war in Ukraine exacerbated a supply shortage brought on by growing reluctance from climate conscious investors to funding new fossil fuel projects. In March it had said it expected to restart in the second half of 2023.

NYK Line, JMU and ClassNK partner to commercialize ammonia-fueled ammonia gas carrier

Green Car Congress

In particular, a significant reduction in CO 2 emissions is expected to be achieved by replacing coal and natural gas as the main fuels for power generation. Parties in Japan have succeeded in generating electricity through the use of a gas turbine with 100% ammonia. Ammonia floating storage and regasification barge (A-FSRB).

NETL framework for assessing economic viability of recovering REEs from unconventional sources

Green Car Congress

The International Energy Agency estimates that demand may at least quadruple by 2040. Unconventional REE sources such as domestic coal and coal waste could yield the materials needed for the strong magnets necessary to turn wind into electricity and operate electric vehicles.

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 results show there is no realistic pathway to full decarbonization of internal combustion engine vehicles, and that only battery and hydrogen fuel-cell EVs have potential to be very low-GHG passenger vehicle pathways. This study uses recent data on industrial-scale battery production and considers regional battery supply chains.
