Air France KLM signs 210M gallon SAF offtake agreement with DG Fuels

Green Car Congress

DG Fuels (DGF), a provider of cellulosic drop-in sustainable aviation fuel (SAF), signed a multi-year SAF offtake agreement with Air France KLM for up to 60,408 metric tons (21 million gallons) per year from DGF’s initial plant to be located in Louisiana. DGF’s cellulosic feedstock does not impair food supply and is essentially water neutral.

Australia Goes All-in on Green Hydrogen

Cars That Think

For several months now, 20 teams of Australian high-school students have been designing fuel-cell cars to compete in the country’s inaugural Hydrogen Grand Prix. The task: make the most of a 30-watt fuel cell and 14 grams of hydrogen gas. Welcome to Australia, where a green-hydrogen boom is in full swing.

Wind-to-Hydrogen Tech Goes to Sea

Cars That Think

They are highly automated production islands that directly convert wind energy to hydrogen, with a few of them processing the gas into fuels and other goods. In these clusters, the wind turbines are integrated with electrolyzers that generate hydrogen from desalinated seawater. US $5 PER KILOGRAM Cost of green hydrogen today.

CICERO-led study finds global warming effect of leaked hydrogen almost 12x stronger than CO2

Green Car Congress

A study led by Norwegian climate center CICERO has found that the global warming effect of leaked hydrogen is almost 12 times stronger than that of CO 2. Unlike exhaust from burning coal and gas that contains CO 2 , burning hydrogen emits only water vapor and oxygen. —Dr Sand The GWP100 of hydrogen.

The Case for Nuclear Cargo Ships

Cars That Think

Hedging its bets, the industry is exploring ammonia, batteries, and hydrogen, among other options for powering ships. At the same time, it’s becoming apparent that alternative-fuel solutions we’re looking at have big drawbacks, and that producing these fuels will take a lot of green power that will be needed to replace coal and gas on shore.

Uhde Gasification Selected for Commercial Biomass-to-Methanol Plant in Sweden

Green Car Congress

In addition to the methanol, the plant can deliver district-heating water with a thermal duty of 15 MW. Modern interest substituting biomass for coal or natural gas as a gasification or reforming (respectively) feedstock to provide syngas for catalytic conversion to methanol reaches back several decades. Biomass to Methanol.
