Carbon Clean and Liquid Wind partner on eMethanol production for marine fuel

Green Car Congress

Carbon Clean, a developer of low-cost carbon capture technology, has entered into an agreement with power-to-fuels developer Liquid Wind. When used as marine fuel, eMethanol reduces carbon emissions by 94% compared to current fossil fuels. The initial project will be built in Örnsköldsvik, on the north east coast of Sweden.

MAN Engines releases first IMO Tier III engines for workboats; low-cost, SCR-only solution

Green Car Congress

The key to cost savings and greater system simplicity was the manufacturer’s decision to avoid a complex exhaust gas recirculation system and heavy, bulky components like diesel particulate filters and oxidation catalytic converters. The essentially maintenance-free exhaust gas aftertreatment system is extremely lightweight, as well.

DOE awarding $35M to 11 projects for hydrokinetic turbine development; ARPA-E SHARKS

Green Car Congress

Hydrokinetic energy is an abundant renewable resource that can boost grid resiliency and reduce infrastructure vulnerability, but it is currently a cost prohibitive option compared to other energy generating sources. These methodologies will significantly decrease the levelized cost of energy (LCOE) of the final HKT design.
