Well-to-wheel GHG estimates for palm hydrotreated renewable diesel (HRD) fuel, with and without direct LUC, and diesel fuel included to enable comparisons. Algae have the potential to produce large volumes of fuel per unit area of production on marginal lands using saline water unsuitable for food crops. Credit: ACS, Vasudevan et al.

An international study of 10 global cities found that a balance of geophysical factors (climate, access to resources, and gateway status) and technical factors (power generation, urban design, and waste processing) determine the greenhouse gas emissions (GHGs) attributable to cities.

Comparison of biomass-to-wheel (BTW) efficiency for different biomass utilization scenarios. Because of the same input and output in all cases, an increase in energy conversion efficiency nearly equals impact reductions in carbon and water footprints on the environment. Huang and Zhang.

The only by products are water and a fair degree of heat, the latter indicating a degree of inefficiency and wasted energy. Second, while hydrogen can be otherwise produced through the electrolysis of water, this process requires huge amounts of clean and fresh water – a vital and highly valuable commodity of life that can’t be wasted.

Such engines may incorporate novel thermodynamic cycles, but should not simply involve regurgitation of existing concepts (e.g., Technologies that reduce the time needed for Li-ion cell formation and improved Li-ion coating process through the use of either dry processing techniques or more environmentally benign solvents, such as water.

Furthermore, even the older version PHEV can recharge at a slow rate using local solar, wind, water-derived or other net zero CO 2 fuel. More information on e-mile comparisons is given by Reference Nº 2.

Traveling from Sindelfingen across the Swiss Alps and Northern Italy, to its destination of Cassis on the Côte d’Azur, the VISION EQXX electric concept ( earlier post ) from Mercedes-Benz covered more than 1,000 km (621 miles) in everyday traffic on a single battery charge. m² and the reduced rear track. for the top rating in Class A.

GM says it is already looking ahead to the next generation of Volt-based vehicles — it unveiled the Cadillac Converj concept in January — and says costs will come down as the technology spreads to more models. That way you have a fair basis of comparison, you know, apples to apples and all that jazz.
