“Project Volt Gas Volt” proposes long-term financing plan to support widespread implementation of power-to-gas systems

Green Car Congress

Although they are targeting an initial implementation France, they see it as broadly applicable. The hydrogen is combined with CO 2 to produce methane, which is pumped into and stored in the existing natural gas grid and used like natural gas for use in power generation, transportation, or other thermal and industrial uses.

Steelmaker ArcelorMittal Europe targets 30% cut in carbon emissions by 30% by 2030

Green Car Congress

Fossil fuel carbon capture and storage, where the current method of steel production is maintained but the carbon is then captured and stored or re-used rather than emitted into the atmosphere. An industrial pilot of this technology is being developed at ArcelorMittal Dunkirk in France.

UK power crisis – entirely the fault of regulators and ministers

EV Info

With the demise of the North Sea production as the fields empty we are increasingly reliant on the pipe that winds its way across Europe pumping Russian gas into Germany, France and other on route. Or in other words we are reliant on Putin to keep the light on and at his mercy on the cost of the gas. True cost of Smart Meters.

New flexible MOF for enhanced adsorbed natural gas storage on vehicles

Green Car Congress

If, however, a responsive adsorbent could be designed to expand to store a high density of CH 4 at 35–65 bar, and to collapse to push out all adsorbed CH 4 at a pressure near 5.8 Last year, however, a study by UC Berkeley’s Berend Smit found that rigid MOFs have a limited capacity to store methane.
