BNEF: producing battery materials in the DRC could lower supply-chain emissions and add value to the country’s cobalt

Green Car Congress

The DRC’s cost competitiveness comes from its relatively cheap access to land and low engineering, procurement and construction, or EPC, cost compared to the US, Poland and China. We are only at the beginning of the path to achieving net-zero emissions globally. —Ashish Sethia, global head of commodities at BNEF.

Graphex is a major global producer and distributor of graphite in its various forms. The qualification process to make sure it performs the way the battery chemists and battery engineers want it to—that is a process that just takes time. If you’re the battery engineer, you want to know, is this graphite going to work in my battery?

Oceans Lock Away Carbon Slower Than Previously Thought

Cars That Think

NOVEMBER 4, 2024

Oceans are believed to absorb roughly 26 percent of global carbon dioxide (CO 2 ) emissions by drawing down CO 2 from the atmosphere and locking it away. Marine snow may be slowed by “parachutes” of mucus while sinking, potentially lowering the rate at which the global ocean can sequester carbon in the depths.
