Study finds engines emit exhaust nanoparticles even when not fueled during engine braking

Green Car Congress

Exhaust particle size distributions measured by ELPI (color map) and particle concentration measured by CPC (white line) during individual engine braking conditions (speed change from 32 km/h to 0 km/h). The exhaust sample was taken from the exhaust manifold. The exhaust sample was taken from the exhaust manifold.

Rystad Energy expects strong growth in hydrogen pipelines through 2035

Green Car Congress

In cases where hydrogen will be shipped (as hydrogen or its derivatives), it will eventually be distributed on land using hydrogen pipelines, which makes transport via pipelines a critical transportation mode for the gas. Europe, with its extensive gas grid, is well placed to make the jump.

DNV GL paper suggests near-term success for LNG in shipping; alternative fuel mix to diversify over time

Green Car Congress

Well-to-Propeller GHG emissions results for marine alternative fuels. DNV GL has released a position paper on the future alternative fuel mix for global shipping. The global merchant fleet currently consumes around 330 million tonnes of fuel annually, 80-85 per cent of which is residual fuel with high sulfur content.

Next-generation LNG carrier concept about 8% more energy efficient, with 5% more cargo

Green Car Congress

LNG carrier machinery systems are highly complex featuring tightly integrated sub-systems and components, such as BOG (boil-off gas) compression trains; gas management system; reliquefaction (if any); propulsion and/or generating engines; exhaust gas economizers; and boilers. The primary fuel—i.e.

EEA Report: Trends in European Transport Are Heading in the Wrong Direction

Green Car Congress

Indexed European transport sector greenhouse gas emissions, 1990-2006. Transport continues to contribute disproportionally to Europe’s greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, poor air quality and noise, and still uses the least efficient modes to move people and goods according to a new report from the European Environmental Agency (EEA).
