Researchers show oil palm plantation expansion a significant source of CO2; projected to contribute more than all of Canada’s current fossil fuel emissions by 2020

Green Car Congress

OCTOBER 8, 2012

Oil palm supplies more than 30% of world vegetable oil production. Since 1990, development of oil palm plantations has cleared about 16,000 square kilometers of Kalimantan’s primary and logged forested lands— an area about the size of Hawaii.

” In all five cases, water and nutrients (N and P) are supplied by municipal wastewater, which also provides some of the carbon needed for algae growth. Additional CO 2 is supplied by flue gas from a natural gas-fired power plant. BP is supporting the Institute with a 10-year, $500-million grant. “Only through.

Fats and greases and inedible oils are opportunity feedstocks, but the US supply of fats and greases is probably on the order of less than 10 million barrels, closer to 1-2 million barrels on an annual basis. Simultaneously, we are building the plant in Hawaii with the help of the DOE grant. That’s a big sum. Earlier post.).

Using the PHEV (Plug-In Hybrid Electric Vehicle) to Transition Society Seamlessly and Profitably From Fossil Fuel to 100% Renewable Energy

Green Car Congress

JULY 17, 2015

The potential is enormous because the current grid has sufficient energy capacity to supply every vehicle in the United States if every one of them was a PHEV. These can be supplied by our current energy distribution and dispensing network without changing the infrastructure. To ignore this potential is wasteful and foolish.
