🚨@wef just dropped a new report on artificial intelligence’s energy paradox at #WEF25🚨
Highlights include:
⚡ As data center demand grows, reliable, dispatchable generation is needed
⚡ Intermittent renewables like wind and solar support sustainability but can cause problematic availability fluctuations
⚡ Relevant alternatives include #BECCS, geothermal, nuclear, and long-duration storage

“24/7 renewable power is going to become increasingly in demand as data centers grow, as AI grows. There’s a huge need for that commodity.” - @DraxGroup CEO @ddwg
Capacity shortfalls could mean blackouts for more than half of the US in the next decade, according to @NERC_Official. Elimini is ready to deploy realistic solutions like #BECCS that can contribute 24/7 renewable energy to the grid while removing carbon from the atmosphere.

#ETNA24 is off to a great start 🙌
☀️ Elimini President Laurie Fitzmaurice led a breakfast workshop, where attendees discussed the new era of renewables and carbon removals ushered in by #BECCS
🎤 Laurie participated in a fireside chat on driving carbon removals into the mainstream with BECCS, including current policies, technology, and project considerations
At #EnergyLive in Houston? DM us to meet up onsite.
At #Verge24 this week, our message to climate leaders has been clear:
📈 Only 0.1% of today’s carbon removals come from scalable technologies.
🎯 93% of companies will miss their climate goals without accelerating emissions reductions.
💰 Investing in carbon removal credits can help companies achieve decarbonization goals.

We’re doers, not dreamers🤝
Elimini launched at the height of #ClimateWeekNYC – and we couldn’t be prouder of the changemakers who joined us!
Watch this highlight reel to hear more about our mission and the people behind it👇
Extreme weather is getting worse ⛈️ and a more resilient power grid is needed to handle the strain.
#BECCS is one of the only renewable technologies that can build energy reliability by:
⚡ Diversifying our nation’s energy portfolio
⚡ Providing baseload renewable power
⚡ Contributing to US energy independence

Yesterday, the @GlobalCCS Institute published their 2023 status report, which documents the milestones for carbon capture and storage over the past 12 months and defines the key opportunities and challenges for coming years. 🗞️ �Yesterday, the @GlobalCCS Institute published their 2023 status report, which documents the milestones for carbon capture and storage over the past 12 months and defines the key opportunities and challenges for coming years. 🗞️ �Yesterday, the @GlobalCCS Institute published their 2023 status report, which documents the milestones for carbon capture and storage over the past 12 months and defines the key opportunities and challenges for coming years. 🗞️ �Yesterday, the @GlobalCCS Institute published their 2023 status report, which documents the milestones for carbon capture and storage over the past 12 months and defines the key opportunities and challenges for coming years. 🗞️ �Yesterday, the @GlobalCCS Institute published their 2023 status report, which documents the milestones for carbon capture and storage over the past 12 months and defines the key opportunities and challenges for coming years. 🗞️ 🌍
#VERGE23 was energizing ⚡
Key takeaways included:
💡 Renewable power solutions need to rapidly achieve massive scale
💡 By 2030, #AI could contribute 5-10% of emissions reductions
💡 We need to grow confidence in high-quality carbon credits
What were your top highlights?
#BECCS panel highlights from #USIPA2023:
⚡ Various power and #CCS approaches are needed to hit carbon reduction goals
💪 BECCS is a renewable coal alternative when harsh weather strains supply
📖 More stakeholder education remains a priority
