Reality check for methane in shipping:

@TheICCT measured 6.4% engine slippage (methane leaking uncombusted out of engine) in LNG-fuelled ships

That means even if the methane itself is somehow green, it's still as bad as fossil (GWP100)

How to certify green hydrogen? 🌱💡 Our study reveals: additional renewable generation is key, hourly matching cuts emissions, monthly varies based on electrolysis flexibility & grid cleanliness.

@NiyerClimate Grid-connected beers are overrated

@MLiebreich he could’ve referenced you lol

[Elon Musk @elonmusk]

Earth already receives about the same energy from the Sun in an hour than humanity consumes in a year.

Solar panels just need to catch a tiny amount of it to power our entire civilization!

@nworbmot Thanks! Would love me some dac at €202/t. Do you know who the most promising companies are in that space?

[Anthony Wang @anthony_wang4]

Dispatchable power at €77-94/MWh using a closed-loop methanol synthesis + allam cycle.

Interesting long duration storage concept by @nworbmot.

Could also be applied to island-mode operations where the allam cycle provides UPS + grid stability to compensate for variable RES.

Let’s make it official! Solid step forward for one of our Spanish projects.

[ETFuels @ETFuels]

ETFuels has started 2024 with a bang. Fantastic news from Spain where one of our earlier projects in Castilla-la-mancha has been officially awarded a €15M grant.

@MLiebreich @nworbmot @KarstenCapion @Maersk "using a mass balancing approach" - i.e. they injected RNG into a NG-based methanol plant in Texas.

I wonder how the chemical tankers from Texas to South Korea, Singapore, and Egypt were fuelled. 🤯

You can do the math

[Anthony Wang @anthony_wang4]

@Thepadre13 @wilson_ricks You can learn more/download the GREET model here. It seems to have some upstream emissions baked in as even with a 100% capture rate the intensity is non-zero.

IRA guidance FINALLY out

Now let’s get these rules finalised so we can unleash investment in genuine decarbonisation projects – starting with @ETFuels 1.4M tonnes of green methanol by 2030.

@DriverlessR @robinsonmeyer They are aware of this. EACs will accommodate for time-shifting using storage.

The Biden admin’s long-awaited hydrogen tax credit rules are here--and they're on the right track! I explain here: https://t.co/RG9Dpa7gTD

Now to finalize sound rules and unleash billions of investment to build tens of gigawatts of truly clean H2 projects https://t.co/Q5bnvavhEO

"The Treasury Department set a clear signal with the 45V tax credit that the race is on to produce affordable clean hydrogen in America." More from BE's Executive Vice President @MikeBoots_ on the proposed regulations: https://t.co/XScHd1664H

[Dan Esposito @DanEspo14]

The #45V debate isn't enviros vs. industry, and it never has been. Check out this fantastic new letter by industry supporters of a strong 3-pillars framework, with the collective plans to exceed 50 GW of electrolyzers and >6 MMT/year of truly clean H2.

@AriNatter Is there a leaked draft of the text available?

[Anthony Wang @anthony_wang4]

@BozzettoStefano @Sustainable2050 @BrianVad @JMGlachant @MLiebreich @baldwinbiogas But I agree that RFNBO is an unfortunate name as many will (need to) be made using biogenic carbon.

[Anthony Wang @anthony_wang4]

@BozzettoStefano @Sustainable2050 @BrianVad @JMGlachant @MLiebreich @baldwinbiogas To qualify as RFNBO it has to achieve at least 70% GHG reduction. How they demonstrate that is another question but biogenic CO2 + a clean (Swedish) power grid is a good start.
