Our roadmap to ‘Net Zero’ requires doubling global gas production from 400bcfd to 800bcfd, as a complement to wind, solar, nuclear and other low-carbon energy. This data-file quantifies global gas…
…what we think decision makers in the energy transition should know. The theory underpins the appeal of electrification, ultra-efficient gas turbines, CHPs, nuclear HTGRs and new super-critical CO2 power cycles….
…utilizations, powered by clean, stable grids with excess power (e.g., nuclear, hydro). PEMFCs are more suited for backstopping renewables, although there is still some debate over the costs, longevity, efficiency…
…in long-distance power transmission, decarbonized gas, next-gen nuclear; fully decarbonizing future grids while keeping costs below 10-20c/kWh. (7) Density will improve, but not enough for mass deployment of battery trucks,…
…comes from stress testing IRR models of wind, solar, hydro, nuclear, gas, coal, biomass, diesel gensets and geothermal. And from 400-years of energy history. The average sizes of power generation…
…combustion, AI-supported concentrated solar, direct lithium extraction and nuclear fusion. The average technology in our screen has only gained 0.12 rungs of the TRL ladder per year, especially mechanical-chemical technologies,…
…possible sorbents and membranes (pages 15-16). How will AI reshape lithium-ion batteries, nuclear fusion, green hydrogen value chains or nature-based solutions. We found it harder to de-risk breakthroughs using AI…
…There are also opportunities to lower the CO2 intensity of the power grid, by ramping solar, wind, hydro, nuclear. Please download the data-file to explore the air conditioning energy consumption….
…cart Steam is used across dozens of industrial processes that have crossed our screens, from manufacturing, to steam cracking, to hydrogen reforming, to amine regeneration in CCS to nuclear power….
…we have constructed levelized costs models for onshore wind, offshore wind, solar, hydro, nuclear, gas, coal, biomass, diesel gensets and geothermal. All of these numbers are shown on a nominal…
