Once c75% of the customers have left a gas network, it will become very difficult for these gas distributors to remain…
…CCS. They include direct electricity use (e.g., for CO2 compression in pipelines and disposal facilities). And they include thermal loads in the amine reboiler, absorbing heat that could otherwise have…
…2050, of which one half, or 3 GTpa is conventional CCS. Data are given for the costs and energy penalties of conventional CCS — spanning across amine plants, CO2 pipelines,…
…as they accept project risk. This might include building out power grids, pipelines, fiber-optic cables, and PPA-backstopped wind and solar. And thus another legitimate strategy in the energy transition investing…
…efficient. This is visible in the title chart. And we have modelled the economics of container ships, bulk carriers, LNG shipping, commercial aviation, mine trucks, electric railways, pipelines and other…
…for CO2 trucking or CO2 shipping). But there are some unexpected spikes in the heat capacity ratio in the ranges relevant to CO2 pipelines (100-bar) and CO2 gas turbines (300-bar)….
…the different CO2 intensities or energy intensities of different companies. The best example is looking at acreage position by position in the US oil and gas industry, refiners, gas pipelines,…
…Similar examples include pipelines and utility pumps. In the tech industry, the internet uses 1% of all global energy and 2% of all global electricity, of which one-third is data-centers…
