…disposal cost comes in around $100/ton (page 11). It is interesting to draw comparisons between the relative costs and complexities of transporting hydrogen (page 12). Who could transport CO2 in…
…appeal of electrification, natural gas, ultra-efficient gas turbines, CHPs, advanced nuclear HTGRs and new super-critical CO2 power cycles; and conversely, some relative drawbacks for steam cycles, green hydrogen and electro-fuels….
…in our pumped hydro model, other battery models. So we do not think long term storage (via batteries or hydrogen) will ever come into the money. We see more opportunity…
…Betz Limit and Shockley-Queisser limit, respectively). There is a paradox about many energy transition technologies. Long-term battery storage and green hydrogen would depart quite markedly from the historical trend of…
…above 60% in 2050 in our roadmap to net zero. However, many transition technologies, especially hydrogen value chains, have round-trip efficiencies well below the global average. How can you increase…
…released when reforming natural gas into hydrogen, which in turn is an input for the Haber-Bosch reaction, which produces ammonia. We have recently written a 12-page deep-dive report, outlining where…
Blue ammonia can economically decarbonize the fertilizer industry, using low-cost natural gas; with options to decarbonize combustion fuels in the future. This report covers where we see the best opportunities,…
…gas production, gas distribution, hydrogen production, nitrogen production, ammonia synthesis, CO2 transportation, CO2 disposal and ammonia shipping. Hence we can estimate the costs (in $/ton), CO2 intensity (tons/ton) and energy…
…here). High adiabatic flame temperatures of hydrogen will also form NOx. Meanwhile, using low-carbon ammonia as a fuel may release higher-than-normal NOx emissions as the NH3 molecule combusts (note here)….
…modules. Air Products notes that it supplies industrial gases, such as argon, helium and hydrogen used in production. High-quality silica glass and specialty plastics are also used in the cabling….
