…transmission are long ranges, minimal permitting requirements and flexibility in directing and re-directing loads. Additional opportunities for power beaming go beyond the resolution of power grid bottlenecks. Without wishing to…
…of different waste materials. We also review the typical sizes and end-markets for existing landfill gas capture programs. Different options exist to capture and avoid these emissions. We have assessed…
Metal organic frameworks (MOFs) are an exciting class of materials, which could reduce the energy penalties of CO2-separation by c80%, and reduce the cost of carbon capture to $20-40. This…

…direct lithium extraction. We still think that pre-existing technologies, in both spaces, have a long runway ahead, without necessarily being disrupted. Other engineered hydrogen approaches have interested us. https://thundersaidenergy.com/2024/08/15/natural-hydrogen-going-for-gold/ https://thundersaidenergy.com/2022/04/21/direct-lithium-extraction-ten-grains-of-salt/…
…an overview of the key ideas. Greenhouse gases absorb and then rapidly re-radiate infra-red radiation. This creates a less direct pathway for solar radiation to be reflected back into space….
