Midstream opportunities in the energy transition?
…rises 8% by 2030 and 12% by 2035 as captured in our US energy model. (3) Gas will entrench as the leading backstop for renewables, and especially in the face…
Wind: aim higher?
This data-file contains a simple model for how wind speeds and wind power co-vary with altitude. 2x greater power could likely be harnessed by a kite at 300m than a…
Vehicles: fuel economy and energy efficiency?
Vehicle fuel economy and energy efficiency are quantified in this data-file, looking across different transportation types: cars, trucks, buses, hybrids, electric vehicles (EVs), hydrogen cars, planes, trains, helicopters, plus other…

Oil Companies Drive the Energy Transition?
There is only one way to decarbonise the energy system: leading companies must find economic opportunities in better technologies. No other route can source sufficient capital to re-shape such a…
Round Trip Battery Efficiencies
This data-file derives the ‘net round trip efficiency’ of nine different battery solutions for storing energy. Rough costs are also estimated. Net round trip efficiency is calculated as the energy…
Tree database: forests to offset CO2?
Nature-based solutions are among the most effective ways to abate CO2. Forest offsets will cost $2-50/ton, decarboning liquid fuels for <$0.5/gallon and natural gas for <$1/mcf (chart below). $499.00 – Purchase Checkout…
Hydrogen Cars: how economic?
We have modelled the relative economics of hydrogen cars fed by renewable energy and hydrolysis of water, to assess whether they can be cost-competitive. In our base case US assumptions,…
Major technologies to decarbonise power?
Leading Oil Majors will play a crucial role in decarbonising the energy system. Their initiatives should therefore be encouraged by policy-makers and ESG investors, particularly where new energy technologies are…
De-carbonising carbon?
Decarbonisation is often taken to mean the end of fossil fuels. But it could become more feasible simply to de-carbonise fossil fuels. This 19-page note explores two top opportunities: next-generation…
