In Canada, StormFisher Hydrogen announced the acquisition of Recyclage Carbone Varennes (RCV) following a court–approved process. By building on RCV’s existing infrastructure and expertise, StormFisher will create North America’s first large-scale low-carbon methanol plant. StormFisher will collaborate with its Varennes team and build on their expertise. Unlike the initial RCV project, which relied on biomass […]
In Nebraska, Green Plains Inc. announced the successful startup of its carbon capture and storage (CCS) equipment in York, Nebraska, marking a key milestone in the expansion of its carbon capture capabilities. The CCS equipment is now fully operational and is delivering significant volumes of biogenic carbon dioxide to the Tallgrass Trailblazer pipeline for permanent […]
In the UK, Exolum announces its decision to invest £4.5 million in creating the UK’s first independent Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) blending facility at Redcliffe Bay in south-west England, as part of new plans for a UK-wide network of SAF blending hubs. The announcement comes as the UK’s Sustainable Aviation Fuel Bill, which creates new […]
In Australia, Wagner Sustainable Fuels has commenced operations at Australia’s first dedicated Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) blending terminal, partnering with Boeing and technology provider, FlyORO, to achieve the critical aviation and renewable energy milestone. The facility, which is powered by FlyORO’s proprietary patented technology, is not only an Australia first, but also the first SAF […]
In Texas, a team of researchers at Texas A&M University has developed a biodegradable battery using natural polymers. Its findings were published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences. The research group in the College of Arts and Sciences has spent the past 15 years shifting toward natural products for the construction of […]
In the UK, Carbon Capture and Storage Association (CCSA) annual conference, Minister Shanks, Minister for Energy in the Department for Energy Security and Net Zero, delivered a keynote address emphasizing that Carbon Capture, Utilization and Storage (CCUS) is essential to delivering clean power and industrial decarbonization and that the UK must accelerate deployment if it […]
In Brazil, Vale and locomotive manufacturer Wabtec Corporation announced a partnership to develop studies on a dual-fuel engine that can use both diesel and a mixture of diesel and ethanol. The studies will initially be conducted in the laboratory to validate the concept and evaluate performance, emissions reduction, and the ethanol/diesel substitution rate. The studies […]
In India, after operating successfully for two years, the pioneering carbon capture project at NTPC’s 500 MW coal-fired Unit-13 at the Vindhyachal Super Thermal Power Station in India has reached a major milestone when CO2 captured from flue gas using Carbon Clean’s CaptureX semi-modular technology was used to produce the first drop of methanol. The […]
In Spain, by leveraging the book and claim model, the Avelia platform aims to reduce the life cycle greenhouse gas (GHG) aviation emissions and enable greater participation in the sector’s decarbonization efforts. The platform provides wider access to the GHG benefits of SAF across the aviation value chain. This agreement supports Moeve’s Positive Motion strategy […]
