22.01.2022 Getting to #netzero #carbonemissions will require rapid, radical innovation, a new report from the International Energy Agency (IEA) says. The report surveys the field of clean #energy technology and determines where various technologies are on the development curve and where they must get to achieve net zero by 2050. It reveals a problem that is at once politically daunting and, from an engineering perspective, eminently solvable even, or perhaps especially, in the #Covid19 era.

22.01.2022 8 Rivers Capital, inventor of a novel #supercriticalCO2 cycle, the #Allamcycle, is progressing a 280-MW NET Power natural gasfired plant in southwest Colorado and a 280-MW NET Power facility in Decatur, Illinois. Both plants are expected to reach FID by 2022 with operations commencing by 2025. 8 Rivers stated that a dozen other NET Power plants are in various phases of development, with some planned to be built outside the U.S. Full article: https://www.powermag.com/8-ri...vers-unveils-560-mw-of-allam/ More: www.powerfactbook.com

20.01.2022 The US #power and utilities industry started the new decade in a strong position, identifying new opportunities for growth while leading the economy-wide clean energy transition. But just months later, the #COVID19 pandemic struck and tested the mettle of a crisis-resilient sector in new ways. The outlook for three trends Deloitte identified at the beginning of 2020 seems to have markedly changed. In short, COVID-19 may have catalysed the industry-led #cleanenergy transition ...while lending urgency to strategic decisions about distributed #energy resources and growth opportunities.

18.01.2022 Carbon capture, utilisation and storage (#CCUS) will need to form a key pillar of efforts to put the world on the path to #netzero emissions. A net-zero #energy system requires a profound transformation in how we produce and use energy that can only be achieved with a broad suite of technologies. It is the only group of technologies that contributes both to reducing #emissions in key sectors directly and to removing #CO2 to balance emissions that cannot be avoided a critical part of net zero goals.

12.01.2022 It’s not a simple question. Of course the #wind blows without #carbonemissions, but catching it isn’t easy. Building and erecting wind #turbines requires hundreds of tons of materials steel, concrete, fiberglass, copper, and more exotic stuff like neodymium and dysprosium used in permanent magnets. All of it has a #carbonfootprint. Full article: https://www.forbes.com//how-green-is-wind-power-really-a/ More: www.powerfactbook.com

11.01.2022 Monash University’s study, while looking at North West Victoria, will aim to provide a template for other #renewable #energy zones and remote areas across Australia where #solar and #wind farms face connection delays or #curtailment due to weak #electricity grids. If we can find technological solutions, this may reduce the need to limit plant operations or upgrade #transmission infrastructure."

06.01.2022 "Like something out of Lord of the Rings, the #NEM had no ruler, but three stewards: a rule maker (#AEMC), an operator (AEMO) and a regulator (Australian Energy Regulator). #Power was carefully balanced between these three, framing the market like a boxing ring, allowing businesses to duke it out in the middle." The broken governance of National Electricity Market must be fixed to avoid the high costs of a return to central planning on an epic scale, and re-design for the radical transformation unfolding before us.

04.01.2022 High-voltage direct current (#HVDC) technology offers several advantages compared to alternating current #transmission systems. For example, it allows more efficient bulk #power transfer over long distances. However, cost is an important variable in the equation. Once installed, HVDC transmission systems are an integral part of the electrical power system, improving stability, reliability, and transmission capacity.

03.01.2022 Decisions over the next decade will play a critical role in determining the pathway to 2050. For this reason, the International Energy Agency (IEA) WEO examines what the net zero emissions 2050 would mean for the years through to 2030. Total #co2emissions would need to fall by around 45% from 2010 levels by 2030, meaning that #energy sector and industrial process CO2 emissions would need to be around 20.1 Gt, or 6.6 Gt lower than in the sustainable development scenario in 2030.
