Shell partners with Uniper for blue hydrogen production

Uniper has signed an agreement with Shell to progress plans to produce blue hydrogen at Uniper’s Killingholme power station site, in the East of England. The hydrogen produced could be used to decarbonise industry, transport and power throughout the Humber region. The Humber Hub Blue Project includes plans for a blue hydrogen production facility with

To achieve netzero by 2070, India will have to triple energy generation

India must generate 18,900-22,300 Terawatt hours per year (TWh/yr) energy by 2070 if it has to develop its economy and achieve netzero at the same time, according to estimates from a new study. This is a three-fold increase in consumption from 2019. Estimating minimum energy requirement for transitioning to a net-zero, developed India in 2070

UK announces ‘package’ to unlock investment in hydrogen

The UK government announced details of £240 million funding to support the production of hydrogen as a clean, low-cost energy technology, £2.5 million of funding to develop next-generation nuclear technology and a further £5 million towards research into carbon capture. The investment is designed to support research, development and deployment of these cutting-edge technologies and

Research focuses on developing cleaner fuels from CO2

Using the planet’s air to create new chemicals for fuel, and other essential chemical products is the bold ambition of a new research project from the University of Surrey. The project aims to capture carbon dioxide (CO2) directly from the air and use dynamic catalysis to create methanol – a valuable chemical that, made this

Shell’s carbon capture plant creates more emissions than it captures

Oil giant Shell’s Quest plant has been designed to capture carbon emissions from oil sands operations and store them underground to reduce carbon emissions. However, according to a recent study by the human rights organization Global Witness, the facility actually emits more greenhouse gas emissions than it captures. Since 2015, it has prevented the release

Sinopec completes china’s first megaton scale carbon capture project

China Petroleum & Chemical Corporation has completed the construction of China’s first megaton carbon capture, utilization and storage (CCUS) project, the Qilu-Shengli Oilfield CCUS (the “Project”) on January 29, which will reduce carbon emission by 1 million tons per year, the equivalent of planting nearly 9 million trees and shutting down 600,000 economy cars.
