CEF Group will set up multiple waste processing plants in various locations in Uttar Pradesh to address the problem of waste mismanagement and augment bio-fuel production at an investment ₹650 crore. CEF and the Uttar Pradesh government have signed an MoU for setting up the plants that will generate employment for approximately 240 people. The
The Net Zero Technology Centre (NZTC) and Siemens Energy have announced the successful demonstration of an aero-derived gas turbine running on green methanol. The world first pilot, at the RWG facility in Aberdeen, creates the potential for significant reductions in offshore CO2 emissions. The use of green methanol could cut carbon dioxide emissions by up
Cepsa and ACE Terminal have signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) under which Cepsa will supply green ammonia to the planned import terminal in the Port of Rotterdam, the Netherlands, for end use applications in the industry after conversion of the ammonia back into hydrogen, or for direct end use in the shipping and other
ScandiNAOS AB, Chalmers University of Technology, and the Swedish Maritime Administration (SMA) have launched a project to develop dual-fuel kits for the conversion of new and existing diesel engines to methanol operation. As informed, the project will see ScandiNAOS develop and implement a dual-fuel kit in a pilot boat owned and operated by the SMA.
Ocean Network Express (ONE) has carried out its fourth biofuel trial onboard MOL ENDOWMENT. The trial was conducted as part of the Global Centre for Maritime Decarbonisation’s (GCMD) pilot project to establish a quality, quantity and greenhouse gas emissions (GHG) abatement assurance framework for drop-in biofuels. The M/V MOL ENDOWMENT was refuelled with 992 metric
The Global Centre for Maritime Decarbonisation (GCMD) announced it has completed trialling two supply chains of biofuel blends sourced from different origins. These trials were done between 31 October 2022 and 15 February 2023 across five vessels, with approximately 4,700t of sustainable biofuel blends bunkered. The biofuels were traced from where they were produced outside
The attention towards Carbon Capture Utilization and Storage (CCUS) has been increasing around the globe. But according to the International Energy Agency (IEA), the pace of CO₂ capture projects is too little and too slow. According to the agency at least the projects need to be speeded up 30 times more by 2030 to achieve
Fossil fuel-related items – transport and household energy – contributed about 20% to India’s annual rate of inflation between April and May 2022, according to a report published by Cambridge Econometrics ‘Fossil Fuel Prices and Inflation in India’. India’s annual inflation rate was 7-8% during the period. According to the report, between January 2021 and
Chinese scientists, in collaboration with researchers from the United States, United Kingdom, Australia and Germany, have proposed an agricultural carbon reduction solution that could help China achieve carbon neutrality in its food production, according to the Institute of Soil Science under the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS). According to the research model evaluation, the total
Researchers are now one step closer in solving one of the biggest bottlenecks associated with using magnesium hydride to store hydrogen. For decades, scientists have debated why dehydrogenation within MgH2 is so difficult. But now, the research group has uncovered an answer. Tohoku University researchers drilling into the magnesium hydride hydrogen storage concept are zeroing
