Fuel Watch:
Japanese companies move ahead with ammonia transport project
Japan relies almost entirely on imports of natural gas and coal to meet its energy needs. But its desire to cut carbon emissions is pushing it to test innovative methods to meet its huge energy demand and contribute to the battle against global warming. Many advances are being made in alternatives and renewables, but is an ammonia/coal mix one of them?
Decarbonising Industry:
Cementing the case for waste heat recovery
Decarbonising the hard-to-abate industrial sector is crucial in the fight against climate change. Luckily, there are many different use cases for turning unused heat into clean, affordable and reliable electricity – modules can be installed wherever waste heat is generated. Orcan Energy’s Dr Andreas Sichert says waste heat recovery modules offer a key solution to achieving climate neutrality, while saving on energy costs.
Asia Decarbonisation:
China and India: the net zero game changers
The importance of China and India to the world’s net zero emissions ambition cannot be understated, as was evident at two major global diplomatic events held in mid-November. The size of their populations, rising share of global GDP, energy markets, and emissions, mean their action on climate change has a significance that reaches far beyond their borders. Joseph Jacobelli explains.
Technology Focus:
Evolving energy storage for time-shifting
As the energy crisis rumbles on, electricity is set to become a precious commodity. Operators need to find ways to reduce their dependence on traditional sources of energy such as natural gas and fossil fuels. Saft’s Michael Lippert explains how battery energy storage systems can help them to achieve this by avoiding curtailments of wind and solar farms to maximise the integration of renewables.
