In connection with this, I produced a roundup of renewable fuel plants in Europe, finding seven, and synthetic renewable fuel activities in the USA, finding two. https://cms.energypolicy.co.uk/276 https://cms.energypolicy.co.uk/276 Mon, 29 Aug 2016 23:00:00 GMT This study was prompted by: 'Powering Future Vehicles. Draft Government Strategy' published by the DTLR/DTI/DEFRA/HM TREASURY in 2001. The main objective was to reduce the CO2 emissions of future passenger cars. https://cms.energypolicy.co.uk/273 https://cms.energypolicy.co.uk/273 Fri, 26 Aug 2016 23:00:00 GMT I was a co-author of a paper 'The Future of the Hydrogen Economy: Bright or Bleak?', of which the final version was published on the web on 15 April 2003. This prompted me to make an extensive study of new automotive powertrains and fuels - to meet the increasing concerns of climate change and resource depletion - particularly Peak Oil. I found a surprising amount of data published on the web, and subjected it to careful analysis. One significant finding is that - of the various Hydrogen Fuel Cell Vehicle prototypes - the Toyota FCHV5 has the best overall 'Well-to-Wheel' efficiency. The second is that even this is inferior to the 2004 model Toyota Prius engine-electric hybrid car that is already in high-volume production. https://cms.energypolicy.co.uk/255 https://cms.energypolicy.co.uk/255 Sun, 21 Aug 2016 23:00:00 GMT Gordon Taylor & Richard Pearson I met Dr Richard Pearson when I attended a talk he gave on biofuels and synthetic liquid fuels for road transport. In this he mentioned with approval the paper 'The Future of the Hydrogen Economy: Bright or Bleak?'. I therefore proposed that we collaborate - to which he agreed. https://cms.energypolicy.co.uk/256 https://cms.energypolicy.co.uk/256 Sun, 21 Aug 2016 23:00:00 GMT The Icelandic company Carbon Recycling International has developed a process for synthesising methanol from renewable sources. The feedstocks are hydrogen produced by the electrolysis of water with geothermal and hydro electricity and carbon dioxide captured from geothermal hot water boreholes. https://cms.energypolicy.co.uk/257 https://cms.energypolicy.co.uk/257 Sun, 21 Aug 2016 23:00:00 GMT
