I felt it was still relevant, so I re-published it as my latest newsletter. Since 2023, some of the same researchers have also started a project to test CO2 storage in Switzerland. Citizens of Zürich approved a project to store CO2 emissions from a sewer sludge waste incinerator. If things go as planned, those will be stored in the Grønsand project in Denmark and in old concrete by the company Neustark. #ccs #co2 #industrydecarbonization https://industrydecarbonization.com/news/shipping-carbon-emissions-from-switzerland-to-iceland.html
Shipping Carbon Emissions from Switzerland to Iceland

Is it feasible to transport carbon dioxide over long distances for geological storage? Researchers from Switzerland think so — and have already started shipping CO₂ to Iceland in a pilot project.

You can find the article with updates here: https://industrydecarbonization.com/archive/how-to-make-green-fuels-for-shipping-bio-methanol.html There's a part two about e-methanol that I will share soon. #methanol #biomethanol #shipping #industrydecarbonization

Do you remember any cleantech projects you found exciting 3-5 years ago, and have you checked lately how they're doing? We should do that more often — and talk about it.

How to make Green Fuels for Shipping: Bio-Methanol

Green methanol is seen as a promising future marine fuel. In the first part of a two-part series, we look at production pathways from biomass and waste.

#industrydecarbonization Why no one wanted to buy the Green Shipping Fuel

Many shipping companies see #emethanol - made from #hydrogen and #carbondioxide - as the most promising future clean fuel. But it appears they do not want to buy it: #energy company #Ørsted canceled plans for an e-methanol production facility due to a lack of offtake agreements. https://industrydecarbonization.com/news/why-no-one-wanted-to-buy-the-green-shipping-fuel.html

Why no one wanted to buy the Green Shipping Fuel

Many shipping companies see e-methanol - made from hydrogen and carbon dioxide - as the most promising future clean fuel. But it appears they do not want to buy it: energy company Ørsted canceled plans for an e-methanol production facility due to a lack of offtake agreements. A weakened EU regulation has likely contributed to the difficulty of selling green shipping fuels.
