Study shows that GHGs from making “blue hydrogen” (made from methane) is more than just burning the methane. “Green hydrogen” (from solar-powered electrolysis of water) is clean, but still too expensive.
The world must act swiftly on another powerful greenhouse gas, methane, to halt the rise in global temperatures, experts warned.
There are two ways to cut GHGs from heating buildings: 1) Insulate, and 2) Convert all heating to electricity (and the electric grid to clean energy only). This is an insulation innovation.
A developer is building wind and solar farms in Wyoming that can power 3/4ths of Los Angeles … and the transmission line from there is blocked by a single rancher … and the federal government! How do you chose between two pluses — renewable energy and protecting wildlife?
Anschutz is building a 732-mile high voltage power line from southern Wyoming to a distribution hub near Las Vegas, destined for Phoenix and Los Angeles. It can supply 3/4ths of Los Angeles’ energy needs with renewable energy.
Things happen fast once you “fix the economics,” Imagine what happens to these curves if carbon pricing were imposed on natural gas!
