At the very least, utilities will need plans that can get them most of the way there, while rushing ahead with next-generation technologies: long-duration energy storage, small modular nuclear reactors or green hydrogen and methane to fuel natural gas peaker plants. The latter category has grown by about 6,500 megawatts since 2012.

.” More recently, Morano has been talking about whales—specifically, the idea that the higher-than-usual number of dead ones washing ashore along the East Coast is the result of President Joe Biden’s push to develop 30 gigawatts of offshore wind power by the end of the decade. One of those names is John Droz.

When InvestigateWest launched the Getting to Zero: Decarbonizing Cascadia series in January 2021, the latest official data showed that emissions of carbon dioxide, methane, and other greenhouse gases had risen steadily from 2012 to 2018, and the region wasn’t on track to make big cuts this decade. “We

Shell has been using this process in their Pearl installation since 2012. Given our lack of knowledge on this specific topic, we cannot state with confidence the energy required to create a metric ton of synthetic fuel, whether it would be methane or diesel. The reason? No surprise there. This of course is not the case.

Given our lack of knowledge on this specific topic, we cannot state with confidence the energy required to create a metric ton of synthetic fuel, whether it would be methane or diesel. For methane it is close, as you would need 1 C atom and 4 hydrogen atoms.
