To achieve net-zero, we need to harness renewable energy more efficiently. That’s why our team at Emvolon is working to overcome grid limitations and accelerate renewable energy deployment through ARPA-E's GREENWELLS program. ⚙ Our project aims to repurpose internal combustion engines into modular chemical synthesis plants, capable of load following intermittent renewable power and converting it into liquid fuels like methanol. 🛳 ✈ Methanol offers easy storage and transport, and can be upgraded for use as fuel in hard-to-abate sectors like maritime and aviation. 🔧 With a modular design and mass-produced hardware, Emvolon can deliver efficient conversion and compelling economics at the right scales for renewable power. #greenfuels #methanol #decarbonization #emissions Discover more: https://lnkd.in/g2H8CFtW #ARPAEGREENWELLS

The current EPBD proposal’s definition of a “zero-emission building” is focusing only on on-site renewable energy generation and renewable energy from the grid. This excludes a viable range of innovative renewable energy solutions that citizens could benefit from. Renewable liquid gases (such as rLPG, bioLPG and rDME) are viable, future-proof energy sources for buildings that will be excluded unless the proposed legislation is changed.

Did you know Power-to-X technology is crucial for a renewable energy future? Power-to-X, or #PtX, refers to all procedures that transform renewable energy into chemical energy carriers for electricity storage, electricity-based fuels for transportation, or raw materials for the chemical industry. 🔋 Power-to-X can be used, for instance, to produce hydrogen to power fuel cell on zero-emission vehicles. Chemical energy carriers, such as renewable hydrogen and ammonia, are produced with renewable electricity and offer a practical solution for storing energy long-term. Variants like power-to-gas, power-to-liquid, and power-to-heat are adopted, depending on the application. By utilizing electrolysis, a process by which electric current is passed through a substance to effect a chemical change, and CO2 recycling, Power-to-X offers carbon-neutral alternatives that can reduce industrial emissions and provide cost-effective energy storage solutions. The widespread implementation of power-to-x technologies across various industries is necessary to achieve #decarbonization, combat climate change and limit global warming. As we shift away from fossil fuels, renewable energy sources like wind, solar, and hydro are taking their place. 🔃 #tuvsud #sustainability #hydrogen #electrolysis

Driving Innovation in Green Hydrogen & Ammonia Projects | Expert in e-Methanol, Bio-Methanol | Sustainable Energy Leader | Power2X Specialist
🚀 The Renewable Methanol Breakthrough? 🚀 In my last post, I uncovered the hidden hydrogen dilemma in bio-methanol production. Now, here’s the twist: what if we combined bio-methanol with e-methanol in one integrated process? 🤯 Why is this so smart? It's a double win for efficiency, especially with the extra oxygen from the electrolyzer—supercharging your business case! But there’s a catch… 🎯 The Big Challenge: Gasifier Load Flexibility. For off-grid setups, you’ll need a hefty renewable energy storage to keep your gasifier steady, but oversizing comes at a cost—and that means a higher levelized cost of methanol. Ouch! 😬 Grid-connected? The grid helps balance things out, but when RE is low, you're playing with grey methanol—an added layer of complexity! 🔑 The Silver Lining? Regions with a high renewable share are in the sweet spot. For others? It’s all about finding that perfect balance between renewable power and gasifier stability. But here’s the kicker: even after you’ve locked in a great offtaker deal, there’s still one puzzle to solve—how do you differentiate bio-methanol from e-methanol in the final product? Stay tuned—I’ll break it all down soon! 💡 Is co-processing the game-changer we’ve been waiting for in renewable methanol? Drop your thoughts below! 👇 #RenewableMethanol #BioMethanol #EMethanol #HydrogenEconomy #CleanEnergy #Sustainability #Gasification #Decarbonization #FutureOfEnergy

e-NG: A Green Molecule that may the Energy Transition’s Main Challenges 🌿 The Concept of Electric Natural Gas (e-NG) Electric Natural Gas, or e-NG, refers to synthetic natural gas produced from renewable electricity. The process involves using electricity to split water into hydrogen and oxygen via electrolysis. The hydrogen is then combined with carbon dioxide from CO2 capture projects through a methanation process to produce methane, which is chemically identical to natural gas. A brief comparative analysis for the green molecules: · e-NG is the most cost-effective and scalable in terms of storage and transportation, thanks to the existing natural gas infrastructure. · Green Hydrogen faces high costs and significant infrastructure challenges but offers a direct path to hydrogen economy benefits. · Green Ammonia provides a practical middle ground, leveraging existing ammonia infrastructure for storage and transportation, with the added complexity of conversion costs when used as a hydrogen carrier. · Green Methanol is a cost-effective and scalable solution, benefiting from existing liquid fuel infrastructure, but considerations for toxicity and flammability are crucial. This comparison highlights the trade-offs between these four options, focusing on cost, infrastructure readiness, and scalability, aiding in decision-making for green transition strategies. Investing in e-NG projects makes strategic sense due to the ability to leverage existing natural gas infrastructure, ensuring a cost-effective, reliable, and smooth transition to a greener energy future. The technological maturity, combined with significant environmental benefits and policy support, positions e-NG as a key player in the sustainable energy landscape. By integrating e-NG into the existing energy framework, we can achieve a more resilient and sustainable energy system, driving both economic and environmental progress. #GreenEnergy #SustainableFuture #PowerToGas #RenewableEnergy #CarbonNeutral #SyntheticMethane #EnergyTransition #eNG #CleanTech #TES
