“[Some] efficiency comes by operating only when renewable power [is cheap]. By running at ideal times, the process avoids extreme energy expenses typical to power-to-liquid operations. What's more, the strategic electricity use doesn't strain the grid and avoids competition for valuable electricity”
Having long advocated for “seasonal" energy use, this is marvelous to see.

I get very very anxious when solutions costs vast amounts of money with no guaranteed outcome.
If #BigOil and #BigMoney want to rid themselves of cash so badly, there are better ideas.
Besides
it means a capitulisation to ideas like #ConsumeLess and a more frugal living.
Do you really need all that plastic and electronic gadgets that need the exploitation of the #EArth and people?
But lets just have a think:

"Mar 16, 2025
Carbon Capture and Storage has been heralded by some as the 'silver bullet' to enable a smooth transition to renewable energy while preventing existing greenhouse gas emissions reaching the atmosphere, or even, in the case of Carbon Dioxide Removal (CDR), actually sucking CO2 back out of the air. But recent studies have shown these to be a completely false economy and yet another ruse by the fossil fuel industry. So, who should we believe?"

Carbon-negative cement and steel are here. At CC&C, we're validating modular CO₂ capture systems that cut emissions up to 85%, under $100/ton, with minimal energy use. Real solutions, real impact —today.

Which tree species fix the most carbon?

EurekAlert!Which tree species fix the most carbon?To answer this important question, an international consortium of scientists, coordinated by INRAE and Bordeaux Sciences Agro, studied the growth of 223 tree species planted in 160 experimental forests in different parts of the world. They found that conservative species, which are the most efficient at conserving their resources (nutrients, water, energy), generally grow faster in forests. These findings, which are available to forest managers and were published in Nature, highlight the central role of local conditions in tree growth.

#Peatlands' potential to capture carbon upgraded as temperatures rise
https://www.eurekalert.org/news-releases/1077601 #science #ClimateCatastrophe #carbonCapture #environment #ecology #wetlands
EurekAlert!Peatlands' potential to capture carbon upgraded as temperatures riseAccording to a predictive model developed by a CNRS researcher1 and his European colleagues, the microalgae present in peat bogs could offset up to 14% of future CO2 emissions, thanks to their photosynthetic activity2. This conclusion was reached by basing the work on in situ experiments and the various predictive scenarios established by the IPCC. It is the first model to quantify the potential compensation of future CO2 emissions by peatlands on a global scale. This result lifts the veil on a currently ambiguous section of the terrestrial carbon cycle3 and its alterations by anthropogenic climate change. The associated study is published in Nature Climate Change.
