Proven Climate Solutions — A New Book On Accelerating Change
A couple of years ago, BF Nagy contacted me, asking if I would be interested in contributing to a book he was assembling. He already had Bill McKibben, Mark Z. Jacobson and others signed up, so how could I disagree? Fast forward two years, and the book, Proven Climate Solutions: … [continued]
The World Should Be 100% Powered By Renewable Energy Before Nuclear Fusion Is Commercially Competitive
The U.S. Department of Energy announced some big nuclear fusion news this week. It is truly gigantic scientific news, and I don’t intend to downplay the breakthrough at all here. I’m amazed and thrilled U.S. scientists were able to produce net-positive energy for a brief moment in a laser-based nuclear … [continued]
Why Should We Pay Extra for Nuclear Power?
There were a couple of interesting developments in June in regards to electric power. One was that NextEra Energy issued its Investor Conference Report 2022 to its stockholders. Another was a paper from Stanford University, “Low-cost solutions to global warming, air pollution, and energy insecurity for 145 countries,” (LCS study) by … [continued]
Switching The World To Renewable Energy Will Cost $62 Trillion, But The Payback Would Take…
Mark Jacobson and his team have published a renewable energy study in which they argue the payback time is just 6 years.
We Can Have (Just About) Everything We Want For Energy & The Climate
The only things we have to give up are killing people and wrecking the environment. Okay, let’s start with a list of the things we would really like to have for energy and the climate in the year 2050. For many CleanTechnica readers, the list of things we want to … [continued]
Europe’s Current Energy Crisis Was Predictable — And Was Predicted
The implications of fracking bankruptcies, COVID, and the Saudi-Russian price war should have been clear to anyone looking at the space.
Howarth/Jacobson “Blue” Hydrogen Assessment Stronger Than Bauer Et Al’s (Part 2 of 2)
Comparing Jacobson and Howarth’s “blue” hydrogen CO2e emissions paper to Bauer et al’s makes it clear that Jacobson and Howarth are much more correct.
Howarth/Jacobson “Blue” Hydrogen Assessment Stronger Than Bauer Et Al’s (Part 1 of 2)
Comparing Jacobson and Howarth’s “blue” hydrogen CO2e emissions paper to Bauer et al’s makes it clear that Jacobson and Howarth are much more correct.
The Bauer Et Al “Blue” Hydrogen LCA Paper Isn’t Useful In The Real World (Part…
As a contribution to the literature on what will happen in the real world, this is a fairly slight addition, one which is being promoted far beyond its actual merit by the usual suspects.
