Today, one of the largest infrastructure companies in North America Kinder Morgan has reached an agreement to acquire Kinetrex Energy, the largest supplier of liquified natural gas (LNG) in the midwestern region and a growing producer and supplier in the renewable natural gas (RNG) market. Kinder Morgan now joins a plethora of companies making their […]
Managing critical mineral supply for the energy transition
Critical minerals are metals and non-metals that are considered vital for the economy and whose supply may be disrupted due to various factors such as supply scarcity, geopolitical risk, environmental factors, recycling potential, and trade policy. Rare earth elements (REEs), lithium, copper, cobalt, nickel, and platinum group metals (PGMs) have become critical minerals as they […]
Scope 3 emissions will challenge decarbonization goals of the chemical industry
We wrote in an earlier blog that the Paris Agreement’s goal to limit global warming to well below 2 °C compared to pre-industrial levels will be challenged by decarbonization of several hard-to-abate sectors. The chemical industry is both one of the largest consumers of energy globally and a hard-to-abate sector. A large portion of carbon […]
“Green premiums”: A new approach to energy transition investments
Nearly two-thirds of global greenhouse gas emissions can be attributed to CO2 from fossil fuel combustion and industrial processes. A report from the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) outlines the potential for emissions to fall to 70% of the current levels over the next three decades but more needs to be done to limit […]
Decarbonization initiatives in the chemical industry
The Paris Agreement’s goal to limit global warming to well below 2 °C compared to pre-industrial levels will be challenged by decarbonization of several hard-to-abate sectors. The chemical industry along with cement, iron and steel, shipping, and aviation are among the hard-to-abate sectors. Hard-to-abate sectors are highly energy-intensive sectors where fossil fuels serve as the […]
Understanding the EV charger infrastructure ecosystem
Electrification of the transportation sector is one of the frontrunners of the energy transition. Electric vehicles (EV) adoption is driven by regulatory pressures and incentives, falling EV prices, technological advancements, and growing availability of EV models. The number of EVs in North America are expected to grow at 25-30% per year through 2030 and although […]
