Industry: Energy Transition

At the 2022 ADI Forum, Heath DePriest, VP of Emerging Energy at Phillips 66, outlined the company’s green energy vision during the Energy Transition panel, moderated by Uday Turaga, CEO of ADI Analytics. DePriest discussed Phillips 66’s strategic investments in both the molecule and electron sides of energy transition, including electrification, EV charging, battery technology, […]

New regulations allow the sale of higher ethanol blending gasoline this summer, but will this actually increase ethanol demand?

Amine-based solvents are the main technology for industrial CO2 capture, but alternatives exist. ADI is studying the development of these non-amine technologies as CCS grows, implying potential benefits over current methods.

Consumers weary from the pandemic are back traveling driving up jet fuel demand. Even so, sustainability is high on their minds leading aviation, a hard-to-abate segment of the global economy, to embrace sustainable fuels.

Leading operators such as Chevron, ExxonMobil, and Phillips 66 have announced CCS projects across the oil & gas value chain.

Energy transition is driving new interest in biofuels. Hydrothermal liquefaction is an interesting pathway although it needs further development.

The global shipping industry is one of the hard-to-abate industries when it comes to decarbonization. While it constitutes a small share of global CO2 emissions today, it may see astronomical amount of growth if left unchecked. Global shipping industry demand is expected to see a 275% increase by 2050 compared to 2020 levels. To address […]

Amid the global shift away from coal-fired power, the coal industry is attempting to find its place in a new ESG-focused world.

With carbon capture becoming more prevalent in today’s world, CO2 conversion is becoming one of the popular utilization methods for the captured emissions.

Given the IMO’s ambitious goals to halve the shipping industry’s 2050 GHG emissions from 2008 GHG emission levels, shipowners and ship engine manufacturers must carefully consider a broader range of marine fuels for the world’s future fleet, such as ammonia and methanol.

Companies are buying carbon offsets to become “net-zero.” What are the risks and challenges with carbon offsets and do they mitigate climate change?

At the 2022 ADI Forum, Brandon Schwertner, CEO of Priority Power, discussed tailoring energy strategies to meet specific client needs. He emphasized using data science to identify cost-effective electrification solutions, like utility-scale solar projects. Schwertner also addressed energy storage challenges and highlighted the importance of Power Purchase Agreements (PPAs) and demand response in achieving sustainability […]
