As the world moves to a more sustainable future and is advancing ways to reduce greenhouse gases and limit the effects of climate change, direct air capture (DAC) is one process being developed and deployed to remove CO2 from the atmosphere along with other efforts to reduce emissions. This industry is still in its infancy […]
The forgotten renewable: A review of geothermal energy
In the discussions of renewable energy, much of the conversation usually revolves around wind and solar. Often overlooked is the energy beneath our feet, geothermal, so much so that it is sometimes called the “forgotten renewable”. Geothermal, however, is a vast, largely untapped resource capable of supplying our power needs; in fact, it is estimated […]
Mother nature will provide: Natural climate solutions for energy markets
Numerous companies are making net-zero pledges, with over 30% of the world’s largest companies committing to become net-zero in the coming decades. Some commitments are more ambitious than net-zero, such as Microsoft’s pledge to offset all their carbon emissions since its inception. One of the most affordable and easily accessible ways to achieve these promises […]
Modeling oil & gas, chemical, and petrochemical industry greenhouse gas emissions
Oil and gas companies are making decarbonization commitments that include mainly cutting Scope 1 and Scope 2 greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions although they are under growing pressure to also cut Scope 3 emissions. To this end, there is growing interest in understanding and benchmarking GHG emissions across the value chain from exploration and production through […]
A cleaner natural gas value chain: IRA’s Methane Emissions Reduction Program
The Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) offers tax credits to advance clean-energy initiatives and reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. While there are incentives for everything from carbon capture through electric vehicles to renewable energy and hydrogen production, there are some penalties. The federal government’s first-ever greenhouse gas (GHG) emission fee is part of the new law’s […]
Greener skies: Part II: A jet fuel and sustainable aviation fuel market outlook
We discussed the COVID-impact on aviation, regulatory drivers of decarbonization in aviation, and several commitments and investments made by airlines globally in the previous blog. In this blog, we will discuss how growing supply, techno-economic advancements, and feedstock supply will drive global sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) demand growth. There are several ways to manufacture SAF […]
German energy markets: Between a rock and a hard place
Energy prices have soared throughout Europe since the beginning of the year. The crisis is particularly acute in the EU’s largest economy, Germany, which relies heavily on Russian gas for its economy. Recent events have exacerbated the problem and the German government is taking actions to combat the effects of the crisis on its people […]
Permitting reform for energy infrastructure
On September 21st, 2022, U.S. Senator Joseph Manchin (D-WV) released the text of his permitting reform legislation, the Energy Independence and Security Act. Democratic leadership agreed to include energy infrastructure permitting reform in a continuing resolution (CR) to extend government funding before the end of the fiscal year on September 30 to win Senator Manchin’s […]
Going Blue: Growing progress across the CCUS value chain
Carbon, capture, utilization, and storage (CCUS) is a complex value chain that requires progress in each segment to enable a global energy transition successfully. The four segments of the CCUS value chain, capture, transportation, storage, and use- are seeing varying level of progress. Capture should work more efficiently with power plants, and their CO-concentrated streams […]
Artificial lift accelerates in the shale patch
As the shale patch enjoys the current upswing in commodity prices and prepares to supply the marginal barrel of demand growth, operators have significantly accelerated the adoption of artificial lift options. Through a mix of primary research conducted with oil & gas operators in the Permian, Bakken, Eagle Ford, and the Rockies, coupled with extensive […]
