They could always try to revisit synthetic fuel methodology as there’s a long history of that in Europe. Can try novel technology, conservation or throwing money at the marketplace. Europe rebuilt from devastation a few times over the last century. I suspect they can deal with energy cost.
- Tagbert 5y agoIt takes a lot of energy to create synthetic fuels. You need a source of that energy.
- snovv_crash 5y agoLiquid fuel from coal is commercially viable. I guess the same would be true for gas.
- jleyank 5y agoIt might be a good way to get a transportable form of solar - use it w/o transmission (or distant transmission) to process solid -> liquid/gas and transport that. Processing the coal might be able to reduce some of the worst environmental effects (sulfur?). They took what looked like an easy solution that would help integrate Russian into the European economy. Not every decision pans out.
