There's something quite absurd about catching CO₂ at a power station.
A more sensible source is at cement factories.
- pfortuny 4y agoI guess he is trying to say: use existent gas stations and/or we might be able to capture all the CO2 therein. But I am not gp, obviously.
- markvdb 4y agoI see a certain elegance rather than absurdity in closed cycle green energy storage. Whether H2, NH3, CH4 or something else, chances are that will require high quality CO2 sources. Both CO2 based electric power plants and cement factories look like excellent candidates. I find the simplicity of compressed CO2 energy storage [0] ten times more elegant, but I'll be happy with any progress towards scalable distributed abundant cheap energy storage.
