There are several hundred GW worth of methane emitted from organic sources that need to be collected. Burning it reduces its net GWP to zero. Gas peakers cost a pittance to build or idle. There is also 500GW of existing hydro. There will also be large stores of hydrogen derivatives like ammonia because electrolysers can be used as seasonal arbitrage for easily stored intermediates.
The only people who claim it is a problem are pro fossil fuel and pro nuclear reactionaries and shills.
- BurningFrog 4y agoSounds like you have decent plan. I could also come up with one. My point is that neither will be implemented.
- Schroedingersat 4y agoAll of the things I mentioned are being implemented. More than likely $20/kWh batteries will make them obsolete before they're fully rolled out, but landfill and wastewater gas collection is necessary, as is green ammonia.
