There comes a point when simply standing by and watching becomes morally unacceptable.

Although it is not yet clear whether there is a single 1GWh #Vanadium #Flowbattery in this or if it is 'only' 800 MWh. It's still another 4,000 tonnes of Vanadium taken out of circulation, in addition to the 5,000 for the previous 1GWh battery

Great article. Really shows CCS as the emperor's new clothes that it is.

HELLO FRIENDS: I wrote a big, hearty summary of the current state of carbon capture, off the back of COP28's poison pill inclusion of this delay tactic in an official text

CCS works by not working: a failure bomb with a huge blast radius.

here's a thread for ya!

a chart of very low projected new CCS compared to the IEA's very high assumptions

The world's first 1 GWh #Vanadium #Flowbattery is proposed.

Could be the first of many.

"There’s a common misconception that we are committed to decades or centuries more global warming from CO2 already in the atmosphere, no matter what we do now. Happily, current science says this is not true"

History Decades Centuries Anthropogenic CO2 emissions (GtCO2/yr) If globally we stop emitting CO2 into the atmosphere Atmospheric CO₂ concentrations (ppm) The concentration of CO₂ in the atmosphere will gradually decline Heat uptake in the ocean (ZJ/yr) Global surface temperature change (K) ← The ocean will continue to take up heat, but this uptake will slow down and become zero over time The difference in global temperature increase between the time when net zero CO2 emissions are achieved and a specified time in the future is referred to as the ZERO EMISSIONS COMMITMENT (ZEC) ↓ Our current best estimate is that global surface temperature would not increase further - But there is a range of possible temperature change Global sea level rise (m) Meanwhile, some other parts of the Earth system continue to change over multiple centuries in response to the perturbation human activities have caused (e.g. continued sea level rise).

Congratulations to Prof Sarbajit Bannerjee, who along with David Santos, Manish Dixit and Pranav Kumar was awarded the @iom3 #Vanadium award.

Here's a link on their seminal paper on the importance of V to the #EnergyTransition
