This is interesting. Using methanol also enables indefinite storage of energy- with the ability to use instantly when needed.
As the global economy prepares for an energy transition that will change the future of energy landscapes, new alternative fuels are coming to the fore. Hydrogen has been gaining traction as a clean alternative fuel as it only emits water upon combustion. However, there are a number of inherent challenges with the production, handling, and consumption of hydrogen with the state of technology today. It is still expensive to produce clean hydrogen from renewable sources. As a gas, hydrogen also requires capital-intensive infrastructure for its storage and transport. Methanol is tomorrow’s hydrogen, today. It is an extremely efficient hydrogen carrier, packing more hydrogen in one simple alcohol molecule than can be found in hydrogen. Being a liquid at ambient conditions, methanol can be handled, stored, and transported with ease by leveraging existing infrastructure that supports the global trade of methanol. Methanol reformers are able to generate on-demand hydrogen at the point of use to avoid the complexity and high cost associated with the logistics of hydrogen as a fuel. Methanol can also be produced from sustainable and green pathways to allow it to be a carrier of low carbon, and potentially carbon-neutral, hydrogen. Learn more about methanol as a hydrogen carrier in this latest infographic developed by MI in collaboration with MI member, Element 1. Key data about methanol as a hydrogen carrier used in this infographic can also be found in Element 1’s white paper titled “The Renewable Methanol Pathway to Green Hydrogen”. https://bit.ly/3Y11VpC #methanol #fuelcells #marine #alternativefuel #renewable #maritime #efuel #energytransition #futurefuel

We're breaking new ground in CO₂ removal. The Wall Street Journal recently featured Arca in its Climate & Energy newsletter, and how we're using mine waste to remove CO₂ from the atmosphere. Thank you Ed Ballard, for helping build awareness about companies and solutions that are fighting the climate change crisis. https://lnkd.in/gJDzJyEt #GreatPlaceToWork #GreatPlaceToRock #CarbonDioxideRemoval #RockingCO2 #environment #climatechange #innovation #climateaction

I've been asked a few times, how we figured out what we are doing. I wish I could say there was a blinding moment of inspiration. But it wasn't that way. I started, like many other "serial" entrepreneurs, with the area I was familiar with - farming. But, this evolved. There was lot of BS around us that we needed to separate from so we could focus. And along the way, we acquired deep knowledge of what would not work, and what could work. What could work became our focus, and today, it is what is working, and is being improved on :-) Here's my note on Medium, if you are interested. https://lnkd.in/eCi6h36y
