to the audi plant in m s land are developing the fuel of the future so called eat gas. this man is leading the company s efforts hammon paying wants to radically reduce the carbon dioxide emissions linked to climate change. were basically using c o two as a raw material to make the gas cars use the gas as fuel that it c o two has returned to the atmosphere during combustion and say it s a cycle with no no you see. missions. here the c o two comes from a neighboring bio gas plant using surplus renewable energy to power electrolysis the c o two is combined with hydrogen from water to produce methane the combustible gas c o two becomes synthetic fuel. has been driving for years because cutting edge fuel sensor
there are nearly one thousand hydro power plants in norway. just about all the electricity generated in norway comes from hydro power it s also very cheap which is important if blue crude is to be competitive. electricity accounts for between forty and sixty percent of the cost of producing synthetic fuel. because norway has plenty of cheap energy bukan up thinks it s the perfect place to upscale blue crude production to industrial dimensions. in addition we need access to. which could also be expensive for us. substantial cost related to investments we are making. when you see the plant the plant
a pioneer in promoting green energy and i saw this i know the morning i wrote this business and saw this article immediately saw the potential for. producing this in high volumes. since. that was the link to it. there are nearly one thousand hydro power plants in norway. just about all of the electricity generated in norway comes from hydro power. it s also very cheap which is important if blue crude is to be competitive. electricity accounts for between forty and sixty percent of the cost of producing synthetic fuel. because norway has plenty of cheaper and your bill energy runs broken up thinks it s the perfect place
crude based gasoline or diesel not only could help replace fossil fuels it could also be carbon neutral. after car powered by our fuel emits as much c o two and water in its exhaust as goes into manufacturing the fuel. it s a closed system and that makes it so environmentally friendly. for. here s how it works you take green energy water and the greenhouse gas e.o. to base all undergoes several reactions to produce blue crude that mixture that s a replacement for crude oil. producing blue crude requires lots of electricity so it needs to come from renewable sources. oslo based entrepreneur broken up heard about sunfire pretty much by chance and was intrigued norway has long been
one thing gas stations wouldn t need to be modified to accommodate it cars wouldn t need to be modified either standard fuel tanks and engines would do just fine. and if they re still. developing a sustainable hydrogen based system will take a long time and a well thought out strategy but i believe it s the only way to go the future of mobility will be converting hydrogen in various forms into fuel for use in combustion engines. that s the kind of thing sunfire likes to hear after years of development work the firm says it s time for blue crew to enter the industrial mainstream. doug says the house however being some resistance. problem is the mental hurdle. some people seem to believe that if the kind of fuel we re working on is approved that would be bad for electro mobility and battery
