good for Biomethane Once we get to 95% electricity from wind/solar, best solution for that last 5% is Biomethane + E-Methane, using existing infrastructure - pipelines, gas storage, generation Generation plant needs freshening up for the back-up role but thats ok www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

For low wind days in UK a good option is E-Methane (along with biomethane) All other options cost too much The advantage of E-Methane is it’s a way to use some of the surplus electricity we will have in the mid 2030’s onwards www.linkedin.com/posts/tjohnb...

Dinosaur era CO2 hunters need to get fitter so they can carry more CO2 www.linkedin.com/posts/tjohnb...

If you read one report about a giant vacuum cleaner taking CO2 ppm from the dinosaur CO2 era and sending it home then make sure it’s this one www.linkedin.com/posts/tjohnb...

Bio-CNG for HGVs is a great long term option, good from EU www.linkedin.com/posts/tjohnb...

We are farmers, harvesting dinosaur era CO2 and sending it home Useful by products from CO2 harvesting include food and fossil free fertiliser www.linkedin.com/posts/tjohnb...

I was interviewed on TEAMS on “gas and data centres in GB”, as if by magic a transcript appears As with all energy projects in GB, it’s all about planning consent. Building gas infrastructure including gas generation plant does not take too long but planning does www.linkedin.com/posts/tjohnb...

In summary, having the electricity price linked to the gas price may well reduce the cost of electricity in the UK in the next 5 years But who knows? podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/c...

Without any coal we rely on gas generation The Govt needs to get its cheque book out and we need to train more gas pipeline engineers www.linkedin.com/feed/update/...

Dinosaur era CO2 capture! www.linkedin.com/posts/tjohnb...

Lots of nonsense about DCs needing more gas gen Why pick on data centres? EVs are exactly like data centres They reduce petrol and diesel consumption but, obviously, they increase gas-fired electricity in the short term www.linkedin.com/posts/tjohnb...

Every new electricity firm demand needs additional back up gas generation with all the gas imported. This is not a difficult concept to understand www.linkedin.com/posts/tjohnb...

The world would be a much darker place if US had banned exploring for onshore oil and gas in 2007 when it looked like there was no more resources to find www.linkedin.com/posts/tjohnb...

speaking at Biomethane conf today in Belfast Am reminded of CCC report which did not promote the only way to make Biomethane economic in NI - displace diesel in HGVs So there’s next to no projects. We need economic delivery of projects to be taken into account www.theccc.org.uk/wp-content/u...

Biomethane is the way to do Direct Air Capture with Mother Nature doing 80% of the heavy lifting It’s a bit like building a hydro generation plant on a mountain instead of on a plain When you think about it, it’s pretty obvious really! industrydecarbonization.com/news/you-wan...

This is obvious when you think about it but probably counter intuitive for people who don’t Batteries don’t cut gas use during a Dunkelflaute like this one — they increase it www.linkedin.com/posts/tjohnb...

The purpose of Green Gas Day is to share useful and valuable information to everyone interested in Biomethane In summary - it’s great, get rid of diesel trucks by 2030, never vent CO2, never burn straw, try not to burn raw biogas! And RC is great! www.cngservices.co.uk/green-gas-da...

New Holland expands alternative fuel line-up with more powerful bio-CNG flagship tractor It’s a great time to work in Biomethane! #greengasday agriculture.newholland.com/en-ie/europe...

“Like any insurance, you hate paying for it. Until the day you really need it” By 2035 when the load factor is <3% all the molecules can be Biomethane and the insurance policy can support the removal of dinosaur era CO2 at the Biomethane production plant www.linkedin.com/posts/tjohnb...

I would allow anaerobic digestion plants which capture the CO2 from the biogas upgrading plant (and send the C home after 50 years or so in the air) to be permitted development They should not need planning consent www.linkedin.com/posts/tjohnb...

From 5 years ago “How about exempting new industrial heat pumps and electrolysis plants from the environmental charges in electricity bills? Without this we are stuck” It was obvious then and is obvious now

Burning straw versus anaerobic digestion battle Its not even close www.linkedin.com/posts/tjohnb...

The UK has shown with EVs that it can lead. Time to apply the same thinking to gas. Local gas is best www.linkedin.com/posts/tjohnb...

Inevitable that something like this will be done to prevent the electricity car crash www.linkedin.com/posts/tjohnb...

How to explain that Bio-CNG is a great way to replace the GHG emissions from diesel? www.linkedin.com/posts/tjohnb...

For dinosaur era CO2 capture by the biomethane industry the Viking project is particularly valuable as it’s very close to the major biomethane areas in East Midlands and East Anglia For UK plc it almost looks like we know what we are doing! www.linkedin.com/posts/tjohnb...

Not forgetting that ice cream and fertiliser are pretty good by-products of the dinosaur era CO2 removal projects underway (this is not Direct Air Capture, its "Biomethane's" version of Direct Air Capture) www.linkedin.com/posts/tjohnb...

€640 million redirected from hydrogen to biomethane: Italy has made a clear choice. Priority is given to a mature solution, immediately operational www.linkedin.com/posts/tjohnb...

This is not a CGI video, it’s real life and a great way to provide demand for Biomethane with CO2 to CCS. Once the CCS facilities are completed (they are in build), the more miles you go, the lower the ppm of H2S in the atmosphere www.linkedin.com/posts/refuel...

“the rain showed no sign of abating and water rose hour by hour till the only dry land was at blackpool and that was on top of the tower”

My company has designed/built the most projects in GB to move 250 bar biomethane by road But we prefer injecting directly into the gas grid and building reverse compression plants. It’s hard to move CH4 by road (though it’s 1/3 rd the cost of moving H2 by road) www.linkedin.com/posts/tjohnb...

President Xi may well be a dinosaur era CO2 hunter! www.linkedin.com/posts/tjohnb...

Its not exactly rocket science and it was inevitable that energy culture wars would eventually lead to this www.linkedin.com/posts/tjohnb...

The dinosaur era CO2 hunter’s fuel of choice. Biomethane, around 10% of the cost of “vacuum cleaner in the air” DAC We are building larger plants with economies of scale and CCS And the golden rules - never burn raw biogas, never vent CO2, never burn diesel www.linkedin.com/posts/tjohnb...

The electricity grid seems to be very vulnerable to bad actors www.linkedin.com/posts/tjohnb...
