The Last Fuel We’ll Ever Need?
6th March 2025
An interesting approach to creating an artificial ‘fossil fuel’.
I find their approach of trying to keep things as low-cost as possible, without worrying about nominal efficiency, very attractive.
Much of the discussion in the video seems to riff off of the concept “Making energy out of thin air”, and that’s a bit exaggerated. The process depends on inputs of electricity from solar energy and materials like limestone, but compared to the complexities of modern fossil fuel production, it represents (if they can scale it up) a beneficial improvement.
I intend to keep my eye on this company.
