Any one that thinks the USA is not serious about climate change and carbon capture, and thus is not a viable market for MVTG, please read this. On the other hand, the USDOE already has one 20 year blunder in the Yucca Mountain Nuclear disposal site that NIMBY, Not In My Back Yard, killed in the end. Lucky for the US-DOE MVTG has the solution to NIMBY, which is CCU, Carbon Capture and Utilization, with the MVTG ERC that will make a new generation of liquid fuel cell fuels out of that captured CO2.

Clean renewable energy might be a preferable way to power our gadgets, but it’s not always the easiest to implement on a large scale. The sad truth is that coal and oil are just so darn energy dense and easy to harvest that renewables have had a hard time competing. The energy industry has been saying for years that we shouldn’t worry too much — carbon capture and sequestration (CCS) is going to make traditionally dirty forms of energy much cleaner. Of course, the technology barely worked and several projects ended in abject failure. Now, the US Department of Energy has started construction on a CSS project using proven technology that will be the largest one by far.
All the action is happening at a coal-fired power plant near Houston. With the help of NRG Energy and JX Nippon, the DOE hopes to build a carbon capture system that can get 90% of the carbon dioxide output of coal back into the ground where it can’t affect the climate.
