However, its future potential uses are significantly limited by scarcity and cost, as well as the fact that platinum readily binds with carbon monoxide, which «poisons» the desired reactions, for example in polymer electrolyte membrane (PEM) fuel cells, which are the leading contenders for small - scale and mobile power generation not based on batteries or combustion engines.

Furthermore, the relatively quick process of converting coal - fired plants to biomass - fired generation is an attractive benefit for power generators whose generation assets are no longer viable as coal plants due to the expiration of operating permits or the introduction of taxes or other restrictions on fossil fuel usage or emissions of GHGs and other pollutants.

Cuesta's reference to director Alan Pakula, killed on the L.I.E. and responsible for a trio of seminal paranoia thrillers in the seventies (Klute, The Parallax View, All the President's Men), gains an increased level of resonance as the cinema of that decade was a reflection of another generation's loss of innocence — one fuelled by the triple - assassinations of JFK, RFK, and Martin Luther King, the gulf created by the free - love and flower - power movements, and the psychological tumult of Vietnam.

With the industry focused on boosting fuel economy, the next Vette will likely loose some weight and get a new generation of the small - block V8 with direct injection to get more power from less displacement and better fuel economy.

The issue is that manufacturers are scrambling to meet Corporate Average Fuel Economy ratings, and the gear ratio on the Power Wagon has changed from 4.56 to 4.10 despite being heavier than the previous generation truck, to eke out every last mile per gallon.

The added gears offer better fuel economy, a harder punch off the line, and greater passing power on the 4th generation RX.

Footnote * It's worth noting that Peter Raven was one of dozens of signatories to a 2014 «open letter to environmentalists on nuclear energy» endorsing this statement: «the full gamut of electricity - generation sources — including nuclear power — must be deployed to replace the burning of fossil fuels, if we are to have any chance of mitigating severe climate change.»

To pave the way for a new generation of nuclear power plants, we must provide greater certainty on issues from licensing to responsible management of spent fuel.

In the absence of being able to make that policy call at this time on dangerous interference, what we're doing as an interim measure is working bottom up to see how aggressive can we be in finding a pathway to low - carbon power generation from coal, because that accounts for more than 50 percent of emissions; how aggressive can we be in transitioning to a much greater diversity of fuel supply than petroleum, and vehicle technology, and that's 20 percent of emissions; and then what can we do much more rapidly to halt deforestation, which is 20 percent of emissions.

Consequently with the dramatic decrease in efficiency of fuel burn in the standby fossil fuel generators there is sweet FA practical reduction in CO2 emissions with the introduction of wind and solar power generation systems particularly when the energy costs of the producing and building the so called renewable energy systems are added to the grossly inefficient running of the ready to go to full generation capacity in minutes, fossil fuel powered standby generators which in many cases must be kept running at low or zero power generation to be able to come on line in minutes when the so called renewable energy systems fail to produce power,

In January 2013, EEI published a playbook detailing how distributed solar energy generation is a threat to the utility industry's business model which in large part relies on large, costly fossil fuel power plants.

The report calls for greater debate about biofuels before ploughing headlong into a completely biofuel - powered society, although it focuses mainly on first generation fuels, unlike the Science papers.

And as the English have done and as the Chinese and the Indians and etc will still do, they will use coal, lots of coal plus gas and oil for power generation until some capitalist somewhere with a very good idea on how to reduce costs and still make a fortune comes along and devises / discovers or restructures an old technology or a new power generation technology that is more efficient, lower cost, more profitable, just as reliable as fossil fueled, those coal, oil and gas generators

However, you don't want to argue for a rational solution — i.e. cheap nuclear power (which also happens to be 10 to 100 times safer than our currently accepted main source of electricity generation, fossil fuel) and also happens to be a near zero emission technology (in fact much lower than renewables given they need fossil fuel backup, and given solar needs about 10 times as much material per TWh on an LCA basis).

If power generator owners and governments had decreed that the most inefficient and most unreliable, most costly power generation systems that could be conceived to generate power for our modern civilisation were to be the norm then the so called renewable energy systems of wind and solar along with highly inefficient fossil fuel burning idling generators as standby's when the renewables fail to produce power then it is doubtful that a more hopelessly inefficient and unreliable system could be devised for a civilisation that depends so utterly on having dead steady, totally reliable, at call power every second of every day to run that civilisation's entire very sophisticated structures

Sarah Jane Ahmed, an energy expert for US - based think tank Institute for Energy Economics and Financial Analysis (IEEFA), wrote a study in 2017 on how small islands in the Philippines can effectively replace outdated, polluting diesel fuel electricity - generation systems with solar and wind - powered grids.

And this same period saw the expansion of fossil fuel burning from the traditional family needs like heating / cooking, then on to quickly power - up both modern modern agriculture and also the industrial - mass production revolution in manufacturing industries, and finally the large - scale generation of ubiquitous electrical power, eventually distributed into nearly every home and business in the industrialized societies, with close to 24x7x365 availability.

... Because fossil - fuel power plants can not easily ramp down generation in response to excess supply on the grid, on sunny, windy days there is sometimes so much power in the system that the price goes negative — in other words, operators of large plants, most of which run on coal or natural gas, must pay commercial customers to consume electricity....

Impacts of California's Five - Year (2012 - 2016) Drought on Hydroelectricity Generation — This comprehensive assessment of the costs to California of lost hydroelectricity during the five - year California drought (from October 2011 to the end of September 2016; the official California «water year» runs from October 1 to September 30) reveals an increase in electricity costs of approximately $ 2.45 billion, as well as a 10 percent increase in the release of carbon dioxide from California power plants due to the additional combustion of fossil fuels for electricity gGeneration — This comprehensive assessment of the costs to California of lost hydroelectricity during the five - year California drought (from October 2011 to the end of September 2016; the official California «water year» runs from October 1 to September 30) reveals an increase in electricity costs of approximately $ 2.45 billion, as well as a 10 percent increase in the release of carbon dioxide from California power plants due to the additional combustion of fossil fuels for electricity generationgeneration.

The Center for Innovative & Sustainable Society Creation of Meijo University in Aichi Prefecture announced on January 19, 2018, that they succeeded in power generation using weed - derived methane, which can directly fuel a gas engine.

The plan errs by placing its focus on preventing fuel supply disruptions at larger power plants and ignores the potential resiliency benefits of fuel - free, distributed generation such as wind and solar, clean energy advocates said.

To be viable solar generation plus transmission plus storage would have to provide reliable power on demand, 24/367 and the total costs would have to be cheaper than fossil fuels and nuclear.

Due to rich oil and coal resources, power generation is based primarily on fossil fuels.

Using the latest available national data on power generation, this most recent look at data on annual and quarterly electricity generation nationwide from the Energy Democracy Initiative at ILSR illustrates how small - scale, distributed solar energy stacks up against its big, fossil fuel and utility - scale renewable energy competitors.
