Sentences with phrase «if natural gas combustion»

(IEA, 2012) Even if natural gas combustion creates a 50 percent less CO2 per unit of energy produced, an amount which is beyond best case on ghg emission reductions, it will not produce the greater emissions reductions necessary in the next 30 years necessary to give any hope of restricting warming to potentially catastrophic levels.

Even if natural gas combustion creates approaching 50 percent less CO2 equivalent per unit of energy produced, an amount which is well beyond best case on ghg emission reductions, it will not create the much greater emissions reductions necessary in the next 30 years to give any hope of limiting warming from exceeding levels that will cause catastrophic impacts.

Not exact matches

«(B) the nonemissive use, in 2012 or later, of petroleum - based or coal - based liquid or gaseous fuel, petroleum coke, natural gas liquid, or natural gas as a feedstock, if allowances or offset credits were retired for the greenhouse gases that would have been emitted from their combustion; and

If the U.S. were instead to use that natural gas to generate electricity as part of a portfolio with renewable sources of electricity, the analysis shows that «if the entire vehicle fleet were converted to electric vehicles and high efficiency natural gas combined - cycle power plants were used to generate all the additional electricity required, the increase in natural gas demand would be significantly less» than if the entire fleet was burning natural gas in its combustion engines — roughly a decrease in natural gas usage of 19 billion cubic feet per daIf the U.S. were instead to use that natural gas to generate electricity as part of a portfolio with renewable sources of electricity, the analysis shows that «if the entire vehicle fleet were converted to electric vehicles and high efficiency natural gas combined - cycle power plants were used to generate all the additional electricity required, the increase in natural gas demand would be significantly less» than if the entire fleet was burning natural gas in its combustion engines — roughly a decrease in natural gas usage of 19 billion cubic feet per daif the entire vehicle fleet were converted to electric vehicles and high efficiency natural gas combined - cycle power plants were used to generate all the additional electricity required, the increase in natural gas demand would be significantly less» than if the entire fleet was burning natural gas in its combustion engines — roughly a decrease in natural gas usage of 19 billion cubic feet per daif the entire fleet was burning natural gas in its combustion engines — roughly a decrease in natural gas usage of 19 billion cubic feet per day.

In addition if coal combustion were to be replaced now by non-fossil fuel energy, it would help immediately much more than conversion of coal to natural gas combustion does in putting the world on an urgently needed ghg emissions reduction pathway needed to prevent catastrophic warming.

Yet even if there is some short - term benefit from substituting natural gas for coal combustion, there is no ethical basis for doing this without simultaneously aggressively ramping up non-fossil fuel electricity combustion.

In conclusion, we have identified strong ethical arguments that support the need to ramp up non-fossil fuel combustion in the United States and other developed countries while implicitly acknowledging that there could be some short - term benefit if coal combustion is replaced by natural gas, a conclusion that only can be reached with better understanding of the methane leakage issues.
