As the pressure to act on climate change builds, the future of oil and gas should rely on a range of options.

45 These intermediates can then be converted using traditional chemical conversion technologies like Fischer-Tropsch synthesis to hydrocarbons from synthetic natural gas (SNG) to heavy fuel oil.31 The biochemical conversion of biomass allows for high efficiency conversion to metabolites such as alcohols,...
TotalEnergies is a global multi-energy company that produces and markets energies: oil and biofuels, natural gas and green gases, renewables and electricity. Our more than 100,000 employees are committed to energy that is ever more affordable, cleaner, more reliable and accessible to as many peo...
Pathways to decarbonize the Czech Republic 51 Buildings 2/3 of buildings in the EU are still heated by burning gas, coal, or oil European context In 2017, buildings emitted 490 MtCO2e, accounting for 13 percent of the EU's total...
Energy is either renewable Rt (e.g., solar or wind energy) or fossil fuel (oil, natural gas and coal) Ft. The production function H(.) has constant returns to scale, is concave, and satisfies the Inada conditions. Renewables are subject to learning, so their unit production cost b(Bt...
Energy demand science has its roots in the 1970s, following the first oil shocks. Before then, rising energy demand had been treated as an inalterable feature of a developing economy such that researchers have focused on strategies to supply the ever-increasing need for energy, such as Lovins...
Over 90% of global H2 production relies on non-renewable resources such as natural gas, coal, and oil, which poses environmental challenges. The worst-case emission scenario of 70–170 kg CO2 GJ−1 drops to ∼10–60 kg CO2 GJ−1 with carbon capture-storage [2]. This underscores ...
The target of this work is to produce a vision of the geothermal potential stored in the depleted oil & gas fields in Italy, by using the available information provided by the Ministry of Economic Development, the published data on hydrocarbon fields, and the estimated temperature at depth from...
