630 power plants in the United States use #biomass energy. Those plants had a nameplate capacity of 10,722 MW and they generated 52 billion kWh, or about 1.2% of total electricity in the country. spr.ly/6012jByzq
No new pumped storage #hydropower in US since 2012. But 3 proposed projects with a combined capacity of 2.6 GW would boost the 22 GW of current pumped storage capacity. #EnergyStorage @VisualizeEnergy visualizingenergy.org/watch-the-hist…
The largest operating #pumpedstorage facility for #hydropower is the Bath County Pumped Storage Station in Virginia where six turbines combine for 2.9 GW of generating capacity, more than 10% of national total capacity. spr.ly/6016beHYi
#pumpedstorage for #hydropower in the United States was built primarily between 1960 and 1990; nearly half of the pumped storage capacity still in operation was built in the 1970s spr.ly/6018beGWs
By 2022 more than 90% of people in Bangladesh had access to electricity—an amazing accomplishment. But 90% of people in South Sudan lack access to electricity—still work to do. #energyaccess #energytransition #PoweringAfrica @energia_org @SEforALLorg spr.ly/6011b8iOx
Increased access to electricity is a major advance. But sub-Saharan Africa is a glaring reminder that the job is not done. #energyaccess #energytransition #PoweringAfrica @energia_org @SEforALLorg spr.ly/6015b8gDS
Since 1800 #coal accounts for about 39% of all #fossilfuel production in the United States, followed by #naturalgas (33%) and #oil (28%). spr.ly/6010wnHrE

#Oil emerged in the 1860s principally as kerosene that proved to be an effective illuminant. Fuels derived from oil would become the backbone of the global transportation and chemical industries in the 20th century. spr.ly/6017wnGiD
#corn ethanol climate benefits compared to #petroleum fuels have improved due to higher crop yields and energy efficiency. Land use change and other ecosystem impacts must be managed to realize benefits. spr.ly/6015ZQJgb
current research indicates that corn ethanol now has 40% to 50% lower emissions compared to gasoline.
current research indicates that corn ethanol now has 40% to 50% lower emissions compared to gasoline.
🚗 Transportation accounts for 29% of #GreenhouseGas #emissions in the US & 20% globally. Use of #biofuels could reduce such emissions — but they're a contentious subject. More on why in this week's @VisualizeEnergy data story: spr.ly/6014ZQRdo @EPA @ENERGY @IEA
#biofuels produced from cellulosic feedstocks (crop and wood residues, dedicated energy crops) can have large climate benefits compared to #petroleum fuels due to #carbon storage. spr.ly/6011ZQJn3
Most #biofuel pathways reduce #GHG emissions compared to #petroleum fuels, even when land use change is accounted for. spr.ly/6010ZQyfY
The lowest #carbonpricing in 2023 was the US$ 0.079 / tCO2e #carbontax in Poland, while the highest was the US$156 / tCO2e carbon tax in Uruguay. @WorldBank spr.ly/6015ZOBtT
#carbonpricing initiatives in 2023 covered 23% of global #GHGemissions. The three largest in terms of emissions coverage are the ETS of China and the European Union, and Japan’s #carbontax. @WorldBank spr.ly/6014ZOB9g
Why the large number of #biodiesel stations in North Carolina? State Department of Transportation facilities in most counties have biodiesel fueling stations. spr.ly/6012klfbC
Nearly all #renewablediesel is used in California due to the state’s Low Carbon Fuel Standard. spr.ly/6017klf6T
More than half of the nation's ethanol is produced in Iowa, Nebraska and Illinois. Ethanol is a #renewable #biofuel, derived from corn, and used mostly in motor gasoline. In this @VisualizeEnergy data story, explore renewable fuel production across the US: spr.ly/6017ksqGz
I had to do some research to understand the high concentration of #biodiesel stations in the Carolinas. Do you know why? @VisualizeEnergy @BiodieselMag @CleanFuelsAA @biofuelsmag @EBB_Biodiesel visualizingenergy.org/explore-renewa…
