Green electricity, A technological innovation that Imperial researchers will be developing in the new ‘Planet 2050′ programme
You are at: Oilgae Blog.
Large-scale use of low-carbon electricity is one technological innovation that Imperial researchers will be developing in the new ‘Planet 2050′ programme, being set up to help develop the radical approaches needed to achieve the large-scale global emissions reductions sought by 2050. The programme brings together scientists and engineers from Imperial to work on new technologies that can help the UK dramatically reduce its carbon emissions.
Low carbon electricity is produced using methods that emit minimal carbon dioxide into the atmosphere. These could include wind, tidal, solar or nuclear power, and even fossil fuel or biomass burning power stations that have been designed to capture the emitted carbon dioxide for storage deep underground.
