Vulcan Energy Resources is a lithium and renewable energy producer, specializing in the production of lithium with a net-zero carbon footprint. The company's stated goal is to decarbonize the transition to electric mobility through its Zero Carbon Lithium™ project. [ 1 ]
The main motivation to replace fossil fuels with renewable energy sources is to slow and eventually stop climate change, which is widely agreed to be caused mostly by greenhouse gas emissions. In general, renewable energy sources cause much lower emissions than fossil fuels. [ 12 ]
Most often, natural gas is the largest source in a given state, with 22 states using it more than any other. Among renewable sources, 18 states use wind power more than any other. Though not always the most prominent source, each state will use at least one source at a rate above the national average.
Sodium-ion batteries are a possible alternative to lithium-ion batteries, as they are less flammable, [28] and use cheaper and less critical materials. They have a lower energy density, and possibly a shorter lifespan. If produced at the same scale as lithium-ion batteries, they may become 20% to 30% cheaper. [26]
Renewable fuels are fuels produced from renewable resources. Examples include: biofuels (e.g. Vegetable oil used as fuel, ethanol, methanol from clean energy and carbon dioxide [1] or biomass, and biodiesel), Hydrogen fuel (when produced with renewable processes), and fully synthetic fuel (also known as electrofuel) produced from ambient carbon dioxide and water.
Last but not least, add Occidental Petroleum (NYSE: OXY) to your list of renewable energy stocks to buy in 2025 and hold for a few decades. OK, it's not a renewable energy stock. Occidental is ...
[29] [30] Although the uranium ore used to fuel nuclear fission plants is a non-renewable resource, enough exists to provide a supply for hundreds to thousands of years. [ 31 ] [ 32 ] However, uranium resources that can be accessed in an economically feasible manner, at the present state, are limited and uranium production could hardly keep up ...
