Cost estimates for BECCS range from $60-$250 per ton of CO 2. [25]It was estimated that electrogeochemical methods of combining saline water electrolysis with mineral weathering powered by non-fossil fuel-derived electricity could, on average, increase both energy generation and CO 2 removal by more than 50 times relative to BECCS, at equivalent or even lower cost, but further research is ...
Various approaches have been proposed or implemented, such as the use of low carbon feedstocks (methanol, ammonia) or hydrogen and electrification with energy storage, construction of ships with lighter materials with high tensile strength, and digital operations for enhanced transport efficiency and container ship packing.

While crude oil and natural gas are also being phased out in chemical processes (e.g. production of new building blocks for plastics) as the circular economy and biobased economy (e.g. bioplastics) are being developed [17] to reduce plastic pollution, the fossil fuel phase out specifically aims to end the burning of fossil fuels and the consequent production of greenhouse gases.

An energy transition is a broad shift in technologies and behaviours that are needed to replace one source of energy with another. [14]: 202–203 A prime example is the change from a pre-industrial system relying on traditional biomass, wind, water and muscle power to an industrial system characterized by pervasive mechanization, steam power and the use of coal.
Logo of the 2021 United Nations Climate Change Conference in Glasgow, where the Glasgow Statement was signed. The Glasgow Statement (sometimes called the Clean Energy Transition Partnership [1]) is an international agreement reached at the 2021 United Nations Climate Change Conference held in Glasgow, United Kingdom.
Group of 20 leaders agreed Saturday to triple renewable energy and try to increase the funds for climate change-related disasters but maintained the status quo with regards to phasing out carbon ...
Fossil fuel companies have heavily promoted CCS, framing it as an area of innovation and cost-effectiveness. [11] Public statements from fossil fuel companies and fossil-based electric utilities ask for “recognition” that fossil fuel usage will increase in the future and suggest that CCS will allow the fossil fuel era to be extended.
