The Background: Coal Gasification Gains Increasing Industrial Attention in India

India holds one of the world’s largest coal reserves, which remains a significant domestic resource for power generation and industrial fuel. At the same time, the country’s chemical and petrochemical sectors rely heavily on imported liquefied natural gas (LNG) and natural gas as feedstock for producing fertilizers, methanol and other downstream chemical products. This dependen

Growing Global Commitment to Biogas and Biomethane Development

As nations accelerate the transition toward renewable energy, biogas and biomethane have become strategic components in achieving carbon neutrality and circular economy goals. The European Union’s REPowerEU Plan targets 35 billion m³ of annual biomethane production by 2030, while similar initiatives in North America and Asia are stimulating new investments in anaerobic digestion and waste-to-ener

Policy Drivers: Tightening Industrial Emissions Regulations

The global industrial sector is experiencing unprecedented regulatory pressure to optimize combustion efficiency and reduce emissions. The European Union's revised Industrial Emissions Directive (IED 2024/1785), effective August 4, 2024, mandates stricter requirements for Large Combustion Plants (LCPs) including gas turbines and boilers with thermal input capacity above 50 MW. The directive introduces “i

Project Background

Brazil is the world’s leading producer and exporter of sugarcane, accounting for approximately 50% of global sugar production. Annually, the country produces around 654.8 million tonnes of sugarcane, 41.25 million tonnes of processed sugar, and 29.7 billion litres of ethanol. The substantial production volume positions Brazil as a global pioneer in biomass energy, particularly through sugarcane bagasse utilization. Hundreds of power plants across th

On May 11th, 2023, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) proposed new carbon pollution standards for coal and natural gas-fired power plants. The proposal would set limits for newly established gas-fired combustion turbines, existing coal, oil and gas-fired steam generating units, and certain existing gas-fired combustion turbines. For different types of turbines, EPA has listed different pathways for these engines to meet the standard of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions reduction.
