It's a new chapter in the fight to #endclimatechange, and it’s a Wright-brothers-first-flight kind of breakthrough for energy.
The creation of a novel system of power generation is a vanishingly rare event, and it can be transformational too—the last major breakthrough in power was NGCC, and today that produces hundreds of GWs globally, all of which the Allam-Fetvedt Cycle renders functionally obsolete.
THREAD: Overnight, our zero-emission natural gas facility delivered power to the electric grid - the first time anywhere in the world this has been achieved. It's a new chapter in the fight to #endclimatechange. How? (1/)
NET Power’s technology combusts natural gas with oxygen instead of air, and uses supercritical CO2 to generate electricity while inherently capturing leftover CO2. (2/)
This process has turned the carbon problem into a solution. (3/)
