CATF ADVOCATES FOR SUPER POLLUTANT EMISSIONS REDUCTIONS LIKE METHANE AROUND THE WORLD BY SUPPORTING SCIENTIFIC RESEARCH, PROMOTING POLICY INITIATIVES, ENCOURAGING THE DEVELOPMENT OF FINANCIAL INCENTIVES FOR POLLUTION CONTROLS, AND CHAMPIONING AND DEFENDING STANDARDS THAT CAN DRAMATICALLY REDUCE EMISSIONS.
OTHER.
ZERO CARBON FUELS - CATF HAS IDENTIFIED SIX SECTORS THAT ARE ESPECIALLY CHALLENGING TO DECARBONIZE, AND FOR WHICH ZERO-CARBON FUELS COULD BE PARTICULARLY ADVANTAGEOUS: MARINE SHIPPING, HEAVY-DUTY LONG-HAUL TRUCKING, IRONMAKING, HIGH-TEMPERATURE INDUSTRIAL PROCESS HEATING, AVIATION, AND LONG-DURATION ENERGY STORAGE. IN ADDITION, BUILDING HEATING IN VERY COLD CLIMATES MAY BE ESPECIALLY DIFFICULT TO FULLY ELECTRIFY DUE TO PEAK GRID LOADS, AND OTHER SECTORS OF TRANSPORT LIKE OFFROAD VEHICLES MAY NOT BE FULLY DECARBONIZED THROUGH ELECTRIFICATION BY 2050. CATF IS EXECUTING ON ITS COMPREHENSIVE, MULTI-FACETED APPROACH WITHIN EACH OF THESE SECTORS WITH RIGOROUS ANALYSIS, PUBLIC POLICY DESIGN, PUBLIC EDUCATION AND ADVOCACY, IDENTIFICATION OF NEEDED INNOVATION INITIATIVES, AND PROMOTION OF DEMONSTRATION PROJECTS SUCH AS HYDROGEN HUBS.

CATF WORKS TOWARDS THIS GOAL BY DEVELOPING AND ADVOCATING FOR POLICIES AIMED AT MAKING CARBON CAPTURE, REMOVAL, AND STORAGE TECHNOLOGIES COST COMPETITIVE WITH USING UNABATED FOSSIL FUELS FOR POWER GENERATION AND FOR USE IN THE INDUSTRIAL SECTOR, GLOBALLY. OUR GOAL IS TO RAPIDLY ACCELERATE THE ADOPTION OF CARBON CAPTURE TECHNOLOGIES TO PREVENT THE EMISSION OF MILLIONS OF TONNES OF CO? FROM POWER GENERATION AND INDUSTRIAL SOURCES AROUND THE WORLD.
