    TUHO: welcome carbon bubble?

    A recent attempted sale illustrates the increasing challenge of selling oil assets. When BP tried to sell two stakes in North Sea fields to Premier Oil, it slashed its price by two-thirds in negotiations, to $205 million, only to see the deal collapse entirely late last year when Premier hit financial difficulties.

    BP Chief Executive Bernard Looney, who took office in February 2020, is gambling that BP can make the clean-energy transition much faster than its peers. Last year, he became the first major oil CEO to announce that he would purposely cut future production. He aims to slash BP's output by 40%, or about 1 million barrels per day, an amount equal to the UK's entire daily output in 2019. At the same time, BP would boost its capacity to generate electricity from renewable sources to 50 gigawatts, a 20-fold increase and equivalent to the power produced by 50 U.S. nuclear plants. (For a graphic on BP's clean-energy investment plans, see https://tmsnrt.rs/3fbaCJP)

    To hit those targets, Looney plans $25 billion in fossil-fuel asset sales by 2025. That's equivalent to about 13% of the company's total fixed assets at the end of 2019. Under his watch, BP has already sold legacy projects worth about $15 billion. In addition to the Oman deal, Looney unloaded oil and gas fields in Alaska and the North Sea and sold off BP's entire petrochemical operation, which produced a $402 million profit in 2019.

    GOJATLA: myslim, ze nemas dostatek predstavivosti a zamerujes svoje argumenty jen na jeden konkretni zpusob ccs, kterej verejne selhava (prefiltrovavat celou nasi atmosferu vetrakama).

    Prikaldem ccs (i kdyz tohle uz je mozna na pomezi ccus), ktery muze rentabilne a dlouhodobe fungovat je napr.:

    https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2020/oct/30/ecotricity-founder-to-grow-diamonds-made-entirely-from-the-sky

    Ale uznavam, ze ccs se bude muset pri masovym nasazeni ekonomicky opirat bud o dotace, nebo naopak vynosy z emisnich povolenek (ktery nevycerpaj), nebo regulaci. Duvodem je to, ze je to nadbytecnej krok v procesu vyrobku a "trvale uskladneni odpadniho produktu" se da tezko zpenezit, podobne jako uskladneni jadernyho odpadu.

    U ccus pak muze bejt situace jina. Utilizace uhliku/co2 muze v budoucnu i vynaset, zalezi na finalnim vyrobku/hodnote/marzi.

    Dneska tezko soudit, maximalne se muzeme bavit o dojmech.

    The record of 59.6 per cent was set at 11.55am on Sunday, when the share of wind and solar alone reached a record 57 per cent, and would likely have easily been more than 80 per cent had numerous wind and solar farms not switched off or dialled down output due to negative prices.
    Indeed, total wind and solar curtailment around that time amounted to around 3.5GW, according to NEMLog, compared to total large scale wind and solar capacity producing at the time of around 5.7GW.
    Still, the new benchmark easily beats the 58.3 per cent record set just after noon on Thursday, September 9, which was interesting because that record was established on a weekday when demand is generally higher due to more industrial activity.

    SHEFIK: Source CCS dává smysl fyzikálně, ale ne ekonomicky, proto ho nikdo nezavádí a nezavede. Smyslem CCS je vytvořit falešnou naději, "je ok, že budeme ještě 30 let vypouštět CO2, protože pak ho zase dostaneme pod zem". Nedostaneme.

    Why Capturing Carbon from the Air Will Always Be Expensive - by Aatish Bhatia - The Rate of Change
    https://rateofchange.substack.com/p/why-capturing-carbon-from-the-air

    Because CO₂ is a trace gas in the atmosphere, extracting carbon from the air is like panning for gold — to extract 1 tonne of CO₂, you need to sift through over 2,000 tonnes of air — and this makes carbon capture unavoidably expensive & inefficient.

    So physics teaches us two things about the cost of pulling CO₂ from the air.

    It can go down somewhat.

    It’s still really expensive.

    Current estimates place the cost of capturing carbon between $200 and $1,000 per tonne of CO₂. To put that number in context, it would cost the entire US GDP (give or take a factor of 2) to recapture one year’s carbon emissions with existing technology.
