Technologies to combat climate change
Modular floating wind
• Floating wind arrays could be cheaper than onshore
wind farms within ten years.
• Innovations are going to come in floating wind systems,
which is still in its infancy

Broad-spectrum solar
• The cost of solar energy may have by fallen by almost
90% over the past decade
• Systems can utilize the largest spectrum of light give
much higher efficiency.

New battery chemistries
• Lithium-ion (Li-ion) technology has cornered the battery
market.
• This account for 90% of all utility-scale and electric-vehicle
(EV) batteries, and seeing cost reductions of 85%.

Clean hydrogen — blue, then green
• About 95% of the hydrogen used industrially resulting in the
emissions CO2 for every tonne of H2 produced.
• It canbe produced in huge quantities at low prices with
virtually zero emissions.

Carbon-negative technologies
• Biomass such as wood, grass or other organic material,
captures CO2 as it grows.
• Direct-air capture technology, which scrubs CO2 from the air
such carbon-negative technologies may be needed in the
long-term.

Ocean biomass
• The ocean space, which we can explore in terms of solutions
to climate change and the biodiversity issue.
• We can harvest from the oceans in a sustainable way

5G-based smart grids
• The fifth generation of wireless mobile phone technology,
known as 5G, offers super-fast broadband communication.
• It allow remote locations to communicate vast amounts of
data quickly.

Cement-Free Concrete by Carbicrete
• We have a plastics problem, but fewer people realize that
concrete has a large environmental footprint.
• Instead of filling concrete with cement, Carbicrete fills it with
steel slag, a by product of the steel-making process.

Improved Battery Efficiency
• lithium ion battery is the industry standard for electronics and
electric vehicle (EV) batteries, but lithium metal batteries
have the potential to deliver twice the energy density.
