I live in Saskatchewan--home of the first (boondoggle) carbon sequestration plant. It's output is 150 megawatts--and it takes 50 megawatts to process the co2. They keep having to replace the catalyst that allows the process to happen. I think the figure is on the order of 1 million dollars each time. The plant was supposed to cost 1 billion--but cost over run was 600 million.
They also contracted to supply co2 to North Dakota for oil reserve recovery. They keep missing their target delivery and so hundreds of thousand dollars are spent on fines.
We have ideal conditions for solar here. If they had spent 1.6 billion on solar the province would be selling power to our neighbors to the east, south and west.
I'm still confident that the next vehicle I buy will have a range of over 400 kilometers, be battery powered, and cost less than an internal combustion vehicle. If I do purchase, it will be in the spring of 2024.
But, by then, it may simply be easier and cheaper to use Uber. I'm driving less than 200 kilometers per week (120 miles).
