Innovations in End Use Technologies Are Vital to the Future of Natural Gas Use, According to a Gas Research Institute Report on Behalf of the American Gas Foundation; Implementation of Research Plan Will Curb Emissions, but Vision Requires $400 to $500 Million in Funding

摘要

The American Gas Foundation's Executive Director, Jay Copan, unveiled the latest report designed to raise the visibility of natural gas as the energy-efficient, low-carbon fuel of choice in the U.S. The study, entitled Natural Gas End Use: A Vision for Today and the Future, was conducted by the Gas Technology Institute (GTI) and focuses on natural gas end-use technologies and their possible contribution to making gas a better energy resource from an environmental standpoint through 2030. The report's comprehensive overview of current and ongoing developments does leave unanswered th equestion of where the funding ultimately would come from to provide between $ 400 and $ 500 million by 2020 that would make the potential actual.
