The Clean Future of Gas
Black & Veatch believes strongly in the value of renewable energy, emerging technologies like CCUS, and natural gas as key contributors to building sustainable infrastructure on a global basis. Today’s high-efficiency natural gas plants deliver huge reductions in carbon dioxide relative to even ultra-supercritical coal-fueled plants. They deliver substantial reductions in emissions compared to gas plants that were built just 20 years ago. And, the growing sense of urgency to curb the effects of climate change will likely spur even more investment and focus on making gas cleaner than it already is.
