Bede is sought after as a keynote speaker at conferences and seminars on climate change and two free reports address coal-based solutions to climate change.
Discusses the vital role of carbon dioxide capture and storage and provides a technology roadmap for future power generation options in Australia.
“Coal is a low cost mainstay of both the developed and developing world, and its use is projected to increase. Because of coal’s high carbon content, increasing use will exacerbate the problem of climate change unless coal plants are deployed with very high efficiency and large scale capture and storage of carbon dioxide is implemented. Carbon capture and storage is the critical enabling technology because it allows significant reduction in carbon dioxide emissions while allowing coal to meet future energy requirements.”
