Climate Change, Carbon Taxes, and the Perspective Not Many Talk About

Climate change is no longer just a scientific discussion, it’s an economic weapon, a political tool, and a personal cost for many.

At PRV Engineering, we don’t take sides in ideological debates. We do, however, deal in facts, systems, and solutions but when the facts are being manipulated, or profit is being prioritised over people, it’s time we all take things a little more seriously.

Because yes, the climate is changing.
And yes, humans have made it worse.
But no, the current response isn’t entirely about saving the planet.

It’s also about controlling the narrative, taxing the symptoms, and engineering a new economy based on fear.

Artificial Photosynthesis

Nature has always been humanity’s greatest teacher, and this is especially evident in the pursuit of sustainable energy. Introducing artificial photosynthesis—a groundbreaking innovation that could completely change our approach to clean energy. If successful, this could unlock a future powered by clean hydrogen, solar-converted fuels, and advanced carbon capture solutions.

CO2 Heat Pump

The world’s largest CO2 heat pump has officially begun operations in Denmark, marking a significant milestone in renewable energy heating systems. This cutting-edge seawater heat pump facility, located at the Port of Esbjerg, is capable of generating an impressive 70 MW of energy, enough to heat 25,000 homes annually. The project not only represents a leap forward in sustainable heating solutions, but also serves as a model for cities worldwide to achieve decarbonisation in their heating infrastructure.

Battery Storage to Boost Grid Stability at Zeewolde Wind Farm

Battery storage is set to play a pivotal role in the sustainable energy landscape of the Netherlands. Rolls-Royce has received an order from Battery Park Zeewolde (BPZ) to supply a large-scale battery storage system. This system, featuring an output of 32.6 Megawatts and a storage capacity of 65.2 Megawatt hours, is scheduled to be operational by summer 2025. This initiative highlights the incredible strides being made towards sustainable energy storage and grid stability.

Last week we wrote about potential nuclear fusion plants for the UK and what a positive impact they could have on the economy and environment. Staying on the topic of cleaner energy, former SpaceX engineers are developing the first-ever portable nuclear microreactors. These devices could deliver power to remote areas while the quick installation process makes them ideal for populated areas as well.

Scientists first demonstrated the incredible power of nuclear energy around 70 years ago, but nuclear fusion remained out of reach. As promising as it proves to be, the necessary technology to develop and build viable nuclear fusion power plants haven’t quite reached us, or has it?

Over the next few decades, the world’s energy landscape as we know it will change dramatically. One decisive change is the ever-growing demand for power which brings about the need for new and better energy innovations.

Wherever there is an increase in access to reliable and affordable energy, people want to enjoy a higher standard of living. While that is certainly a good thing, at the same time, many of the world’s population lack access to even the most basic energy services.

Our existing energy market has been in development for over a century and changing it to renewable energy is no easy feat. Among other factors, it requires incredibly large capital investments and thus far, renewable energy has reached 21.6%. It was further explained during the One Planet Summit in December 2017, when U.N. Secretary-General Antonio Guterres said: “Finance is the key to successful climate action.”

Even so, why is the adoption of renewable energy lacking on a global scale? It’s certainly not for a lack of wanting a cleaner life or to improve the world for future generations. Instead, market conditions slowing the development of
