TITLE: R&D UPDATE

TITLE: Dr VIJAY SWARUP

TITLE: Vice President R&D ExxonMobil

TITLE: THE BIGGEST CHALLENGE FOR REDUCING EMISSIONS IS SCALE

VJ: My role is responsible for coordinating the R&D portfolio.

VJ: The biggest challenge with reducing global emissions is one of scale.

VJ: The electrification of cars and light duty vehicles is going to play a big role.

TITLE: ELECTRIC VEHICLES ARE A COMPONENT

VJ: The electric vehicle is a component of a system that has

TITLE: OF A SYSTEM THAT HAS SCALABLE ENERGY WITH LOWER EMISSIONS

VJ: scalable energy with lower emissions.

VJ: But there’s going to be a point where energy density is needed.

TITLE: BUT WE ALSO NEED LOWER CARBON FUELS

VJ: So what you’re going to be looking for is lower-carbon fuels.

VJ: We are looking at biofuels: algae and cellulosic.

TITLE: WE ARE LOOKING AT BIOFUELS ALGAE AND CELLULOSIC

VJ: Next-generation fuels.

TITLE: FOR AIRPLANES, TRUCKS AND SHIPS

VJ: And that’s for airplanes, that’s for large trucks, that’s for ships.

VJ: It has to be scalable and globally deployable.

TITLE: ALGAE CAN BE SCALED

VJ: Algae grows in brackish water, so it’s not competing for land for food.

TITLE: IT DOESN’T COMPETE FOR LAND FOR GROWING FOOD

VJ: Or for water that’s used for irrigation.

TITLE: CELLULOSIC MATERIAL IS AGRICULTURAL MATERIAL LEFTOVER AFTER THE HARVEST

VJ: Cellulosic material, which is agricultural waste, if you will.

VJ: The material that’s left after you’ve harvested the food.

VJ: That has potential to also provide biofuels.

VJ: Those two together could provide the low-emission fuels

VJ: for the transportation sector.
