Eon | EV-EON

Ed Miliband, the UK minister in charge of Climate Change and Energy has become EV-EON’s greatest fan by announcing the end of new coal fired power stations without carbon capture and storage (CCS)!

Clearly EV-EON’s ground breaking work demonstrating the viability of CCS has paid off - with fantastic implications for the future of coal and our climate.

The UK Government says that all new coal fired power stations, like ours at Kingsnoth, must capture at least 25% of their emissions. Then if CCS is proved to be technologically and economically viable these power stations will have to increase the amount they capture to 100% by 2025.

EV-EON’s chief executive Paul Golby said following the announcement:

“EON really welcomes this news. By using our innovative EV-EON bottling process which, we think can work, we are now free to build a new generation of coal fired power stations. With 60 million Brits ready to drink our ‘unnaturally carbonated water’ the future of coal is looking pretty rosy”

However there is one dark cloud lurking on the very distant horizon. If CCS is not proven viable by 2020 Ed insists our coal power stations will have to be closed down even if we’ve spent billions building them.

To make sure this doesn’t happen we’ve supplied Ed with an extra tight pair of EV-EON pants. Hopefully he’ll find the pressure round his crutch too intense to close down Kingsnorth and our EV-EON facility once we’re up and polluting.

At last after months of research and testing we have finally launched our new climate saving technology. Our EV-EON Unnaturally Carbonated Water could really save the day and let us keep burning the coal.

Londoners were given a rare treat today as we handed complementary bottles of EV-EON. It’s not often you get to save the world for free!

EV-EON Launch - London Eye

We started out in the shadow of the London Eye and although the weather was quite stormy we received a great reaction. Then under the watch of Big Ben the sun came out and gave us the opportunity to explain how the carbon capture process works. Finally the Houses of Parliament were visited to deliver the ‘message in the bottle’ that with Carbon Capture now in the bag it should give more coal power stations the go ahead.

EV-EON Launch - Big Ben Media

Whilst there we came across some pesky students who were chanting against our proposed coal fired power station at Kingsnorth, so we interrupted and in front of the world’s media explained that it would all be ok because we now have the solution; carbon capture bottled water. They were so impressed they left happy as larry.

Our whistle stop tour ended in London’s most victorious of sites - Trafalgar Square. Despite having the great Nelson by our side we were swarmed by a savage crowd keen for a free climate saving thirst quencher.

Well done carbon capture and storage!
