Hydrogen and CCUS are 5% of long-term emissions cuts, says Rystad | Hydrogen
Carbon capture utilisation and storage (CCUS), bioenergy and hydrogen are set to play only a small part in cleaning up global emissions, according to research firm Rystad Energy. In a comprehensive global energy scenario report, it found decarbonising and growing the power sector through nuclear and established renewables will likely account for 52% of reductions and electrification of “almost everything” will provide 43%. “The final 5% is achieved by tackling residual emissions in hard-to-abate sectors through CCUS, hydrogen, and bioenergy,” it notes. “These are referenced in a rising number of national determined contributions, and projects are underway, but deployment remains modest compared to renewables and electrification. Long-term success depends on scaling these technologies far beyond their current footprint.” It forecasts hydrogen supply outlook now points to around 34 million tonnes by 2035, which is shaped… Read More »Hydrogen and CCUS are 5% of long-term emissions cuts, says Rystad | Hydrogen
