#Electrification or #Hydrogen? Our new #study explores the roles of both strategies in new #EU #scenarios to #climate neutrality and derives plausible future deployment ranges. Electrification is key, while hydrogen only needed for specific applications. www.cell.com/one-earth/fu...

(4) Residual emissions are dominated by agriculture, industrial processes (e.g., cement), aviation and shipping. Developping technical carbon management options like CCS at a scale of around 200-300 MtCO2 is therefore essential to reduce or offset these emissions.

(3) It will take time to scale up low-carbon hydrogen supply. However, H2 is a key ingredient for switching hard-to-abate applications like backup-power or chemicals production. In our scenarios, clean H2 contributes around 300-700 TWh, roughly 3-8% of final energy demand by 2040

(2) Electrification of hitherto non-electric energy demands allows the transport and buildings heating sectors to tap into the cheap and clean renewable power for replacing fossils. From 2030 onward almost all newly sold cars (and most trucks) are battery-electric.

Key points:
(1) An almost entirely fossil-free power supply is of central strategic importance for reaching the 2040 target. This requires an up to 10-fold increase in solar PV and an up to 3-fold increase in wind power generation relative to 2022.

EU's #DGClima is set to announce the target of reduciing the block's GHG emissions by 90% until 2040 rel to 1990 levels. Sounds ambitious? We performed a detailed analysis of the implications for the energy transition, available as a pre-print (!) here: www.researchsquare.com/article/rs-3...

COP28 just adopted this text now.
Insufficient for climate emergency
"Transitioning away from fossil fuels" is not the needed emergency break
Large loopholes for fossil fuels in long term
Not a clear signal for fossil phase out
Not historic only the bare minimum

In dieser Deutlichkeit ist das schon überraschend: Trotz Atomausstieg haben die fossilen Kraftwerke in Deutschland im dritten Quartal 2023 weitaus weniger Strom erzeugt als je zuvor.

Where does the EU stand with its climate policy? The Climate Action Progress Report 2023 and the EEA’s Trends and Projections report are clear: Current policies are insufficient. The implementation of Fit-for-55 is crucial. However, even with these efforts, more is still required. Here are the facts
