MARCH 18, 2017

Global energy-related carbon dioxide emissions were flat for a third straight year in 2016 even as the global economy grew, according to the International Energy Agency. The biggest drop came from the United States, where carbon dioxide emissions fell 3%, or 160 million tonnes, while the economy grew by 1.6%.

IEA: time to tap into hydrogen’s potential to play a key role in a clean, secure and affordable energy future

Green Car Congress

JUNE 15, 2019

A wide variety of fuels are able to produce hydrogen, including renewables, nuclear, natural gas, coal and oil. Today, hydrogen is already being used on an industrial scale, but it is almost entirely supplied from natural gas and coal. That’s the equivalent of the annual carbon emissions of the United Kingdom and Indonesia combined.

But limits to these technologies can undermine the case for a renewables-only electricity mix. To ensure reliable energy supplies, grids dominated by renewables need “firming” capacity: back-up technology that can supply electricity on demand. But as with any technology, sodium-ion batteries present challenges.

Alternative technologies, such as hybrid and electric vehicles that use oil more efficiently or not at all, continue to advance but they take time to penetrate markets. Without a bold change of policy direction, the IEA warned at the launch, the world will lock itself into an insecure, inefficient and high-carbon energy system.
