Hydrogen set for major role in transition
Massive investment in renewable energy and electrolyser capacity will be needed if countries are to reach their ambitious net-zero goals
More than 70 countries have set ambitious net-zero emissions goals, according to the UN, and many have enacted regulations and initiatives to meet those targets. These pathways include the broader adoption of electric vehicles (EVs); utilising new low-or zero-carbon fuels (e.g., blue or green hydrogen) to decarbonise power, transport and heavy industry; increasing investments in renewable energy; upping the percentage of biofeedstock blending in transport fuels; incorporating the use of CCS or CCUS; and boosting the production of biofuels and alternative/renewable fuels. Of these, hydrogen will undoubtedly play a major role in global d
