The brief assesses its potential role alongside the associated risks, offering policy considerations for governments to evaluate renewable hydrogen’s place in broader energy transition strategies.
Key insights from the brief:
💡 Renewable #hydrogen adds value as seasonal storage and peaking capacity.
💡 Co-firing H2 and ammonia in coal and gas plants offers limited emission reductions at relatively high costs. Scaling renewables and grids offer a lower-cost route to reach #climatetargets. 2/x
At the same time what's up with the UK?
"the share of people concerned about climate change has fallen over the past year, dipping from 68% to 60%.
Support for the UK’s target to hit net zero emissions by 2050 fell even further, plunging from 62% to 46%."
All this while the southern Europe fries under scorching heat wave and forest fires.

The EU is on track to meet its 2030 emissions goal thanks to strong progress on renewables.
The EU is “well on track” to reach its 2030 climate targets, the European Commission said on Wednesday.
An assessment of updated National Climate and Energy Plans (NECPs) shows the EU is on course to achieve a 54% emissions reduction by 2030 - just one per cent shy of its legally binding 55% target.
