‘Blue hydrogen production should be restricted due to associated emissions and high costs’
A new report from think-tank E3G sets out the case against H2 derived from fossil gas with CCS, arguing that referring to it as ‘low-carbon’ is misleading The production of blue hydrogen derived from fossil gas with carbon capture and storage (CCS) should be restricted due to the associated greenhouse gas emissions, high cost and […]
Hydrogen’s premature promise of Big Bang power
Key takeaways Clean hydrogen offers a partial solution to the sustainable energy transition with demand forecast to rise eight-fold by 2050 From ‘clean’ or ‘dirty’ resources, hydrogen is not an energy source like solar, wind or oil, but an energy carrier, like electricity. Production, infrastructure, storage and cost challenges remain Government investments and commitments to […]

Peaking and Net-Zero for India’s Energy Sector CO2 Emissions
Overview This CEEW study is the first-of-its-kind exercise to outline multiple pathways for India to attain net-zero emissions, rather than fixating on a single scenario or a single year. The study focuses on insights related to four alternative scenarios: 2030 peak–2050 net-zero, 2030 peak–2060 net-zero, 2040 peak–2070 net-zero, and 2050 peak–2080 net-zero. It also highlights […]
