Northwest European Hydrogen Monitor 2025 Executive summary
…as substantial carbon storage capabilities. The region has a well-developed, interconnected gas network and underground storage sites that could be partially repurposed to facilitate the transmission, distribution and storage of low-emissions hydrogen. Despite the region’s significant potential, the development of low-emissions hydrogen has faced challenges. These include limited progress on demand creation, relatively high production costs, complex logistics and remaining technological hurdles.Low-emissions hydrogen is defined here as hydrogen produced via electrolysis where the electricity is generated from a low-emissions source (renewables or nuclear), biomass, or fossil fuels with carbon capture, utilisation and storage …

World Energy Outlook 2022 Outlook for solid fuels
…and 70% by 2050; coal demand peaks in China in the early 2020s and in India in the late 2020s. In the Net Zero Emissions by 2050 (NZE) Scenario, demand falls 45% by 2030 and 90% by 2050.There is very limited use of carbon capture, utilisation and storage (CCUS) with coal in the STEPS. Around 500 Mtce of coal consumed in 2050 is equipped with CCUS in both the APS and NZE Scenario, corresponding to around 30% of coal demand in the APS and more than 80% in the NZE Scenario in 2050. Unabated coal use drops by 99% between…

…fuel generation: Electricity and heat generation using fossil fuels, including coal-, oil- and natural gas–fired power plants. It excludes fossil fuel supply activities and focuses only on power and heat production. Fossil fuel generation projects in this dashboard do not explicitly include carbon capture, utilisation and storage technologies.Grids and storage: Infrastructure for transmitting, distributing and managing electricity, including transmission and distribution networks, substations, grid reinforcement and battery energy storage systems. Storage refers primarily to grid-connected battery storage used to balance supply and demand.Renewable generation: Electricity generation from renewable energy sources, including solar photovoltaics, wind, hydropower, geothermal…

Global Hydrogen Review 2025 Executive summary
…time, potential low-emissions hydrogen production by 2030 based on announced projects has declined. Cancellations and delays mean that production that could be achieved based on industry announcements by 2030 stands now at 37 million tonnes per year (Mtpa), compared with 49 Mtpa by 2030 when the Global Hydrogen Review 2024 was published a year ago. Potential production fell for both projects using electrolysis and those using fossil fuels with carbon capture utilisation and storage (CCUS), although electrolysis projects were responsible for more than 80% of the total drop. These delays and cancellations included early-stage projects across Africa, the Americas, Europe…

Delivering Sustainable Fuels Executive summary
…choices made across the supply chain. Measures include the adoption of sustainable farming practices, using carbon capture utilisation and storage (CCUS), switching to renewable energy for processing, or powering electrolysers with dedicated low-emissions electricity. By 2035, most existing and emerging fuel pathways could reach very low lifecycle greenhouse gas intensity (gCO2/MJ), and in some cases even deliver net carbon removal, provided that performance-based policies that drive continuous improvements are implemented.Liquid and gaseous renewable fuels already play a visible role in today’s global energy landscape. They are particularly relevant for transport, where they represent 4% of…

Financing the Modernisation of Power Systems Beyond Coal
…energy security, complicates efforts to accelerate coal transitions. Recent volatility in international gas markets has reinforced the short‑term economic and security value of existing coal assets, adding complexity to national transition strategies. The region’s young coal fleet also implies substantial long‑term emissions if plants continue operating at current utilisation rates.Against this backdrop, new approaches are being explored to support coal transitions while maintaining secure and reliable power systems. This report examines the potential role of transition credits as a market‑based instrument to support coal transitions in Southeast Asia. It analyses the scale of emissions from existing coal fleets, options…

Delivering Sustainable Fuels
…fronts to increase uptake and foster a large and diverse set of sustainable fuel pathways. This calls for a shared global vision for sustainable fuels, along with targeted policies to bridge costs gaps with conventional fuels, innovation to expand production potential, robust and mutually agreed carbon accounting methodologies to ensure that sustainability criteria are met, long-term investment in infrastructure, and more accessible financing, especially in emerging and developing economies.This report was prepared in support of Brazil’s COP30 Presidency and its Climate Action Agenda. It presents a sectoral analysis of global pathways for accelerating the deployment of sustainable…
