Trajectory, driving forces, and mitigation potential of energy-related greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions in China's primary aluminum industry

Shupeng Li et al.

Summary: The greenhouse gas emissions from China's primary aluminum industry (PAI) increased by 18 times from 1990 to 2018, with electricity, fuel, and process activities being the main contributors. Production activity is the key driving factor of emissions increase, while reducing energy intensity, promoting clean energy use, controlling production capacity, and decarbonizing electricity can effectively mitigate GHG emissions in China's PAI.

True Cost of Solar Hydrogen

Eero Vartiainen et al.

Summary: Green hydrogen will be a crucial component of the future 100% sustainable energy and industrial system, with a certain proportion of solar and wind electricity being used for hydrogen production through water electrolysis. It is anticipated that by 2030 and 2050, electrolyzer capital expenditure and hydrogen costs will significantly decrease, particularly with the continuous decline in solar PV costs.

Towards emissions certification systems for international trade in hydrogen: The policy challenge of defining boundaries for emissions accounting

Lee V. White et al.

Summary: Hydrogen as a fuel burns cleanly, but its production can lead to substantial greenhouse gas emissions. The certification of embedded emissions will be crucial for the future of hydrogen as a low-emission energy carrier. To balance tradability and emissions-reduction incentives, hydrogen certification schemes should adopt a modular approach.

Ammonia to power: Forecasting the levelized cost of electricity from green ammonia in large-scale power plants

Zac Cesaro et al.

Summary: Green ammonia, synthesized from air, water, and renewable energy, is a carbon-free energy storage vector with numerous energy applications, including dispatchable green electricity. Techno-economic analysis shows that the cost of electricity production from green ammonia is projected to decrease with technological advancements, potentially allowing it to compete with other dispatchable low or zero-carbon technologies in the future.

The observed cost of high penetration solar and wind electricity

Andrew Blakers et al.

Summary: In order to ensure continuous availability of electricity, high levels of variable solar and wind energy must be balanced with alternative generation, storage, transmission, and demand management. Australia's rapid installation of solar and wind energy is a natural experiment showing that the balancing cost may not be as high as previously disputed.

Low-cost, low-emission 100% renewable electricity in Southeast Asia supported by pumped hydro storage

Bin Lu et al.

Summary: This study investigates the role of short-term off-river energy storage (STORES) in supporting 100% renewable electricity in Southeast Asia, finding that closed-loop pumped hydro storage has high potential and maturity. Comparative analysis with the Asia-Pacific Super Grid scenario shows that with support from STORES, Southeast Asia can achieve very high penetration of domestic solar and wind energy resources.

A zero-carbon, reliable and affordable energy future in Australia

Bin Lu et al.

Summary: Australia demonstrates high per capita energy consumption and greenhouse gas emissions, but leads in rapid deployment of solar and wind energy globally. Through modeling decarbonized electricity systems and electrification of various sectors, the country achieves significant reduction in emissions. Utilizing short-term energy storage and demand-side response, as well as large-scale energy grids interconnections, Australia shows a pathway towards reliable and affordable energy with high levels of integration of renewables.

Which countries are prepared to green their coal-based steel industry with electricity? - Reviewing climate and energy policy as well as the implementation of renewable electricity

Marlene Arens et al.

Summary: Global steel production currently relies on coal, but with declining costs of renewable electricity and unrealized carbon capture and storage, electricity- and hydrogen-based steel production is gaining momentum. While some countries are implementing long-term CO2 reduction targets, there is still a lack of demanding medium-term targets affecting coal-based steel production.

Greening Asia's Economic Development

Paul J. Burke et al.

Summary: Asia is facing serious environmental challenges such as urban air pollution and the impacts of global climate change. However, there are growing opportunities for a transition to a cleaner economy powered by zero-emission energy sources. Economic mechanisms like emissions pricing and renewable portfolio standards have the potential to support a greener development model for the Asian Century.
