The green hydrogen transition presents a monumental socio-technical transition. The establishment of local, national, and regional hydrogen valleys will inevitably require substantial investments and infrastructural development: new wind and solar farms, nuclear power plants, hydrogen facilities, transmission pipelines and routes, and large-scale storage facilities. At the same time, local opposition towards green energy infrastructure has increased in the Baltic Sea Region (BSR). What are we doing for just transition?

"Without significant efforts to scale grid infrastructure investments, nations will face a more expensive transition to net-zero as they will be forced to choose more costly energy security options like nuclear and biomass plants."

In the first half of 2024, over 50% of the European energy mix came from renewables like onshore wind, hydropower, and solar. Additionally, nuclear generation boosted the continent's energy mix to 74% low-carbon sources.

yowza! New York could see electricity demand grow 90% by 2042: ISO Long-duration batteries, small modular nuclear reactors, hydrogen and fuel cells may be needed to replace 25 GW of fossil generation by 2040. Dive Brief: New York’s electricity demand could increase by 50% to 90% over the next two decades, driven by the electrification of heating and transportation and the development of energy intensive projects and industry, the state’s grid operator said in a 20-year outlook published July 25. Meeting that demand means installed capacity will need to triple from 37 GW today to 100 GW to 130 GW by 2040, the New York Independent System Operator said. There is also a need for voltage support facilities and transmission investment in the Western and Northern regions of the state. Between 20 GW and 40 GW of dispatchable emissions-free resources, or DEFRs, will need to replace 25 GW of fossil-fuel generation by 2040, the grid operator said. Those could include long-duration batteries, small modular nuclear reactors, hydrogen-powered generators and fuel cells.

Fair points to focus on what we’ve got as technologies as the time frame is too short to depend on new ones and now deciding to build nuclear is way too late. Also good points on barriers such as the energy grid, though reducing it to just an optimisation problem is excluding all the difficulties of socially and spatially fitting the renewables in local communities as well as at the national and international level. But indeed let’s focus our money and efforts in getting it down now

Some good points made here, especially on grid stability and load balancing. I think British politicians lack the STEM skills to understand some of the challenges to migrating the UK energy stack to #wind and #solar without proper baseload #power like #nuclear #natgas or #coal https://lnkd.in/euGxibPy

Global electricity demand will step up its rate of growth over the next three years, but the additional power use will be covered by low-emissions sources as we embark on a greener future. The International Energy Agency (IEA) predicts that by 2025, renewable energy will exceed coal power and, along with nuclear energy, is anticipated to constitute almost half of the world's power generation by 2026. During the COP28 climate summit, negotiators reached an agreement on a roadmap for shifting away from fossil fuels and committed to tripling renewable capacity by 2030.
