Emissions trends to 2050
The power sector leads emissions reductions to 2030, but all sectors contribute to the net zero emissions goal,
with remaining residual emissions balanced by atmospheric removals in 2050

Low-emission fuels are an important pillar of a net-zero energy system
Low-emission fuels coming from sustainable bioenergy, hydrogen and ammonia or fossil fuels with CCUS
more than quadruple their contribution to total energy demand by 2050 in the IEA NZE scenario.

Rising demand is met with low-carbon hydrogen technologies
Hydrogen production jumps six-fold by 2050 in the NZE scenario, driven by water electrolysis and natural gas
with CCUS, to meet rising demand in shipping, road transport and heavy industry.

Many regions have opportunities for low-cost low-emission hydrogen
Ambitious policy for deployment can make hydrogen from electrolysis competitive with hydrogen from fossil fuels
within this decade. Overall, in the NZE 150 Mt low-emission H2 (all sources) needed by 2030 and 435 Mt by 2050.

Local cost can be minimised by optimising the use of wind & PV
India has the potential to use low-carbon fuels domestically produced at low cost from wind and solar,
transported by pipeline

Cheap solar PV and wind drive green H2 project development
Renewable capacity dedicated to hydrogen production grows 100-fold by 50 GW by 2027 with a geographically
diversified pipeline of projects across all continents. Further acceleration is required to achieve net zero targets.

The first steps for international hydrogen trade have been taken
Selected international hydrogen trade projects
A global hydrogen market can help countries with limited domestic production potential and provide export
opportunities for countries with good renewable resources or large CO2 storage potential.

Transport is a key component of total supply cost of H2 and ammonia
Ammonia is more expensive to produce than hydrogen, but its supply costs are lower if shipped over a long distance

Low-emission H2 exports reach 12 Mt by 2030 based on projects under development
Planned hydrogen exports by region/country, 2030
Significant hydrogen exports are planned in every major region of the world. Electrolytic hydrogen production
accounts for 88% of planned export volumes by 2030, and most projects target ammonia as the carrier.
13. IEA 2022. All rights reserved. Page 13
…but off-take and importing arrangements lag the scale of planned exports
The importing countries tend to be net importers of fossil fuels and have insufficient domestic renewable energy
resources to meet total energy demand

Six phases of renewables integration
Several countries and power markets are already in Phase 4, and will be increasingly entering
Phases 5 & 6 as countries pursue their net-zero targets.
1 Phase 1. VRE has no noticeable impact at the all-system level.
Phase 6. Seasonal or inter-annual
surplus or deficit of VRE supply
6
Need for seasonal storage and use
of synthetic fuels or hydrogen
Phase 5. Growing amounts of VRE surplus
(days to weeks)
5
Coping with longer periods of
surplus or deficit of energy
Phase 4. The system experiences periods where VRE
makes up almost all generation
4
Ensuring robust power supply
during periods of high VRE
generation
Phase 3. VRE generation determines the operation pattern of the
system
3
Accommodating greater variability
of net load and changes in power
flow patterns on the grids
2 Phase 2. VRE has a minor to moderate impact on system operation

Low-emission fuels can decarbonise thermal fleets
• Three major options for decarbonising
fossil fuel electricity generation
- Early retirement / reduced operation
- CCUS retrofit to power plants
- Co-firing with low-carbon fuels
• Technology is progressing rapidly
- Small gas turbines already operating
at >90% share of hydrogen
- 20% co-firing with coal tested with
ammonia at pilot scale
- Large-scale projects with higher co-
firing rates are under development

Major expansion of supply infrastructure is needed
Co-firing 60% of ammonia in a coal fleet of just 10 GWe would also require massive
expansion of the current electrolyser and CO2 storage capacities, depending on the production route.

IEA policy recommendations
1. Move from announcements to policy implementation
2. Raise ambitions for demand creation in key applications
3. Identify opportunities for hydrogen infrastructure & ensure that short-term actions align with long-term plans
4. Intensify international cooperation for hydrogen trade
5. Remove regulatory barriers
