resulting in a 90% emission reduction compared to hydrogen from SMR. Tightening the emission cap from 3-cap to 1-cap is associated with an average LCOH increment of 4%, facilitating a further 6% reduction in emissions. When the cap is further tightened, decreasing from 1- to 0.5-...
Note: GHG: Greenhouse gas emissions. NRR: Natural resources rent. ↓: decreasing impact. ↑: increasing impact. Some of the literature argues that natural resource rent promotes CO2 emissions (Bekun et al., 2019, Wang et al., 2020, Agboola et al., 2021, Shen et al., 2021, Zhang et ...
The result is GDP growth outpacing changes in the GED and decreasing pollution intensity. China represents a nation at a middle stage. In the late 1990s and early 21st century, China grew rapidly, fueled by capital formation rates that surpassed GDP growth, without constraints on emissions. Then...
Many semiconductor companies have hesitated to address Scope 3 upstream emissions because of the challenges encountered to date when attempting to create transparency about emissions and drive decarbonization initiatives. The problems largely arise because emissions are fragmented across hundreds of suppliers...
In general, the certified pathways for the production of sustainable aviation fuels (SAFs) are still far from being competitive with fossil kerosene, although they have the potential to reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. However, the mitigation costs related to SAFs and how they compete with ...
If the global cattle population were considered a country, it would be among the top three for GHG emissions.134One of the biggest challenges in decarbonizing grocery is the key role dairy and meat play in the Western diet, as these products account for almost half of all product-related ...
Since economic damages through increasing emissions accumulate over the time, so do the social costs of carbon41. Higher discount rates do not change this trend, but reduce the weight of future impacts and thus result in lower social costs of carbon. For continuously supplied ES like habitat ...
This study provides evidence of the value of clean hydrogen in HTA sectors for China and countries facing similar challenges in reducing emissions to achieve net-zero goals.Similar content being viewed by others Near and long-term perspectives on strategies to decarbonize China’s heavy-duty ...
Decreasing both embodied emissions and operational energy by Enhancing building compactness, window-to-wall ratio, glazing, and incorporating mechanical ventilation [31] China Remote sensing techniques and building material flow analysis The materials product stage forms 62% of the total; the building use...
To support the neutrality target, both decreasing carbon emissions and increasing the capacity of carbon sinks are vital.Power and industries are anticipated to substantially ramp up renewable energies (e.g., wind, solar, etc.), and carbon sinks will increase throughout the next few decades. A ...
