Renewable Energy Procurement

Decarbonising our societies and economies is arguably the biggest challenge of this century. However, large parts of industry, agriculture or sea transport cannot be decarbonised directly with green electricity. Green hydrogen is therefore key to bringing their CO2 emissions to net zero. As this view becomes increasingly established, green H2 project announcements are skyrocketing. Consequently, green hydrogen is also gaining in importance for investors.

Driving power sector emissions down to zero is essential to achieve a net-zero economy. The electrification of energy demand in all other sectors is only effective under the assumption that power sector emissions fall to zero. A 2017 meta analysis of power sector models found that while creating a net-zero power system based solely on variable renewable power was possible, this would require a significant overbuild of capacity to ensure reliable power supply. Power systems based solely on variable renewables were several times more expensive than systems where 80% of power was supplied by variable renewables.

Most companies run into significant challenges on the path to net zero. Many cannot get a handle on their current sustainability performance because it’s hard to aggregate data from a myriad of sources. Others are so overwhelmed with the financials, they freeze on their path to net zero or, worse yet, they never start. Even large businesses may struggle to make upgrades to bolster their buildings’ energy efficiency or afford expensive new equipment and smart building technology. Instead, immediate budgetary needs, like paying employee salaries and product development, take precedent.

Our growing climate crisis demands that we conserve energy and water, reduce waste, and find ways to protect our ecosystems. But the most urgent challenge facing us globally may be to reduce our carbon emissions. And while governments and businesses across the globe are racing to set ambitious targets on a path to a net zero carbon future, we can’t reach net zero if we don’t actually know where we are. We need a common foundation to ensure that Scope 1, 2, and 3 emissions are measured in an accurate, consistent, and reliable way. Without global standards, it will be difficult for organizations to develop effective roadmaps to reduce their emissions without wasting time and money—and it will be difficult to know if our collective actions are making a difference

Decarbonising the transport sector has begun with the adoption of battery electric vehicles, and they will take us a long way to full decarbonisation. But commercial users tell us there are use cases where battery vehicles will not be appropriate for them. We outline policy actions that can enable hydrogen for mobility and begin to develop the wider hydrogen ecosystem in Ireland.
