Abstract

It is critical to develop a broad portfolio of affordable and efficient technologies that can manage and ultimately overcome the climate crisis. The burden of developing such technologies to reverse the adverse effects of emissions without compromising the living standards lie with the scientific and engineering community in both academia and industry. In this article, we discuss some of the technologies that are either reaching commercial maturity or are currently under investigation in the scientific community. We also discuss the magnitude and scale required to achieve Net Zero targets. The accompanying video is a detailed technical case study on electrolysers used to produce hydrogen from water using renewable energy to store vast amount of renewable energy.
