The UK has halved the carbon intensity of its electricity system over the past decade, decarbonising twice as fast as any other major economy, according to figures contained in a new report from Drax Insights. The UK has decarbonised its power grid at an astonishing rate," said Dr Iain Staffell, lead author of the report.

T 3 transformation, which encompasses digital transformation, energy transformation and net-zero carbon transformation, is a new model for propelling today’s campuses into the future through systematic reformation and innovation. The world is consuming increasingly more energy, which causes higher carbon emissions.

The Chinese government has provided the first evidence that its recent unveiling of a net zero emissions target will trigger a new wave of low carbon infrastructure deployment. State media reported this week that the government is to invest close to $900bn over the next five years in upgrading and expanding the country's power grids.

All National Grid's net zero pathways rely on significant BECCS capacity to generate 'negative emissions', claims think tank Ember. As the biomass crops store carbon from the atmosphere, by using them as a fuel feedstock while stopping the CO2 from entering the atmosphere, BECCS is designed to produce 'negative emissions'.

A group of exciting start-ups are exploring whether the world's trash mountains could become a valuable source of low carbon hydrogen fuels. Still, there is potential for clean - low- or zero-carbon - hydrogen to take off, energy experts believe. One novel spin on emerging hydrogen fuel options is "clean hydrogen" made from trash.

Given the totemic green grid target is just 13 years away, and the decarbonisation of the grid represents the backbone of the UK's entire 2050 net zero project, it is hard to underestimate this particular mission. Moreover, for climate and energy security reasons, a net zero power grid is essentially non-negotiable.
