Answered by: : Carbon Capture, Usage and Storage (CCUS) and
hydrogen are likely to play an essential role in helping the UK
achieve net zero by 2050. For example, our analysis suggests that
around 270TWh of hydrogen could be needed across the economy by
2050, which could increase considerably depending on application
across heat and transport sectors. Low carbon hydrogen could be
produced through gas reformation with CCUS, electrolysis, or
biomass gasification. The precise split of this across end uses
will depend on a variety of factors including cost, availability
and technical application.
