Abstract "Sustainable Energy Pathways to Net Zero" addresses realistic pathways, between now and 2050, to reach net zero: a steady state concentration of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere. It discusses solar and wind energy, hydrogen, energy storage, and electric vehicles, which are becoming increasingly cost-efficient and are all part of these pathways. Hydrogen, the price of electricity, the integration of different sources of electricity into the electrical grid, and the electrical vehicle charging networks, are crucial in balancing supply and demand. It is the intersection of these technologies where the most profound advances can occur"-- Provided by publisher.
