======World Energy Technology Outlook – WETO H2====== The WETO-H2 report examines the future of global energy systems up to 2050, considering drivers, constraints, and the impact of different energy scenarios, including the use of hydrogen as a key energy carrier. \\ \\ (Generated with the help of GPT-4) \\ ^ Quick Facts ^^ |Report location: |[[https://espas.secure.europarl.europa.eu/orbis/system/files/generated/document/en/WETO-H2.pdf|source]] | |Language: |English | |Publisher: |[[encyclopedia:eu_ec_european_commission|European Commission]] | |Authors: |Domenico Rossetti Di Valdalbero | |Time horizon: |2050 | |Geographic focus: |Global, Europe | =====Methods===== The research method involves scenario analysis using the POLES model to simulate the development of national and regional energy systems under resource constraints and climate policies. It incorporates economic forecasts, technological progress, and policy developments to project energy consumption, production, and CO2 emissions. \\ \\ (Generated with the help of GPT-4) \\ =====Key Insights===== The WETO-H2 report presents three scenarios for the world's energy system by 2050: the Reference case, the Carbon Constraint case, and the Hydrogen case. It explores the role of hydrogen in future energy markets and the challenges Europe faces in maintaining competitiveness while promoting clean energy technologies. \\ \\ (Generated with the help of GPT-4) \\ =====Additional Viewpoints===== Categories: {{tag>2050}} | {{tag>2050_time_horizon}} | {{tag>2050s_time_horizon}} | {{tag>English_publication_language}} | {{tag>Europe_geographic_scope}} | {{tag>Global_geographic_scope}} | {{tag>carbon_capture}} | {{tag>climate_change}} | {{tag>climate_policy}} | {{tag>co2_emissions}} | {{tag>energy}} | {{tag>energy_consumption}} | {{tag>energy_production}} | {{tag>energy_technology}} | {{tag>environment}} | {{tag>forecast}} | {{tag>fossil_fuels}} | {{tag>fuel_cells}} | {{tag>hydrogen_production}} | {{tag>nuclear_energy}} | {{tag>renewable_energy}} ~~DISCUSSION~~
