EER Releases US ADP 2023
EER's Annual Decarbonization Perspective 2023 (ADP) is the second in a series of annual updates on long-term deep decarbonization pathways for the United States. It provides detailed technical blueprints for the transition of the U.S. economy to net-zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2050, including the production and

Growing Solar, Protecting Nature
Mass Audubon and Harvard Forest recently released their report “Growing Solar, Protecting Nature,” exploring strategies for limiting environmental impacts of ground-mount solar development in Massachusetts. EER contributed to the report by modeling the economic buildout of ground-mount solar required to meet net-zero emissions in Massachusetts by 2050 under different land

Energy Earthshots Initiative Analysis
The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) launched its Energy Earthshots Initiative in 2021 to drive innovation breakthroughs for technologies across the energy sector. The initiative currently includes aggressive cost targets for six critical areas: hydrogen, carbon removal, long duration storage, enhanced geothermal, floating offshore wind, and low-carbon industrial heat.

Net-Zero Northwest
The Clean Energy Transition Institute (CETI) released the Net-Zero Northwest Energy Pathways and Health Impact analyses (Net-Zero Northwest), a comprehensive economic and technical analysis that outlines pathways to achieve net-zero emissions in Idaho, Montana, Oregon, and Washington by 2050. Evolved Energy Research provided the analytics. Net-Zero Northwest provides guidance for

TNC Power of Place National
The effort to reach net-zero greenhouse gas emissions will drive significant changes to the U.S. energy system, including unprecedented growth in clean electricity generation. This rapid expansion, if not thoughtfully planned, will negatively impact natural habitats, wildlife, agricultural lands, and local communities. The Nature Conservancy's Power of

Net Zero Australia Study
Final results for the Net Zero Australia Project have now been released. The study models pathways to decarbonize the energy, industrial, and transport sectors in Australia while enhancing the natural land sink, and assess the contribution that Australian exports can make to global decarbonization. The analysis methods followed those developed

How Big is the IRA Down Payment toward Net Zero?
With last summer's passage of the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA), the United States took the first real steps at the national level on a pathway to net zero. EER's experience modeling anticipated policy impacts of the legislation (REPEAT Project) as well as our experience modeling deep

Hydrogen Competition in the 2022 ADP
Particularly since the passage of IRA, we've received many questions about the appropriate applications for hydrogen to contribute to decarbonization. Opinions vary widely, with some touting the promise of a 'hydrogen economy' using hydrogen as the principle means of storing, delivering, and consuming energy and others
