The roadmap is to be seen in conjunction with Innomission 1: Capture and storage or use of CO₂. A call for action. Key activities and workstreams build on identified goals, challenges and inflection points and provides guidance for stakeholders, that all are part of a green transition. One action remains the most immediate and prominent across the value chain – the need to act urgently and coordinated and to support more demonstration and up-scaling activities.
Further delay or hints of indecisiveness, in the support of enabling a transformation, will have pronounced consequences to the ability of further curbing Danish greenhouse gas emissions according to both national and international goals, as well as the harnessing of the significant Danish socio-economic potential. A large number of Danish industry stakeholders are already planning a total of 3.7 GW (~53 PJ/y hydrogen production) significantly exceeding the expectations of the Danish Energy Agency during the period from 2024 to 2030 of 132 MW (~1.9 PJ/y hydrogen production).
These plans provide an immediate and obvious launch pad for a strong Danish ambition within PtX as supported by this roadmap. Reducing uncertainty. Key in the utilisation of hydrogen-based fuels and scarce renewable carbon resources in specific parts of the transport system and industry requires a scale of investment beyond the traditional willingness of the public sector. To succeed, a reduction in uncertainty and achievement of cost parity between alternative green and fossil fuels, is needed. This involves: • A clear and stable path as to which fuels besides direct electrification to target, which preferably is already global commodity e.g. Hydrogen, Ammonia, Methanol and biooil. • Drastically increasing the availability of green hydrogen as well as increasing its utilisation both directly and as a basis for production of green fuels. And in consequence increase availability of renewable power accordingly. • Pooling the off-taking demand side and creating new value chains across energy and transport
