EnergyTag Oral Testimony March 27, 2024 45V Clean Hydrogen Production Tax Credit Internal Revenue Service Good Morning, My name is Killian Daly and I am the Executive Director at EnergyTag, an independent not-for-profit organization based in Europe, focused on promoting and enabling robust hourly electricity accounting standards globally. Previously, I oversaw energy sourcing for one […]
In previous blogs, we’ve discussed the opportunity to implement Granular Accounting in the GHG Protocol and the benefits that can bring. In this final part of the blog series, we talk about feasibility – getting it done. Granular Matching is Happening Figure 1 – Millions of MWhs of Hourly Matching Are Happening Globally (Source: EnergyTag). […]
In previous blogs, we discussed the huge opportunity presented by the GHG Protocol update and what the research says about how to solve it with Granular Accounting. Now we turn to what Governments are doing and how that should guide where the GHG Protocol goes. Over the past few years, we have started to see […]
In the last two blogs, we highlighted the unique opportunity to embed Granular Carbon Accounting in the update of the GHG Protocol. But what does the science about its impact on grid decarbonization? This article dives into the evidence. In particular, we focus on modelling from the world’s leading power systems experts (e.g. Princeton, MIT, […]
In our last blog, we discussed the huge opportunity presented by the update of the GHG Protocol to fix carbon accounting and electricity accounting in particular. Today, let’s talk about some basic issues with how today’s accounting works, which has led to concerns about insufficient additionality of renewables being driven by related claims. A core […]
The Imperative for Robust Electricity Accounting Clean electricity is, by far, the most important tool we have to reach net-zero. According to the IEA, we need electricity to make up over 50% of final consumption in 2050 (i.e. tripling electricity supply), and for that supply to be completely decarbonized by 2040. This challenge is massive, […]
