California’s goal is to reach 100% carbon neutrality by 2045 and SoCalGas will be instrumental in helping our state get there. SoCalGas released The Role of Clean Fuels and Gas Infrastructure in Achieving California's Net-Zero Climate Goal – a study showing the essential role clean fuels like RNG and hydrogen can play in our energy future.
Clean Fuels Reliability Analysis
The White Paper provides new insights into the value of clean fuels in electric reliability. Up to 10 gigawatts of additional clean renewable hydrogen generation along with intermittent renewables and battery storage could support a more reliable grid in 2045.
We are engaged in more than 10 pilot projects related to hydrogen and have partnered with the Green Hydrogen Coalition, Los Angeles Department of Water and Power (LADWP) and other key partners on HyDeal, an initiative to achieve at-scale green hydrogen procurement at $1.50/kilogram in the Los Angeles Basin by 2030.
These technical appendices provide additional detail to support the "The Role of Clean Fuels and Gas Infrastructure in Achieving California's Net Zero Climate Goal" white paper. It outlines the methodology and key assumptions in regard to the economy-wide decarbonization scenario modeling and clean fuels infrastructure implications and costs. This document is available in English only.

Clean Fuels and Gas Infrastructure: Key to California's Net-Zero Goal
This study delves into California's journey toward a net-zero energy system, elevating the discourse from previous research by state agencies like the California Energy Commission and the California Air Resources Board.
One standout revelation from our analysis is the potential of a clean fuels network, utilizing existing gas infrastructure to distribute clean fuels and manage carbon. This innovative approach emerges as a cost-effective and less risky pathway for California to achieve its climate objectives, showcasing a promising alternative in the pursuit of a sustainable future.
