ESCENARIO RUTA A CERO NETO 2050

The document is a glossary accompanying a technical report by Transforma and WWF. It defines key energy and climate terms relevant to Colombia's path to net-zero emissions by 2050, covering categories such as bioenergy, hydrogen types, renewable energy sources, and carbon capture technologies.

• The document defines 'net zero emissions' as the state achieved when human-caused greenhouse gas emissions to the atmosphere are balanced by human-caused removals over a specific period.
• The text distinguishes between three types of hydrogen based on production methods: 'grey' (from fossil fuels without carbon capture), 'blue' (from fossil fuels with carbon capture and storage), and 'green' (produced via electrolysis using non-conventional renewable energy sources).
• Non-conventional renewable energy sources (FNCER) in Colombia are defined as environmentally sustainable global resources that are either not used or used marginally within the country, specifically including biomass, small hydroelectric plants, wind, geothermal, solar, and marine energy.
• The glossary details various forms of bioenergy, distinguishing between 'modern bioenergy' (which includes sustainable biomass and biogases) and 'traditional use of solid biomass' (which involves basic technologies like three-stone fires).
