we must talk global greenhouse gas emissions by 2034 to have any hope of reaching net 0 by 2050, and avoiding the worst effects of global warming. so the change while it is happening, needs to happen quicker. and this program will be looking to the solutions that have a part to play and that transformation on the all the islands in the u. k. scientists working with one of clean energy is holy grails, green, hydrogen, and in norway, a carbon neutral data center is using the force of nature to power digital life. the global demand for energy is increasing, but burning fossil fuels is polluting and it's warming upon it with devastating impact for life on earth. while renewable energy from when sun and sea cheaper than ever. but the intermittent, it's difficult to store for

a few of the future is emerging, which could prove fundamental to de carbonite in the global economy. i've come to the orkney island of the north coast of the u. k, where a network of scientists and researches approving the missing link in the next renewable energy revolution might be found in the simplest and most abundant elements. hydrogen, the universe is about 73 percent hydrogen, mainly occurring as gas, but on earth, most hydrogen is contained in water is b h in h $2.00 oh. after it's generated from what it can be used as a few the post cars, buses, and even spacecraft. but in order to extract it from water, you need electricity. when that's produced using fossil fuse, it contributes to greenhouse gas emissions. in order to be known as the energy islands, scientists have discovered how to produce green hydrogen using renewable power,

generated by wind farms and title turbines. it could be a game changer. ah, a meeting, a del lydia dale who the hydrogen project manager and was brought up on orkney. just let me know if we have a sense of self that should be we need to do thanks for our sales doctor for we are not really resilient on island community. we come to shop and say, when a bought me 13 inhabited islands to see how they produced, i just kind of a small, quiet island for quite a high energy for this turbine is owned by local residents and produces more energy than the local grid can handle the excess power is used in hydrogen production. i'm no scientists, but i could see on the train it says explosive compress gas. and what is actually happening behind these,

this fits what's going on in these boxes. so it's working energy production site, which is where we're standing at site. what's the connection between? when did hydrogen, we have the wind turbine going round here today. when it reaches a certain meters per 2nd. we switch the energy production over to produce hydrogen . these metal boxes contain the key piece of machinery and electrolyte that generates hydrogen gas and electric current flows through the electrolyzer causing water to break down into hydrogen and oxygen. hydrogen is then collected and compressed, so the electrolyzer just takes normal drinking or use of energy from the wind turbine. expect that each to washer and to hydrogen and oxygen. we capture the hydrogen for you for energy. and the option at the moment is just a tough sir. so your re diverting that wind energy into hydro, right? as storing and storing the high it's transported by trailer and he's all over orkney, some in domestic heating,

but mostly in commercial vehicles and ferries. in the trailers, the hydrogen stored under pressure at $184.00 times its original density. that's a lot of energy. i'm meeting with james ferguson, a specialist in hydrogen storage. the highly inflammable gas is locked away in compounds and the key sight. oh wow. oh gosh, so one of the big advantages of hydrogen is that is a kind of option for seasonal energy storage. and that's when we want to store a lot of energy over months. so we know that in the u. k. during the winter, it's very blue. it's very windy if we go to a wind turbine based energy system. we're going to have a lot more generated in the winter than we need. and so we can capture that and store it from the form of hydrogen, and then keep it until the summer when we don't have any wind blowing and, but we still using energy, but you make was. so how is hydrogen used as a fuel where? well, james has a rather naughty way of demonstrating this with

a toy car that looks about what that's about 20 mills. he shows me how to produce hydrogen with an many electrolytes. so we just wait a moment, we're going to generate some hydrogen. we're going to get build up an electric current passing through the water forms hydrogen bubble. now, some gas storage here that we didn't have before. now i'm going to take my cable around here and you can see now that the gases are flowing into the fuel cell and then that it's going to allow it to be with the fargo. that is absolutely better cause the principal to pose the fuel cell in james is toy car is the same when scaled up to power a fleet fight council ban on the island. well, completely silent, completely silent. wow. you can sometimes hear the compressor from the hydrogen when it's when it kicks in. it, you know, here we, well,

that's all you here. david hannon is working with the council to expand its use of hydrogen technology. so for a long time, we're talking about electric vehicles as being the future of, of green transportation. what do you get a hydrogen per vehicle that you wouldn't get of an electric vehicle? this is also about 3 runs off the battery. but then the hydrogen is yours to basically extend the range on it. so if you're either traveling long distances, you can potentially double range and is another advantage. it's quick to re fuel with electric battery, you might take from half an r t. it are the charger battery, whereas this is pretty much instantaneous. you know, talking couple of minutes normally we'd expect to see an exhaust pick that the back of eventually this. yeah. and you can see there's no exhaust here and the same as any over electric vehicle. obviously we've got hydrogen, but then the sort of emissions off out as water paper is here yet. right?

wow. all right, really, i said with, with me it's great to hear. house seems to be growing all the time. and there's that awareness of the importance of this kind of network, or there's a quality of entity when you live in an archipelago. another important form of transport piece. very nice fe company operates 74 different connections and there are more than 20000 sailings each year. but the fuel used in shipping badly polluting i, david for david, hidden who works with the faith company in green. hydrogen is part of the plan to clean up the operation. and they all happens below deck. ok, have no idea what we get into it. but here we go. oh wow. oh, the shit out. what we're looking at in the cylinders contain site. looks

like that's the 20 the fuel. what are you using? it's hydrogen, hydrogen, it's doing that system will run regenerated engine steering safety systems and the, the late in the thing. and so when in the future, hydrogen will be used to drive all ships operations including propulsion within the stopping, used to be on the small steps that already established fans and fairies powered by green hydrogen just part of the picture in orkney, pioneering research into how the fuel could play a global role in transport and beyond is happening here at the orkney research and innovation campus. one of the most important projects is in a be ation. in a normal year,

nearly $14000000.00 flights world wage result in heavy c o. 2 emissions search for an alternative fuel urgent when company collaborating with scientists in orkney is 0 ivy. i contact director survey kids live some 6 say it about their 1st 15 minute long hydrogen test plate. it was the combination of almost 3 years of research and that frankly, it was, it was for delivering the baby. the full game was so relieved and so excited at the same time. i know that you guys are planning to fly here with one of your hydrogen per claim o final flight of our 5 fire one project. be taken place from 14. the working is famous for the hydrogen. can you give us a time schedule of when you think that we will see passenger planes in the skies running

on hydrogen? of course, there are other t as in infancy, but i personally believe that in about 15 to 20 years, they will be a lot of depth. why and using hydrogen. and this is truly exciting. so we're going to rise to the challenges of our energy economy, our future transportation needs. it means embracing a range of solutions. i think what they're doing here orkney is proving that green hydrogen me puts the green hydrogen is beginning to take. it's a key part. the eas plan because, well, 1st carbon neutral constant by 2050 a new projects have been developed since chile saudi arabia, the united states. yes, there is still a way to go before green. hydrogen is proven to be scalable and cost effective, but it is gaining traction. and it's one of a number of current trends that have a wealth free of fossil fuels. there is definitely a new power system in

a new energy assistance emerg bar i. whether we look at power, generation and distribution, or whether we look at transports, there is no doubt that we are in the middle of the most consequential transition in the energy space that we have seen in 100 years. it is a very exciting moment. it's also a nerve wracking moment, because we know that if we don't get to half emissions by 2030, it will be too late to do anything substantial about climate change. this is our last window of opportunity to bend the curve of emissions and get on to a did current track. and doing society would be a society that when we present clean energy, that energy would be centralized, cheap,

ubiquitous. we would be able to provide power to every single home on this planet. we currently have 800000000 people who do not have the power, meaning they're in abs jet conferences by moving over to 100 percent clean energy d centralized. we can make energy big, and we can bring those were under the line of poverty over that line. a green society would be an economy that has smart grid that has storage available to all renewable energy generation sources. which ought to be society in which there is efficient and clean trying point. passenger vehicles would offer transport as a service. not being a possession of any individual and heavy truck would be using clean field.

and finally, dizzy would be clean wyatt because we would have put the internal combustion engine into them and that he would be organized into smaller community, around food and energy at the beginning of the most just science the decade in the history of human kind. it behooves all of us to understand that this has been challenging and will continue to be challenging. but we can do that. we can address climate change in a timely fashion. we can avert the worst just after the climate change, and in so doing, we can bring a much better quality of life for all citizens of this planet and certainly to the ecosystem upon which we depend, ah,

in people across the planet. i'm spending an increasing amount of time online from work meetings and catching up with friends to movie streaming and shopping. we are now more reliant than ever on platform which generate and store data. but this data doesn't just vanish into thin air. it comes at a very real environmental costs. everything we do on line passes through data centers, which consume huge amounts of entity and emit nearly as much c o 2 as the airline industry. i'm in no way to see how one center is honda thing. the energy of these fuel was to stole our digital information without a heavy comp and footprint. but this is a famous tourist attraction and photo hot but focused on no way. it rolls hundreds of thousands of visitors every year. i'm curious to find out what people know about the data, all these photos generate. so when you take a selfie,

it land somewhere, have you ever imagined where that could be? i think the 1st time i would imagine if you're asking, i haven't been thinking about it. no, i have no idea. i send it to google, i guess in the in the cloud. and do you know what the cloud is? storage place i the night myself, most people only have vague ideas of where all our data is kept. i've come to university of savannah to meet an expert on data storage and find out where ourselves, he's end up. the photo is out will be stored in the memory of their phone. and then if you'll share the photo while you want to back up the photo into the cloud, it will end up in some data center remotely could be in europe. it could be also in a remote fi across the atlantic. and both they have accumulated in those data

center and those wall are for us to have a big, big data center. so the, there are problem for sustainability. how long? how much data we have to store them? in recent years, many of us have been moving into the digital realm and even more so under the corporate 19 pandemic year for the study. so that our, unlike habits take a heavy toll on the environment, a typical search which passes through data centers processing and storing information requires as much energy as illuminating a 60 what light bulb for 17 seconds. that doesn't sound like much until you realize google alone processes 3500000000 searches a day. around one percent of electricity globally is consumed by data centers, many of which provide for note storage facilities or what is also known as the

cloud is estimated that in 10 years this our data network grows. almost 7 percent of all electricity will be used just to power and qu huge service, preserving everything from billions of family photos to big data on space travel. so where and how you stole your data can make all the difference. and no way is ahead of the game on this, since it's powered nearly a 100 percent by renewable energy, most of which comes from hydro power. i'm on my way to atlanta, and i need to i've had to have an old military storage. but instead of storing to pito hits, they now stole billions of bites of information all over the world. the underground green mountain data center which opened in 2013 is carbon neutral. it's rod and hydropower from water wrestled us up the mountains. so question nice to meet you. nice to meet you as well. ah,

oh wow. this is like being in a james film. i can see that this is very secure. this is very secure. wow, thank you. both. this is how it looks when we took over there to fight here is empty space, but it will not be empty forever. as soon as we grow, this will be a data center as well. so know we're entering what people refer to as the cloud. this is where our customers are running their server storage equipment. so what kind of information is still in here? it could be anything from storage, your picture to national critical infrastructure if you'd be at home doing

their lecture online. so many people when they think about the clouds, they think out in the open as they're things white and fluffy. but actually the cloud is ms tally and it's black and it's noisy, it's black and it's noisy. and it come to a lot of power and generate a lot of heath to see how the center manager says it's a quick write down the oh, where in the future road, this is where all the green energy flows through into the data. all. so this is basically the giant engine of this data center. the consumption in this data center with all the different data holes at consumes the power equal to about 20000 household. while this may seem a lot,

some of the biggest data centers consume as much power as the city of a 1000000 people. every click you do on your device, generate at liberty inside a data center summer. if it's in norway, it's green and renewable as well. so only using green energy this data center is reducing its impact on the environment by cooling its service using cold water from the nearby deep salt water inlet of yard. so while most data centers youth around 40 percent of the energy to cool servers, which would otherwise reach a 100 degrees celsius in minutes, this data center get to cooling free from nature. so if it were producing the cold water use to cool the cloud, a 5 ammonia cold sea water from the fuel it into the base. and next to the data center, this water, which is constantly 8 degrees celsius, is then pumped up through the heat exchanger cooling down,

separate water pipes that circulate through the data center. the warmed up, feeble to then exits back into the fjord at around 20 degrees celsius. where'd quickly cool down again? the green mountain data center in no way is unique because of the fuel cooling the servers. and the way in which they've repurposed an old site. but all over scandinavia tech giants like facebook, google and microsoft are building huge data centers running on hydro and wind power . in fact, investment in nordic data centers is set to double by 2025. thank you, or be both fully electric. i'm meeting theory kelvin, a local matri ologist in green investor who's confident this trend will continue. so this is where the hydropower is. yes, the all the flow me hydro station, it's actually the world's longest 4444 step

over a 100 years old. so be careful. so i can see that it's old from this old train here . here you see the old pipe coming down from the mountain, so all the water still flowing high speed in the pi, creating electricity when they hit the turbine. so you have to use for nature gives us so in norway we have incredible rain or the concrete have sun. yeah, we also have wind, but here it's rain that gives us the electricity. scandinavia will be important to the world for data storage. i think scandinavia will be very important for future data storage. it's a cold climate if you can use the cold fury to to cool down the data center. we have the hydro poll word to run data centers. however, i think we also need to be even more responsible and take action that each one of

us. and for instance, if we are talking on both data storage, we need to be concerned about how many celsius we need to take home many emails, some snaps and text message. we need to send me though we can't see it. our use of digital devices has an impact on the world around us. this is only set to grow. nearly 60 percent of the wealth population is already online and around $1000000.00 new uses sign up each day. as our reliance and data expands, we need to find greenway to manage it here in no way. i've seen how this can be done. and i think we really need to learn from examples like this and make sure that we balance our modern lives with what the planet can sustain in which so many of us stuck a time during the pans that make it perhaps hard to see that the world really has been given a golden opportunity for green recovery commitments are happening all over the

place as nations businesses, cities investors pledge met 0 carbon targets by 2015. but right now the 21st is the key. yeah. not just under a decade, determine the future of the planet around the world. already seen glimpses the green society, the could be our last year, renewables over to fossil fuels as a main source of electricity in europe. a new case in australia is a solar panels on rooftop the one in for hime, the. nor was that photo complex and morocco 7, it's 1st phase and it's already producing enough energy to power the city of my ra cash. twice those 60 percent of monthly call cells and know what are electric diesel cars will be banned there in 2025. the solutions are already bad because needs go global. make a real difference. ought to have shown that the green and prosper future.

ah, russellville and southern england, where 2 farmers turn safari park pioneers, a bits. the tract is nature in the driving seat. i was just absolutely astonishing the life, the poor, back even the very 1st life. and miguel sophie, i, cynthia when one by your company revolutionizing the system, you think blend and artificial intelligence here in flight. you have, you have the right phone else are 0, getting close to the people most affected by those in power is often dangerous, but it's absolutely vital stories. if you tell us upside in this area, we pushed as far forward as we can to the front line. now the smell of death is overpowering. a lot of the stories that we cover highly complex,

so it's very important that we make them is understandable as we can to as many people as possible no matter how much they know about a given crisis or issue as algebra. correspondence that will be strive to do. ah, haiti's prime minister has sacked the country's chief prosecutor who wants him charged over the july assassination of president silver. no, marie. ah . hello, i'm diamond jordan. this is al jazeera ally from coming up 3 former us intelligence operatives agreed to pay a $1700000.00 fine. the working at packets for the united arab emirates.
