The combustion of bioenergy is considered to be carbon-neutral (following the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change\u2019s [IPCC] 2006 Guidelines for National Greenhouse Gas Inventories), with energy-related CO2 emissions in the production of bioenergy feedstocks or the conversion of biofuels being accounted for within the agriculture and other energy transformation sectors. CO2 emissions from non-energy activities predominately arise through agriculture, forestry and other land use, and accounted for 7% of all anthropogenic CO2 emissions in 2017. These emissions will also need to be reduced in order to meet the goals of the Paris Agreement.&nbsp; <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>A secure and sustainable energy system with net-zero emissions results in a new generation of major fuels.<\/strong>&nbsp;The security of today\u2019s global energy system is underpinned in large part by mature global markets in three key fuels \u2013 coal, oil and natural gas \u2013 which together account for about 70% of global final energy demand. Electricity, hydrogen, synthetic fuels and bioenergy end up accounting for a similar share of demand in the Sustainable Development Scenario as fossil fuels do today. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\"><p>Quicker progress towards net-zero emissions will depend on faster innovation in electrification, hydrogen, bioenergy and CCUS.<\/p><cite>The International Energy Agency (IEA)<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">An energy sector transition to net-zero CO2 emissions by 2070 of the kind depicted in the Sustainable Development Scenario requires a radical technological transformation of the energy sector.
