The source adds the following note: "The ETC has not modelled a specific energy system scenario, but we have developed illustrative pathways, which aim to provide a sense of the order of magnitude of the probable scale of deployment of different solutions that would make it possible to reach close to net-zero carbon emissions from the energy and industrial system (without offsets from the land use sector) by mid-century."

Energy mix of the decarbonized shipping industry by source 2050
Electricity is estimated to cover about ** percent of the shipping industry's energy consumption. This statistic shows a projection for the energy mix of the shipping industry under a zero net carbon scenario. To achieve zero net emissions by mid-century, the global shipping sector might have to rely on ammonia for ** percent of its energy demand.
