In addition to high oil prices and the financial crisis, the increased use of new renewable energy sources, such as biofuels for road transport and wind energy for electricity generation, had a noticeable and mitigating impact on CO 2 emissions. Fossil oil consumption decreased by one per cent, due to high prices and more biofuels.

The Japanese government certainly plays a large role here and has been advocating for hydrogen power for years — much, in the same way, China, Europe, and (to a lesser extent) the United States have been pushing all-electric vehicles. Presently, the vast majority of hydrogen is produced using coal or natural gas as feedstocks.

Because of the lower carbon/hydrogen ratio of methane (CH 4 ) relative to gasoline, CO 2 emissions from the combustion of natural gas are approximately 75% of those of gasoline for a given amount of energy production. emissions are reduced by around 25% relative to the use of gasoline for the same engine efficiency.
