Rolls-Royce Power Systems has outlined its road map for climate neutrality: Net Zero@Power Systems. In a white paper accompanying the rollout of the road map, Dr Preiss notes that the engines that are the most relevant for Rolls-Royce Power Systems are off-highway engines in a power range starting at 560 kW up to around 10,000 kW.

Otherwise, fuel switching can produce net climate damages (more radiative forcing) for decades. since natural gas has relatively low carbon intensity, releasing less carbon dioxide (CO 2 ) per unit of usable energy than other fossil fuels, it is often assumed that switching to natural gas is comparatively beneficial for the climate.
