Webinar: Scenarios for deep decarbonisation of the EU industry
Highlighting technological innovation, addressing systemic change
In the EU and its Member States, the aim is to reduce emissions of greenhouse gases up to a minimum and to use energy more efficiently. Decarbonisation of industry plays a key role in reaching this goal.
SET-Nav partner NTNU participated in the CenSES 2018 “Energy and climate conference: Clean Energy for All”, which took place on 22 November 2018, in Oslo, Norway. At the conference Ruud Egging (NTNU) presented preliminary insights from the SET-Nav pathways, and disseminated modelling results through the presentation “Insights from large-scale multi-model analyses of the EU Energy transition”.
The EU Commission tries to determine by the reform of emissions trading during the 4th trading period, the original idea of this market-based instrument to meet. At the same time, however, competitiveness, especially in the energy-intensive industry that is heavily affected, should also be maintained. How this should be implemented in concrete terms or how the situation will affect German companies in particular was further explained in detail by the speakers from BMU and DEHSt. Further
