The goal of the initiative is to phase out Germany's nuclear power plants by the end of 2022, transform the energy system to become strongly reliant on renewable energy resources (min. 60% of the final energy consumption, min. 80% of the gross electricity consumption) and enhanced energy efficiency, and to reduce GHG emissions by 80- 95% by the year 2050 ...
Topics included: Enel Background; Enel Green Power; The eMobility Context and the Birth of Enel X; Acquisitions Made Along the Way. ...
Researchers are working to improve the efficiency of multi-layer solar cells. Richard Stevenson explores whether their practical benefits are more likely to be realized in space than on Earth ...
In Africa, the decarbonization of the manufacturing sector and economic growth and industrialization can go hand in hand; the choices the continent makes now will be critical for its future success and prosperity. ...
In this report, we’ve attempted to lay out our perspective. In section one, we describe the context of change and present a practical case for what is achievable by the middle of the century. In section two, we explore the impact of the transition on the sectors that rely most on oil and gas. ...
This report provides a global perspective on the energy transition in industry, with a focus on reducing CO2 emissions from industrial processes in cement, steel, ammonia, and ethylene production. ...
This 2021 Long-Term Strategy represents the next step: it lays out how the United States can reach its ultimate goal of net-zero emissions no later than 2050. The Long-Term Strategy shows that reaching netzero no later than 2050 will require actions spanning every sector of the economy ...
In this report, we explore the energy transition now occurring throughout the world, and its impact on industrials—companies from the utilities, chemicals, cement, metals and energy sectors. ...
Clean manufacturing of heavy and light commodities – from steel beams to bits and bytes – is achieved with a different geographical footprint and lower overall energy intensity than earlier in the century, driven by convergence of information and industrial technologies, business models, policy support, design and consumer choices, and investment requirements. ...
