  • Encyclopedia of Sustainability Science and Technology Series
    Encyclopedia of Sustainability Science and Technology Series Editor-in-Chief Robert A. Meyers The Encyclopedia of Sustainability Science and Technology series (ESST) addresses the grand challenge for science and engineering today. It provides unprecedented, peer-reviewed coverage in more than 600 separate articles comprising 20 topical volumes, incorporating many updates from the first edition as well as new articles. ESST establishes a foundation for the many sustainability and policy evaluations being performed in institutions worldwide. An indispensable resource for scientists and engineers in developing new technologies and for applying existing technologies to sustainability, the Encyclopedia of Sustainability Science and Technology series is presented at the university and professional level needed for scientists, engineers, and their students to support real progress in sustainability science and technology. Although the emphasis is on science and technology rather than policy, the Encyclopedia of Sustainability Science and Technology series is also a com- prehensive and authoritative resource for policy makers who want to under- stand the scope of research and development and how these bottom-up innovations map on to the sustainability challenge.

  • Professorship of Renewable Energy Carriers Biomass
    Institute of Energy Technology – Professorship of Renewable Energy Carriers Invitation to a Seminar Date: December 9, 2019 Time: 11:00-12:00 Place: ETH Zürich, ML-J25 Speaker: Prof. Dr.-Ing. Martin Kaltschmitt Hamburg University of Technology Institute of Environmental Technology and Energy Economics D-21073 Hamburg Title: Biomass-based Fuels: The silver bullet for GHG-neutral mobility? To reduce GHG emissions also within the mobility sector biomass-based fuels have been pro- moted by the EU throughout the last decades – and in parallel, they have been more and more controversial discussed especially by the environmental NGO’s. Against this back- ground, the overarching goal of this presentation is to give an overview about the existing pathways for the provision of transportation fuels fulfilling the given fuel standards (e.g. CEN- standards, ASTM-standards) based on various types of biogenic feedstock. For that, the basic feedstock availability as well as the given technical challenges are discussed in detail. Based on this analysis, conclusions are drawn about the role of these fuels to contribute to the defossilation of the mobility system on a global scale. Additionally questions related to the given alternatives are tackled in this respect. Martin Kaltschmitt studied petroleum engineering at Clausthal University of Technology, Ger- many. He received his PhD in the field of renewable energies at Stuttgart University, Germany. Afterwards he headed a research group in the field of biomass / renewable energy at the same university where he completed his Habilitation. After a research stay at King's College in Lon- don, UK and at the University of California at Berkeley, USA he was promoted to managing director of the Leipziger Institute for Energy GmbH.

It also examines whether the current development is achieving the targets and how the targets perform in the light of the Paris Agreement. 13 to 52 % of electricity from RE is targeted for 2030. The necessary RE expansion exceeds the current expansion in most countries. Only in Morocco and Jordan are projects indicating that the targets might be reached. From a resource perspective, a much stronger expansion is possible. Beneficial locations exist allowing to cover the domestic demand or even an export of electrical energy or derived energy carrier. Furthermore, especially PV, but also wind systems, can generate electricity in many areas for lower cost than fossil fuel fired power plants.

  • Biofuels – on the Way to Sustainability? Opinion
    Journal of Renewable Energy and Sustainable Development (RESD) Volume 2, Issue 2, December 2016 - ISSN 2356-8569 http://dx.doi.org/10.21622/RESD.2016.02.2.060 Biofuels – On the way to sustainability? Opinion Prof. Dr.-Ing. Martin Kaltschmitt Head of the Institute of Environmental Technology and Energy Economics (IUE) Hamburg University of Technology (TUHH) Hamburg, Germany Email: [email protected] Biofuels contribute to cover the strongly increasing energy demand within our global transportation system. The current status of biofuel production can be summarized on a world wide scale as follows [1, 2]: Bioethanol. About 97 Billion l of ethanol (2,218 PJ) were produced in 2015. Roughly 57 % were provided within the US (56.1 Billion l; 1,282 PJ; primarily from corn) and approx. 28 % in Brazil (26.8 Billion l; 614 PJ; mainly from sugar cane). The remaining 15 % were produced in Europe and Asia. Biodiesel / HVO. In 2015, ca. 32 Billion l (1,050 PJ) Biodiesel / HVO have been sold. Brazil provided ca. 3.5 Billion l (116 PJ) and Germany roughly 3.2 Billion l (105 PJ). The market in North America is dominated by the US with 16 % of the global production (168 PJ). The remaining rest is widely distributed throughout the world and comes from smaller markets like Argentine, Indonesia and other countries. Other biofuels. To a very minor extend, also bio-methane as well as pure vegetable oil are used within the transport sector. But on a global scale the contribution of these options is negligible. Related to the overall energy demand for transportation purposes this biofuel use of roughly 3.3 EJ (2015) represents a share of less than 3 % [3].

  • Speakers: Cvs & Abstracts
    European Biofuels Technology Platform: Stakeholder Plenary Meeting Speakers: CVs & Abstracts WELCOME & KEYNOTE ADDRESS Jose Manuel Silva, European Commission, Directorate General for Research From 1971 until his incorporation into SOIVRE, while an inspector in the Ministry of Economy and Trade, he was a professor at the School of Agricultural Engineers in Madrid and worked in the private sector in export companies as well as on animal food projects. From 1979 until 1982 he was Employed in the Directorate general of Internal Trade and in the Directorate General of Trade Policy at the Ministry of Economy and Trade, Madrid. In 1983 he became a Counsellor in agricultural affairs and member of the delegation for the Spanish accession negotiation at the Secretaria de Estado, Madrid. Since 1986 he has worked for the Directorate of Agriculture in various capacities. In 1999 he was made Director General for Agriculture and Rurual Development, and in January 2006 became Director General for Research. Key Points • The European Union is strongly dependent on fossil fuels to satisfy its transport needs • Security of supply and sustainable fuel production are at the core of our energy and transport policies • Biofuels are currently the only viable short-to-medium term alternative to fossil fuels • Research is a key element to address the challenges inherent to an increased level of biofuel production and use, in particular their performance in terms of greenhouse gas reduction throughout the entire production chain • These challenges are not only technical

    XVII BALTIC CONFERENCE ON INTELLECTUAL COOPERATION MATHEMATICS FOR SOCIETY 28–29 June 2021 Estonian Academy of Sciences Tallinn 1 ORGANISERS OF THE CONFERENCE: ORGANISERS OF THE PRE-SEMINAR ON ENERGETICS: _____ Compiled by Terje Tuisk Edited by Margit Sepp Designed by Kaspar Ehlvest Photos by Reti Kokk “Never alone again,” said the people who restored the independence of the Baltic States three decades ago. This message was coined into various agree- ments in many ways, starting from the Baltic Assembly almost 30 years ago, restoring diplomatic relationships with many countries soon thereafter, entering the European Union a dozen years later, and reaching the world- wide scene by serving as members of the United Nations Security Council. Science and scientists are, by defi nition, never alone even though their labs and universities are physically separated. The voice of scientists, however, becomes much stronger when their efforts are concerted. The academic FOREWORD communities of the Baltic States realised this aspect many decades ago. They are gathering for the 17th time to rejoice and strengthen that idea, now together with sister academies in Finland and Hamburg. The importance of the voice of science is rapidly growing as the competi- tiveness of countries, regions and even continents greatly depends on the ability of society to extract competence from the academic landscape for the benefi t of all people. The more complicated are contemporary challenges, the larger is the role of science, scientists and scientifi c cooperation in supporting the needs of society. Helmut Schwarz, a foreign member of the Estonian Academy of Sciences, has stressed that without science we are unlikely to be able to construct a future that is worth living.
