BETD Gabriel and Zypries Open the Third Berlin Energy Transition
Gabriel and Zypries open the third Berlin Energy Transition Dialogue Berlin, 20 March 2017. Foreign Minister Sigmar Gabriel and Minister for Economic Affairs Brigitte Zypries are opening the third Berlin Energy Transition Dialogue at the Federal Foreign Office in Berlin today. Numerous ministers, including from Argentina, China, Cuba, Denmark and the United Arab Emirates, as well as high-ranking delegations, business representatives and guests from more than 93 countries are expected. The Berlin Energy Transition Dialogue is being hosted by the Federal Government together with the German Renewable Energy Federation (BEE), the German Solar Industry Association (BSW-Solar), the consultancy firm eclareon and the German Energy Agency (dena) and is being accompanied by an extensive side events. On the second day of the conference tomorrow, Environment Minister Barbara Hendricks will speak on behalf of the Federal Government. The objective of the conference is to generate new ideas for the German Government’s energy agenda in the G20 process. The International Energy Agency (IEA) and the International Renewable Energy Agency (IRENA) will present their study “Perspectives for the Energy Transition: Investment Needs for a Low Carbon Energy System” at the conference. This study was carried out with support from the Federal Ministry of Economic Affairs and Energy and looks into which investments are necessary in order to achieve the Paris climate goals and how misguided investments in energy technologies that are harmful to the environment can be avoided. Foreign Minister Gabriel issued the following statement on this: “The energy transition has long ceased to be a national project. It is a global task and a mission for all of us, as well as a way to ensure a future of prosperity and stability. -

Options of Natural Gas Pipeline Reassignment for Hydrogen: Cost Assessment for a Germany Case Study
Options of Natural Gas Pipeline Reassignment for Hydrogen: Cost Assessment for a Germany Case Study Simonas CERNIAUSKAS,1(1) Antonio Jose CHAVEZ JUNCO,(1) Thomas GRUBE,(1) Martin ROBINIUS(1) and Detlef STOLTEN(1,2) (1) Institute of Techno-Economic Systems Analysis (IEK-3), Forschungszentrum Jülich GmbH, Wilhelm-Johnen-Str., D-52428, Germany (2) Chair for Fuel Cells, RWTH Aachen University, c/o Institute of Techno-Economic Systems Analysis (IEK-3), Forschungszentrum Jülich GmbH, Wilhelm-Johnen-Str., D- 52428, Germany Abstract The uncertain role of the natural gas infrastructure in the decarbonized energy system and the limitations of hydrogen blending raise the question of whether natural gas pipelines can be economically utilized for the transport of hydrogen. To investigate this question, this study derives cost functions for the selected pipeline reassignment methods. By applying geospatial hydrogen supply chain modeling, the technical and economic potential of natural gas pipeline reassignment during a hydrogen market introduction is assessed. The results of this study show a technically viable potential of more than 80% of the analyzed representative German pipeline network. By comparing the derived pipeline cost functions it could be derived that pipeline reassignment can reduce the hydrogen transmission costs by more than 60%. Finally, a countrywide analysis of pipeline availability constraints for the year 2030 shows a cost reduction of the transmission system by 30% in comparison to a newly built hydrogen pipeline system.

WORLD ENERGY OUTLOOK 2007 10:00 am – 11:3 0 am Friday, November 16, 2007 CSIS B1 Conference Level 1800 K Street, NW, Washington DC Nobuo Tanaka Executive Director, International Energy Agency Nobuo Tanaka commenced duties as IEA Executive Director on 1 S eptember 2007. Prior to that, he had been Director for Science, Technology and Ind ustry at the Paris -based Organiz ation for Economic Co -operation and Development (OECD). Mr. Tanaka began his career in 1973 in the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry (ME TI) in Tokyo. He has extensive national government and international experience within METI, the Embassy of Japan in Washington D.C. and the OECD. Mr. Tanaka first joined the OECD in 1989 as Deputy Director of the Directorate for Science, Technology and In dustry, and was promoted to Director in 1992. In 1995, he returned to METI and served in a number of high ranking positions, the most recent being Director -General, Multilateral Trade System Department, Trade Policy Bureau. In this role he led many trade n egotiat ions for the World Trade Organiz ation (WTO). In the energy field, Mr. Tanaka has covered a variety of experiences. He was responsible for Japan's involvement with the IEA and the G8 Energy Ministers' Meeting during the second oil crisis. In the late 1980s he participated in establishing the comprehensive energy policy of Japan and he also oversaw the implementation of Japan's international nuclear energy policy and led negotiations of bilateral nuclear agreements. Mr. Tanaka worked on formulating int ernational strategy as well as coordinating domestic environment policy and energy policy in the Kyoto COP3 negotiation. -
Dr Fatih Birol Executive Director International Energy Agency
Dr Fatih Birol Executive Director International Energy Agency Dr Fatih Birol has served as Executive Director of the International Energy Agency since September 2015. He was re-elected in January 2018 for a second four-year term, which will begin in September 2019. Under his leadership, the IEA has undertaken its first comprehensive modernisation programme since its creation in 1974. This effort focuses on three pillars: opening the doors of the IEA to include major emerging countries, such as Brazil, China, India, Indonesia, Mexico and South Africa who have joined the IEA Family, thus increasing its share of global energy demand from 38% to almost 75%; broadening the IEA’s security mandate to natural gas and electricity as well as oil; and making the IEA the global hub for clean energy technologies and energy efficiency. Prior to his nomination as Executive Director, Dr Birol spent over 20 years at the IEA, rising through the ranks to the position of Chief Economist responsible for the flagship World Energy Outlook publication. He is also the founder and chair of the IEA Energy Business Council, one of the world’s most active industry advisory groups in energy. Dr Birol has been named by Forbes Magazine among the most influential people on the world’s energy scene and was recognised by the Financial Times in 2017 as Energy Personality of the Year. He chairs the World Economic Forum’s (Davos) Energy Advisory Board and serves on the UN Secretary-General’s Advisory Board on ‘Sustainable Energy for All’. He is the recipient of numerous awards, including the Japanese Emperor’s Order of the Rising Sun, the Order of the Polar Star from the King of Sweden and the highest Presidential decorations from Austria, Germany and Italy.
