The qualitative analysis shows that amongst the main drivers of demand for LNG are environmental regulations and the price difference between LNG and other fuels. The main barriers are uncertainty about the availability of LNG in ports, about technical standards, and about the second hand-price of LNG ships. The case studies show that in most cases LNG is an attractive option from the ship-owner perspective if the fuel price difference is larger than today, as is the case in many projections for 2020-2030. With a smaller price difference between LNG and petroleum fuels, most cost-benefit analyses have a negative outcome. The future market scenarios indicate that there will be between 2,500 and 4,000 LNG ships in the EU, using 1-5 million tonnes of LNG in the year 2030. Extrait Cette étude est une analyse du développement du marché GNL dans l'UE avec une analyse qualitative des principaux facteurs stimulant et limitant l'utilisation de GNL comme carburant pour navires, avec une analyse quantitative de la faisabilité économique de l'utilisation de GNL dans dix ports et un développement de scénarios pour la consommation de GNL de 2020 à 2030. L'analyse qualitative montre que les réglementations environnementales ainsi que la différence du prix entre GNL et les autres carburants sont les facteurs essentiels stimulant la demande de GNL. Les principales barrières sont l'incertitude concernant la disponibilité de GNL dans les ports, les normes techniques et le prix d'occasion de navires GNL. Les études de cas montrent que, dans la plupart des cas, GNL est une option attrayante du point de vue du propriétaire du navire si la différence entre le prix du carburant est supérieure à celle aujourd'hui, ce qui est le cas dans un grand nombre de projections pour 2020 - 2030. Si la différence de prix entre GNL et les carburants dérivés du pétrole est inférieure, la plupart des analyses prix-bénéfice produisent un résultat négatif. Les scénarios du marché dans le futur indiquent la présence de 2500 à 4000 navires GNL dans l'UE qui consommeront 1–5 millions de tonnes de GNL en 2030.

De maatregelpakketten zijn tot stand gekomen in overleg met maatschappelijke partijen. De maatregelen zijn in het landelijke Waterkwaliteitsportaal (WKP) opgenomen en zijn in de Adviesnota samengevat. Voor waterschap Hollandse Delta is een deel van het pakket maatregelen voor de periode 2016-2021 nog niet door het Algemeen Bestuur vastgesteld en daarom in mei nog niet in het WKP was opgenomen. Voor de provincies geldt dat er nog aanvullende maatregelen in Natura2000 gebieden in bestuurlijke discussie zijn, deze zijn ook nog niet opgenomen in het WKP. De samengevatte cijfers in deze Adviesnota zijn gebaseerd op de informatie uit een download van het Waterkwaliteitsportaal d.d. 20 mei 2014 en 27 mei 2014 (enkel voor grondwater).

My deepest thanks goes to my interviewees. The valuable information you have given me has allowed me to produce this report. I would like to thank Deborah Harford from ACT (the Adaptation to Climate Change Team) at Simon Fraser University, with whom I have been doing an internship in Vancouver. She put me in contact with the City of Vancouver, which launched this project. Last but not least, a special thanks to my supervisor Maj-Britt Quitzau from Aalborg University, Copenhagen. Without her this work would not have become a reality. Thank you for spending your evenings on long-distance Skype calls with me and supporting me with all your great comments and ideas.

  • Assessment of Vessel Requirements for the U.S. Offshore Wind Sector
    Assessment of Vessel Requirements for the U.S. Offshore Wind Sector Prepared for the Department of Energy as subtopic 5.2 of the U.S. Offshore Wind: Removing Market Barriers Grant Opportunity 24th September 2013 Disclaimer This Report is being disseminated by the Department of Energy. As such, the document was prepared in compliance with Section 515 of the Treasury and General Government Appropriations Act for Fiscal Year 2001 (Public Law 106-554) and information quality guidelines issued by the Department of Energy. Though this Report does not constitute “influential” information, as that term is defined in DOE’s information quality guidelines or the Office of Management and Budget's Information Quality Bulletin for Peer Review (Bulletin), the study was reviewed both internally and externally prior to publication. For purposes of external review, the study and this final Report benefited from the advice and comments of offshore wind industry stakeholders. A series of project-specific workshops at which study findings were presented for critical review included qualified representatives from private corporations, national laboratories, and universities. Acknowledgements Preparing a report of this scope represented a year-long effort with the assistance of many people from government, the consulting sector, the offshore wind industry and our own consortium members. We would like to thank our friends and colleagues at Navigant and Garrad Hassan for their collaboration and input into our thinking and modeling. We would especially like to thank the team at the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) who prepared many of the detailed, technical analyses which underpinned much of our own subsequent modeling.

  • 'Panorama RES-Regio's'
    Toelichting Panorama RES De energietransitie in Nederland krijgt zijn beslag via een decentrale werkwijze: de Regionale Energiestrategie of RES. Er zijn dertig zogenaamde energieregio’s, die elk voor hun gebied onderzoeken waar en hoe het best duurzame elek- triciteit op land (wind en zon) opgewekt kan worden. De RES is een instrument om gezamenlijk keuzes te maken voor de opwekking van duurzame elektriciteit, de warmtetransitie in de gebouwde omgeving en de daarvoor benodigde opslag en energie-infrastructuur. Om gemeenten, provincies en waterschappen te helpen bij het opstellen van een RES, is van alle regio’s een serie kaarten gemaakt waarop cultuurhistorische elementen en karakteristieken zijn te zien. De kaarten zijn als GIS-viewer beschikbaar (https://www.cultureelerfgoed.nl/onderwerpen/bronnen-en-kaarten/overzicht/kaarten-regionale-ener- giestrategie-res). Van elk van de dertig regio’s is een korte karakteristiek gemaakt, die op hoofdlijnen de historisch-landschappelijke ontwikkelingen schetst. Deze zijn via de GIS-viewer per regio afzonderlijk te raadplegen als PDF. Van alle PDF’s teza- men is ook één verzameldocument gemaakt: Panorama RES, het nu voorliggende document. De karakteristieken in Panorama RES bevatten geen waardering van het landschappelijke erfgoed, of een uitputtende inventarisatie van al- lerlei elementen en patronen. Het zijn heel korte biografieën, gericht op de wordingsgeschiedenis van het landschap. Gebruikers kunnen met deze achtergrondinformatie afgewogen keuzes maken voor het opstellen van de RES. Het erf- goed kan zodoende benut worden voor toekomstige ontwikkelingen. De teksten zijn gebaseerd op Panorama Landschap, onderdeel van de Landschapsatlas van de RCE (https://www.land- schapinnederland.nl/panorama-landschap). Dat geeft voor heel Nederland in 78 regio’s een karakterschets van de geschiedenis van het landschap, vanuit het perspectief van eeuwenlange veranderingen.
