future-proof economies after the Covid-19 pandemic, improvements of security of affordable energy supply and energy independence are driving the uptake of renewable energy.
Given the differences in renewable energy deployment status and approaches to policymaking, there is a large potential for knowledge [...] the knowledge exchange among member states by providing an overview of renewable energy deployment and policymaking in the region. It points out recent trends and developments in both the deployment of different renewable energy technologies and supporting policies in the UNECE member states. By doing [...] sustainable energy supply. In turn, this will help achieve national and global energy and climate targets and the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
The report was issued on behalf of the Federal Ministry for Economic Affairs and Climate Action as part of the project “UNECE Renewable Energy
final energy demand in a renewable global energy system in 2050. Ecological and economic necessity to direct investments towards powerfuels, now / CO2-neutral production requires committed expansion of renewable energies and Direct Air Capture technologies Study: Powerfuels in a Renewable Energy World [...] conclusion of the study "Powerfuels in a Renewable Energy World" commissioned by the Global Alliance Powerfuels and conducted by the Finnish LUT University. It is based on a transformation scenario of a global energy system that consists entirely of renewable energy sources in 2050, in line with the Paris [...] hydrogen, e-kerosene, e-diesel or ammonia, which are produced using renewable energy. Andreas Kuhlmann, spokesman for the Global Alliance Powerfuels: "Alongside renewable electricity, powerfuels will be a pillar of the future global energy supply and an indispensable component of a climate-neutral global

the core findings of the study “Powerfuels in a Renewable Energy World“ by the German Energy Agency (dena) and LUT University, which is discussed at the Global-Alliance-Powerfuels-Conference. The study describes a transformation path of the world energy system compatible with the Paris agreement. Powerfuels [...] trade of renewable energy possible and contribute to the decarbonisation of many applications and sectors, which cannot be powered economically with renewable electricity for a long time to come.“ Cooperation is key for the market start up, according to Glenda Napier, CEO of conference partner Energy Cluster [...] Powerfuels are synthetic gaseous or liquid non-biofuels that draw their energy content from renewable electricity. The conference conducted in cooperation with the Energy Cluster Denmark shows once again: the global development of powerfuel capacity is accelerating. To reach the long-term climate goals

In 2020, the AHK Uruguay, together with the German
– by operating loads on the basis of price signals. This can help to integrate fluctuating renewable energies into the electric power system, balance production and demand fluctuations, provide balancing energy and relieve congested grid sections. At the same time, companies can tap new sources of income [...] The expansion of renewable energies and the resulting gain in fluctuating power input are increasing the need for more flexibility in the electric power system. One option for providing more flexibility in the electric power system is to match electricity consumption more closely with electric power [...] ization of DSM. Although China's DSM programs have high potential to succeed, they require substantial efforts in resolving key issues. The German Energy Agency (dena) has recently published a background paper that provides insights into DSM market fields in Germany and shares experiences from two major
dena has conducted a study on the topic of sustainable cooling of buildings. The study contains an overview of the potential for the use of renewable energies in buildings and helpful suggestions for reducing electricity consumption in cooled buildings. Furthermore, suggestions for effective shading
TWh/year of renewable electricity for DAC kerosene production alone. Europe, as much as 2,000 TWh/year. By comparison, Europe produced about 1,700 TWh/year of renewable electricity for all end uses in 2021. This means that by 2050, it would need to generate more than all of today's renewable electricity [...] analyses are important for putting concrete figures on the energy transition. Direct Air Capture has an important role to play in fossil-free aviation. But the challenge is enormous. Are Europe and the U.S. ready to dedicate so much renewable power to fossil-free aviation? Or should we consider other [...] fossil-free by 2050. To do so, it will require synthetic kerosene made from green hydrogen and sustainable CO2, so-called e-kerosene. A study by the German Energy Agency (dena) in collaboration with LUT Uni-versity (LUT) and Ludwig-Bölkow-Systemtechnik GmbH (LBST) comes to the conclusion that to produce e-kerosene
