The Expert Council on Climate Issues reports that the immediate action programs for buildings and transport cannot ensure compliance with climate targets. EWI Director Marc Oliver Bettzüge is part of the panel.
This is shown by a new EWI index. The energy system needs be well prepared for the ramp-up of electric vehicles (EVs). A new EWI index shows the most prepared European countries for the electrification of the transport sector.
Options for flexibility and decarbonization in an integrated energy system are shown in the final report of the Virtual Institute “Electricity to Gas and Heat”, in which the EWI was involved.
An infrastructure for transporting CO2 between sources and sinks is needed to achieve climate neutrality. It is now important to put the legal framework in place, recommends a new EWI policy brief.
Energy prices could remain significantly above historical price levels in the medium term. The possible price development for natural gas, hard coal, oil, and electricity up to 2030 is shown in a new EWI report.
