The 2040 milestones that #Europe must meet to achieve #ClimateNeutrality by 2050.

Major PIK modelling study provides guidance on the required pace of transition to fossil-free technologies.

#EU dependence on #gas and #oil imports falls by 60 percent.

🚗⚡ #EFuels – The Future of #InternalCombustionEngines and #Fuels Explained

How much of a #future do they still have?

In this #Zoomposium with #ChristopherHebling, Director at #FraunhoferISE and Board Member of the Forum for #FutureEnergies e.V., it becomes clear:

🔌 As Europe works to strengthen #energysecurity on its path to #climateneutrality, #electrifying industrial process heat is a clear opportunity to cut both #emissions and fossil fuel import dependence.

⚡️ With new support schemes being developed – including under the forthcoming Industrial Decarbonisation Bank – an important question persists: how does the carbon intensity of today’s power mix shape the real world impact of #electrification? 1/x

My Comment: Our #future needs education, a global sense of #unity, a focus on important #goals: #climateneutrality, new technologies or space exploration. But in #Germany, as elsewhere, signs point to #nationalism, #xenophobia, #racism. #AfD and other #rightwing activists are the #wrong path. Inter alia, I see negative influences also in some German #duelingfraternities.

Net-zero scenario is ‘cheapest option’ for UK - At least if you take climate damages into account.

(And quite affordable even if you don’t. Especially compared to some other recent UK policy choices one can mention)
