Carbon Capture, Storage and Use
Carbon Capture and Storage technologies (CCS) are moving from experiment toward commercial applications at a rapid pace, driven by urgent demand for carbon mitigation strategies. This book examines the potential role of CCS from four perspectives: technology development, economic competitiveness, environmental and safety impacts, and social acceptance. IEK-STE of Forschungszentrum Juelich presents this interdisciplinary study on CCS, based on methods of Integrated Technology Assessment. Following an introductory chapter by editor Wilhelm Kuckshinrichs, Part I of the book surveys the status of carbon capture technologies, and assesses the potential for research and development of applications...
Handbook of Input-Output Economics in Industrial Ecology
Industrial Ecology (IE) is an emerging multidisciplinary field. University departments and higher education programs are being formed on the subject following the lead of Yale University, The Norwegian University of Science and Technology (NTNU), Leiden University, University of Michigan at Ann Arbor, Carnegie Mellon University, University of California at Berkeley, Institute for Superior Technology in Lisbon, Eidgenössische Technische Hochschule (ETH) Zürich, and The University of Tokyo. IE deals with stocks and flows in interconnected networks of industry and the environment, which relies on a basic framework for analysis. Among others, Input-Output Analysis (IOA) is recognized as a key conceptual and analytical framework for IE. A major challenge is that the field of IOA manifests a long history since the 1930s with two Nobel Prize Laureates in the field and requires considerable analytical rigor. This led many instructors and researchers to call for a high-quality publication on the subject which embraces both state-of-the-art theory and principles as well as practical applications.
Innovation For Sustainability
The innovation system theory has to deal with climate change as it generates the intellectual tools to promote development. A unified innovation system theory that integrates the eradication of threats to nature with the promotion of development is critically important to advance an original pedigree and trajectory of epistemology. Africa must learn and appreciate the costs to itself from the way Europe industrialised. It can neither follow nor imitate the European pattern of industrialisation. It has to include in its own development agenda both the meeting of social needs and choosing a path of development that would not bring ecological harm in the process. The African innovation system has to evolve in a nature protecting - rather than hurting - system; in addition, social needs must be met rather than exacerbating the social inequalities path of development.
Sustainable Investing and Environmental Markets
Environmental asset classes are not a hope for tomorrow but a reality today. This new asset category promises to grow dramatically in the 21st Century as financial analysts, investors, and corporations around the world try to find ways to profit or reduce costs while promoting environmental social benefits. Sustainable Investing and Environmental Markets: Opportunities in a New Asset Class presents a groundbreaking new way to “do well and to do good”. With a combination of over 50 years of practical experience in the field of environmental finance, Richard Sandor, Nathan Clark, Murali Kanakasabai and Rafael Marques provide a solid preliminary understanding of the promising and transforma...
Climate Change – A Law Of Nature
Instead of adapting to the changing climate, all the relevant groups in German society have joined forces to combat climate change. No attempt has been made to avoid technical efforts or costly measures. The energy transition and the Green Deal have tremendous consequences for the state, society and individuals. Public debate has tended to ignore these consequences and has failed to consider the cost. Dr. Fabian Brunner analyses the mode of operation of the energy transition and comes to the conclusion that it has set in motion a spiral that will fundamentally transform the German economic system rather than the global climate. Not only the climate has "points of no return" after which interventions will no longer be possible. This also applies to the economy – when these points have been passed, it will no longer be possible to prevent an ext- reme loss of prosperity for future generations.
Carbon Dioxide Capture and Storage
IPCC Report on sources, capture, transport, and storage of CO2, for researchers, policy-makers and engineers.
Energietechnologien der Zukunft
Ausgewählte, wichtige Technologiefelder im Bereich Energieerzeugung, -verteilung und -verbrauch werden anhand ihrer technischen und wirtschaftlichen Entwicklungsziele, ihrer System- und Marktrelevanz sowie der wichtigsten Treiber und Hemmnisse dargestellt. Vor dem Hintergrund des heutigen technischen und ökonomischen Entwicklungsstandes werden zukünftige Forschungs- und Entwicklungsziele, im deutschen und perspektivisch im europäischen Energiesystem, für die nächsten 10 bis 15 Jahre identifiziert. In einer eigenen Technologie-Roadmap werden diese Fakten und Entwicklungen übersichtsartig zusammengefasst.
World Energy Outlook
The IEA's Economic Analysis Division (EAD), with input from other Divisions, produces the World Energy Outlook, the IEA's flagship publication. In even-numbered years, the EAD publishes a global energy survey, including detailed long-term projections of energy demand, energy supply and CO2 emissions. The "WEO" looks from 20 to 30 years into the future, and its projections are based on the World Energy Model . The "World Energy Outlook: Insights" series cover a single aspect of energy, like subsidies in 1999 and global supply in 2001. The WEO Insights series are published in odd-numbered years.
