LISTalks on Energy Transition: Challenges and Opportunities

 

The "LISTalks" conference series brings together stakeholders, researchers, industry and authorities to answer state of the art research and innovation questions on our environment, climate change, and sustainability in strategies and design.

The European Union (EU) is pushing for an Energy Transition aiming at net-zero carbon emissions in Europe by 2050. The decarbonisation of the energy system means a shift in the global energy sector from fossil-based systems for energy production and consumption to renewable energy sources such as wind or solar. This Energy Transition will bring about significant challenges in terms of resource use, system structure, scale, markets, economics, end-user behaviour and energy policy but will also be ground for opportunities to develop innovative solutions and services taking the most of information and communication technologies (ICT) to fulfil the vision of a fully digitalised, user centric, sustainable energy system supported by innovative energy markets, effective policies and efficient regulation.

Regarding its long-term strategy, the EU aims to be climate-neutral by 2050 – an economy with net-zero greenhouse gas emissions. This conference will bring 3 expert speakers with different backgrounds and experiences to address some of the pressing issues involving the topic of energy transition.

This session is moderated by André GUIMARAES MADUREIRA, Group Leader at Luxembourg Institute of Science and Technology, LU
