Title: | Energy transition - Insights and trends / Energiewende - Einblicke und Ausblicke |
Abstract: | The success of the energy transition in relation to achieving a low carbon fossil-free energy of the future largely depends on the extent to which collective efforts are geared towards specific goals, as the actual transformation of the energy sector is shaped by many challenges and uncertainties. Pandemics, uninterrupted supply chains and ongoing conflicts add to the complexity of the situation. The International Energy Agency has published its “World Energy Outlook” since 1998 and demonstrates ways of achieving a decarbonised energy of the future based on different scenarios. Taking three energy scenarios as the starting point, possible routes and corresponding effects by 2050 are outlined. Das Gelingen der Energiewende in Richtung einer karbonärmeren und fossilfreien Energiezukunft wird maßgeblich davon abhängen, wie zielorientiert diese gemeinschaftlichen Anstrengungen wahrgenommen werden, denn die aktuelle Transformation des Energiesektors ist geprägt von unzähligen Herausforderungen und Unsicherheiten. Pandemien, unterbrochene Lieferketten und aktuelle Konflikte verstärken den Komplexitätsgrad. Seit 1998 veröffentlicht die internationale Energieagentur ihren “World Energy Outlook” und zeigt mit unterschiedlichen Szenarien mögliche Wege in eine dekarbonisierte Energiezukunft. Anhand dreier Energieszenarien werden mögliche Wege und deren Auswirkung bis 2050 skizziert. |
