Task 35 des IEA Energy Storage TCP bearbeitete Flexible Sektorkopplung (FSC) durch Implementierung von Energie­speichern und untersuchte die Rolle von Energie­speichern im Zusammen­hang mit dem Konzept der Sektorkopplung. Als Sektoren gelten die Bedarfssektoren Elektrizität, Heizung/Kühlung und Mobilität. FSC wurde definiert, Beispiele für FSC wurden beschrieben und Studien zum Einsatz von FSC in lokalen und im deutschen Energiesystem durchgeführt.

Wie schaffen es Energieinnovationen in die Umsetzung? Dieser Bericht bietet einen umfassenden Überblick über aktuelle Fortschritte und neue Herausforderungen – basierend auf über 150 Innovationsbeispielen und einer Umfrage unter Fachleuten aus 34 Ländern.

Der Bericht bietet einen detaillierten Überblick über die Entwicklung und den aktuellen Stand des Marktes für erneuerbare Gase in Österreich und gibt Handlungsempfehlungen.

The Global EV Outlook 2024 is an annual report that analyzes the latest trends and projections in electric mobility worldwide. It examines the growth of electric vehicle (EV) sales, infrastructure development, battery demand, and market investments. The report also evaluates the impact of EV adoption on electricity consumption, oil demand, and greenhouse gas emissions, while providing insights into policy frameworks and strategies for accelerating the transition to clean mobility. This edition includes a special focus on EV affordability, second-hand markets, and the lifecycle emissions of electric vehicles and their batteries

The World Energy Outlook 2024 provides an in-depth analysis of the global energy landscape, focusing on three key themes: energy security, clean energy transitions, and geopolitical uncertainty. Against a backdrop of rising geopolitical tensions and increasing climate risks, the report examines the shifting dynamics of energy supply and demand, the role of renewables in decarbonization, and the challenges of scaling up clean energy investments. It highlights the growing influence of electrification, clean technology advancements, and energy policy shifts on the future of global energy markets. The report also explores potential scenarios for energy transitions and their impact on economic and environmental sustainability.

The transition to a low-carbon energy system requires a secure and sufficient supply of critical materials for electric vehicle (EV) batteries. While global resources are available, the key challenge lies in scaling up production to meet rising demand by 2030. This report examines the supply-demand dynamics of key materials such as lithium, cobalt, nickel, and graphite, assesses potential bottlenecks, and explores technological innovations that could mitigate material constraints. It provides insights into policy strategies to ensure a resilient, sustainable, and cost-effective supply chain for EV batteries.

Die österreichische Kreislaufwirtschaftsstrategie betont die große Bedeutung von Normen und Standards, um Systemlösungen im Sinne der Kreislaufwirtschaft skalierbar zu machen. Es wird die Relevanz der internationalen Zusammenarbeit hervorgehoben und auf Österreichs aktive Teilnahme an der ISO TC 323 „Circular Economy“ verwiesen.

Since batteries account for a significant part of the total cost of EVs, R&D continues worldwide to develop abuse-tolerant and affordable batteries with higher energy density. IEA HEV Task 34 “Batterieries” which was financed by the common fund of the IEA Technology Cooperation Programme (TCP) on Hybrid and Electric Vehicles (HEV) within the framework of the International Energy (IEA).

This is the 2024 Annual report for the HEV TCP – an international collaboration of 18 countries exploring cutting-edge questions in hybrid and electric vehicles. This report sets out the background to the partnership, gives updates on ongoing projects and on member countries’ work, and gives a set of contact details for more information.

In line with the European Green Deal’s goal of achieving climate neutrality by 2050, 15 EU-funded projects are introducing renewable fuel technologies that will support the clean energy transition in the transport sector and help EU’s energy independence. The results are described in this brochure from May 2024.
