In der aktuellen Diskussion zur Stromversorgung wird häufig unterstellt, dass das Zieldreieck aus Klimaschutz, Versorgungsicherheit und Wirtschaftlichkeit nur durch einen Mix verschiedener Energieträger erreichbar sei. Die erneuerbaren Energien alleine könnten es nicht schaffen. Doch es gibt gute Gründe, diese Annahme infrage zu stellen

Modernization scenarios for iron and steel industry towards meeting the climate change mitigation ta...

Volodymyr Shatokha

Climate change mitigation is increasingly important driver behind current and future modernization of steel industry, which globally accounts for 6.7% of anthropogenic and 31% of industrial CO2 emissions. Historically, steel production was always coupled with CO2 emissions. The potential for production growth, including that from virgin raw materials, is still high-even if technology advancement ... [Show full abstract] will result in lower steel intensity of industrialization in the developing countries. Hence CO2 emissions from steel sector shall inevitably increase in a long term. Nevertheless, International Energy Agency (IEA) in its 2 Degrees Scenario (2DS, describes energy system consistent with limiting global warming to 2°C with 80% probability) sets 28% CO2 emissions reduction target for steel sector in 2050 compared to 2011 despite growth of production by 51% projected for the same period. In this paper possibilities for decoupling the CO2 emissions from production growth towards reaching climate change mitigation targets are studied.

Motivating Green Growth

Mark Huberty

Climate change mitigation requires a transformation of modern energy systems. That transformation carries with it serious and intertwined technical, political, and economic consequences. The technical shift from today’s fossil fuel-based energy system to some low-emissions alternative faces an array of technical uncertainties, will require a very long time, and provides few obvious economic ... [Show full abstract] advantages. Along the way, however, it will impose acute economic costs. This implies that political the opposition to change will be—and has been—well-organized and powerful compared to relatively weak, if ardent, proponents. Therefore, successful climate change mitigation will require policymakers to design policy that can discover potential economic advantages from systems transformation, and capitalize on those advantages to build supportive coalitions. Many mainstream policies—including carbon pricing—do not do so. Absent coalitions sustained by acute economic interests in long-term climate change mitigation, serious emissions reduction will prove difficult.

Grand Technologies for Grand Energy Challenges: A Futuristic Scenario for Solar Energy in the Age of...

Vahid Moosavi

Instead of getting involved in either extremes of dispute around climate change as one of our grand challenges, we opened the space of potential policy responses from a systemic view and showed why current climate change mitigation policies are not successful as planned. Further, as a potential futuristic scenario, neither a projection nor a prediction, that attracts further discussions, we ... [Show full abstract] showed how solar based energy systems are different than other current energy systems and how we can conceive of them as grand technologies which dissolve the whole landscape of energy management in the age of information.

Um(welt)orientierung großer Energiekonzerne? Die großen Vier und ihr Beitrag zum Klimaschutz

June 2014

Dagmar Kiyar

Ausgehend davon, dass einerseits die Dekarbonisierung des Energiesystems entscheidend für die Lösung der Klimaproblematik ist und andererseits die Versorgung mit Strom unabdingbar ist als soziale wie wirtschaftliche Grundlage einer Gesellschaft, wird in der vorliegenden Untersuchung die Rolle der vier großen deutschen Energieversorgungsunternehmen, RWE, E.ON, Vattenfall und EnBW im ... [Show full abstract] klimapolitischen Zusammenhang untersucht. Unter der Zielsetzung einer Optimierung des klimapolitischen Instrumentariums werden die großen Vier sowohl als Adressaten klimapolitischer Entscheidungen als auch als Mitwirkende bei der Gestaltung von Klimapolitik betrachtet. Dies erfordert eine interdisziplinäre Herangehensweise mit politikwissenschaftlichen (Multi-Level Governance) und wirtschaftswissenschaftlichen (Corporate Governance, Stakeholder-Theorie und Corporate Social Responsibility) Ansätzen. Dabei wird der Tatsache Rechnung getragen, dass das klimapolitische Umfeld von einem Mehrebenensystem gekennzeichnet und der unternehmerische Handlungsrahmen von verschiedensten Stakeholdern bestimmt wird.
