Tracking Nordic Clean Energy Progress 2019
Tracking Nordic Clean Energy Progress 2019 is a brief, illustrative report that charts Nordic progress towards a carbon neutral society by highlighting the most prominent trends and examining scenarios where Nordic solutions can have a global impact. The report illustrates – for multiple technologies and key parameters – the latest progress in technology development and penetration, as well as market creation. Nordic Energy Research and the International Energy Agency (IEA) published a Nordic Energy Technology Perspectives (NETP) report in both… -
Energy in the West Nordics and the Arctic (EVA)
This project explores the energy systems and their development towards 2035 in the West Nordic areas and the Arctic. The objective of the project was to contribute to a knowledge base that can be shared and used in developing sustainable competitive energy systems that fulfill the goals and obligations for 2035 on climate, emissions and renewable shares. “Energy systems” in this case covers the potential for different renewable energy resources, infrastructure, the demand for energy in different sectors, and relevant… -
Nordic Energy Equality Network (NEEN)
This project brings together people who are interested in improving gender balance and promoting diversity in energy-related matters in the Nordic and Baltic societies. There is a general perception that the Nordic countries have a high level of equality and gender balance in the energy sector, as in many other sectors – but statistics and experiences tell a different story. The aim of NEEN is to highlight these issues and develop tools for improving gender balance and diversity in the… -
Baltic Energy Technology Scenarios 2018
Baltic Energy Technology Scenarios 2018 (BENTE) is a scenario-based energy system analysis that explores the changes in the Baltic countries’ energy systems. What are the drivers and their impacts in the following decades? What would be required for the Baltic countries to meet their climate and energy targets in 2030, and what development would lead the Baltics towards a 2°C pathway? The analysis is carried out by VTT Technical Research Centre of Finland and Ea Energy Analyses, in cooperation with… -
Nordic Energy Technology Perspectives 2016
Nordic Energy Technology Perspectives 2016 (NETP 2016) is a Nordic edition of the International Energy Agency’s (IEA) global Energy Technology Perspectives 2016. The report offers a detailed scenario-based analysis of how the Nordic countries can achieve a near carbon-neutral energy system. Get the report: Nordic Energy Technology Perspectives was launched on May 23rd, 2016. Download the report. Figures and data from the report can be downloaded below. Hard copies can be picked up from any of the partner institutions. Browse the slides (prezi):… -
Shift
Shift captures the momentum of economic, social and political trends and estimates how policy instruments can push development towards a sustainable transport and energy system in the Nordic region. -
Negative CO2
Negative CO2 is a research project looking at capturing CO2 from burning biomass by means of an innovative and potentially revolutionary technology called Chemical-Looping Combustion of biomass (Bio-CLC). -
Flex4RES
Flex4RES will demonstrate how the challenge of integrating high shares of variable renewable energy in the energy system can be handled efficiently through a stronger coupling of energy markets across the Nordic region, thereby facilitating a zero-carbon energy transition.
