Wat Europa zoal nodig heeft om welvarend te blijven haarfijn uitgelegd door iemand die er écht iets van kent: en gesloten grenzen zijn daar niet bij. Koenraad Debackere bezweert België en Europa: “Alsjeblief, zorg voor minder regelgeving” standaard.be/cnt/dmf2024071…

Lab #Hydrogen @ENGIEInnov just setup a full PEC system for #syngas production on the roof of CNR ITAE Bologna in the scope of the European-funded 🇪🇺​ project CONDOR 1st results show gas evolution. This system will be soon connected to a DME synthesis system built by HyGear

Should we show more affection to CO2? Access to cheap biogenic/atmospheric CO2 will be worth fighting over! Great post by IRENA & very much in-line with our work published last year: lnkd.in/eHRVqiKQ @ENGIEInnov CO₂ Value Europe SUNERGY energypost.eu/renewable-carb…

Interesting New Chart of the Week from IMF. We must ensure that in future, AI is overall beneficial to help fight climate change (e.g. smarter energy production, storage and use) and that it does not just add more emissions to take care off... content.govdelivery.com/accounts/USIMF…

During our visit to Laborelec with the UGent students following the 'Sustainable Energy' course, we learned about the queste for affordable, & sustainable technologies! Not all that is being tested will lead to massive adoption but piloting is the only way to find it out!!!
