Power-to-X: Applications and Cost Development
Global power generation is increasingly based on renewable energy, with rising shares of electricity from PV and wind power plants included in the generation mix. However, CO2 emissions from the heating and cooling sector, from passenger and freight transport, and from industrial appliances, remain high. In these sectors, emissions reductions have been relatively limited.
The concept of sector coupling, refers to using electricity to provide heating/cooling, mobility and energy for certain industrial applications, and is seen as a promising solution that could provide appropriate forms of energy and industrial feedstocks with lower emissions for these sectors.
This course focuses on:
- Sector coupling
- Direct electrification in the heating and cooling sector
- Direct electrification in the transport sector
- Indirect use of electricity
- Regulatory framework
Receive a reminder one week before the registration deadline.
After completing this course, you should be able to:
- explain the purpose of the concept of sector coupling as well as the opportunities and challenges associated with it; and
- compare the available technologies for sector coupling in the heating and cooling sector and in the transport sector, and be aware of generally expected future developments regarding technological options and costs.
