    Project Details

    Description

    If Nordic energy and transport systems are to meet the 2050 energy and climate policy goals,a major transition is necessary. Fulfilling these goals may require fundamental social changes, perhaps reminiscent of an industrial revolution. Therefore industry and policymakers need insights and analyses that will help guide decision-making, avoid detrimental consequences and develop viable system transition strategies. This project explore how three renewable energy technology platforms: 1) electricity systems, 2) liquid and gaseous biofuels, and 3) hydrogen systems, may give rise to new value chains, creating entrepreneurial opportunities.
