In this brochure, WISIONS focuses on the interdependent connection between water and energy. WISIONS presents good practice projects dealing with water and energy in Guatemala, Peru, Tunisia, the Philippines and Tanzania that have been successfully implemented, with the intention of further promoting the particular approaches used by these projects. Using a key number of internationally accepted criteria, the main consideration for the selection of the projects was energy and resource efficiency. The assessment of the projects also included the consideration of regional factors acknowledging different needs and potentials.
Wichtiger Eckpunkt des EU-Pakets vom 23.1.2008 zur Realisierung der 20-20-20-Ziele ist die Erhöhung des Anteils erneuerbarer Energien (REN) mittels einer Richtlinie, die national umzusetzen ist. Hierzu liegt ein Entwurf vor. Auch wenn es noch Auseinandersetzungen um die Alternative eines EU-weiten einheitlichen Systems auf Basis eines Quoten-/Zertifikatehandels versus nationaler Fördersysteme gibt, ist davon auszugehen, dass letztlich eine Koexistenz der EEG-artigen und der Quoten-Ansätze auf mitgliedstaatlicher Ebene möglich sein wird. Vor diesem Hintergrund wird im Folgenden nach innovativen Optionen gefragt, die die neue Rechtslage auf EU-Ebene für die mitgliedstaatliche Umsetzung bietet.
Because of a growing global energy demand and rising oil prices coal-abundant nations, such as China and the United States, are pursuing the application of technologies which could replace crude oil imports by converting coal to synthetic hydrocarbon fuels - so-called coal-to-liquids (CtL) technologies. The case of CtL is well suited to analyse techno-economic, resources-related, policy-driven and actor-related parameters, which are affecting the market prospects of a technology that eases energy security constraints but is hardly compatible with a progressive climate policy. This paper concentrates on Germany as an example - the European Union (EU)'s largest member state with considerable coal reserves. It shows that in Germany and the EU, CtL is facing rather unfavourable market conditions as high costs and ambitious climate targets offset its energy security advantage.
