The presentation "Energy turnaround in transport - contribution "greenhouse gas-reduced fuels" by Dr. Thomas Kuchling from the Institute for Energy Process Engineering and Chemical Engineering at the Technical University of Freiberg, at an event organised by the DGMK Hamburg-Bremen regional group, on November 7 at Wintershall Dea in Hamburg, provided for a lively discussion.
Among other things, the presentation contained first interim results of a study, which was comissioned by the DGMK Research Committee Greenhouse Gas Reduction. The figures clearly show that greenhouse gas reduced or neutral fuels in the transport sector will be indispensable if the targeted greenhouse gas reduction of 40 % in transport is to be achieved by 2030. This includes bio-to-liquid fuels as well as e-fuels, which can be produced in the long term from renewable hydrogen and CO₂
