Long Term Energy Market
Demand for Energy 1.6 pa

• Growing need for Energy and Electricity
• global markets with global players
• continuing reliance on fossil fuels, especially
  likes of China and India

Environmental Implications

• Environment
• Short term Kyoto 2008-12, proving hard to meet?
• Longer term 60 reductions by 2050?
• How to engage of Emerging Market Economies?
• Impact of Emissions Trading?
• EC Large Combustion Plant Directive?

Messages from Conference

• Power generation industry continues to be rapidly
  changing with ever more pressing requirements for
  competitiveness and environmental sustainability
• no one single winning technology portfolio
  approach necessary
• clean use of fossil fuels will be an critical
  transitional issue to get to a sustainable energy
  future
• support for a Carbon Management Strategy for
  Fossil Fuels
• Re-emphasised the importance of the Gas Turbines
  as a key prime mover in 21st Century
• fuel flexibility natural gas through to syn gas
  of all types
• wide application power generation, industrial,
  oil/gas, chemical
• IGCC and link to CO2 capture/storage and hydrogen
  production

key messages

A WAY FORWARD
14
Way Forward

• Continuing need to maintain interactions
• across sector from researchers to industry and
  governments
• throughout the expanded EU and wider in Europe
• international aspects will be increasingly
  important
• Importance of EU/EC Networks
• CAME-GT, POWERCLEAN, CO2NET, CE-IGT
• bring together key strategic messages of each in
  a unified way
• FP7 and beyond requirement for critical mass
  actions in Europe

a way forward needs to be established
