WG convener CEN II
Abu Dhabi8 November 2016
Natural gas in Europe
• Natural Gas– Remains a clean source of energy
– Receives political support from EU
– Use in 2015 was ~25% less than in 2004- 2010
– Use in power applications under threat
– 50% of power is generated using fossil fuels
Natural gas in Europe

Decreasing productivity
in the Netherlands
• Reserves andproductivity are decreasing

EU - LNG imports
Source: ECN5
LNG and storage:
increasing flexibility
• Increase accessibilityof regional hubs
• Ensure access tostorage locations

• Smart Energy System– Interconnecting the power and gas system
• Renewable Gas– Fermentation, power-to-gas and thermal
gasification
• Small Scale LNG– LNG as a fuel
• The North Sea – Gas meets Wind
European Research Institute for
Gas and Energy Innovation
• Promoting joint innovation and research work
• Supporting the EU’s strategic research agenda
• Disseminating the results
• Transferring technology
• Communicating existing know-how
• Promoting cooperation
Advanced Fuels
CO2 reuse an EC priority
• An Integrated Roadmap theme- JRC93056 / 2014 (December 2014)– «Enabling carbon capture, CO2 utilisation and storage technologies...»
• An Energy Union research priority – COM(2015)80 (25.2.2015):– «A forward-looking approach to CCS and CCU for the power and industrial sectors will be critical to
reaching the 2050 climate objectives in a cost-effective way»
• Final Report, KETs: Time to Act, High Level Expert Group on Key Enabling Technologies (June 2015)– « IPCEI – PHOENIX – Transforming CO2 into Value for a rejuvenated European Economy »
• A SET-plan Action priority – C(2015)6317 (15.9.2015):– «Step up R&I activities on the application of CCS and commercial viability of CCU»
• Closing the loop - An EU action plan for the Circular Economy- COM(2015) 614 (2.12.2015)– « The reuse of gaseous effluents, in particular CO2, is another example of innovative process....»
