The atmospheric concentration of carbon dioxide has now surpassed 420 parts per million, underscoring an alarming milestone in the human-induced warming of our planet. Last year, Earth’s average temperature was 1.48 degrees Celsius hotter than the pre-industrial average. To effectively address the climate crisis and avert catastrophic consequences, merely reducing greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions is not enough. The imperative extends beyond achieving net-zero emissions by mid-century; we must strive for a transition to net-negative emissions. This needs the integration of carbon dioxide removal (CDR) technologies as a fundamental aspect of our climate mitigation efforts.To address this issue, widespread implementation of CDR technologies is required. Among the foremost CDR methodologies is Bioenergy with Carbon Capture and Storage (BECCS). This technique involves capturing carbon dioxide during the conversion of biomass into heat, electricity, or fuels, subsequently sequestering it in geological formations. Notably, BECCS stands out as the only CDR approach that also provides renewable energy.The World Bioenergy Association, in partnership with Bioenergy International, is pleased to invite you to the webinar "Role of Bioenergy in Atmospheric CO2 Removal". The session will provide valuable insights into BECCS-related projects from around the world. It will also cover the latest changes in policies, regulations, finance, and technology within the industry. The goal is to enhance our understanding of this topic through the contributions of leading industry representatives and experts. The urgency and importance of developing and deploying such technologies are increasing, making this webinar an excellent opportunity to stay up-to-date on the latest developments.

In its Net Zero Emissions scenario, the International Energy Agency sees global hydrogen demand increasing six-fold by 2050. Since it’s only by-product when used to produce energy is water, hydrogen is considered an important tool to help decarbonize ‘hard-to-abate’ sectors. Countries across the world are deploying national hydrogen strategies and policies to support growth in hydrogen production and usage. As this energy transition gains momentum worldwide, the demand for green and blue hydrogen continues to increase at a rapid pace.  In this webinar, we will discuss the importance of filtration and separation solutions in optimizing green and blue hydrogen production. Our focus will be on how key players in the industry, such as EPC Contractors, OEMs, and end-users, can optimize hydrogen processing and amine-based carbon capture processes. By selecting the right filtration and separation technologies, project developers can reduce costs, protect critical equipment, and improve overall efficiency and reliability.  We will explore real-world case studies and share insights on incorporating absolute-rated particulate filters and high-efficiency liquid/gas coalescers in hydrogen projects. Additionally, we will discuss contamination monitoring techniques to assess filtration effectiveness.  Join us to gain valuable knowledge and insights on achieving optimal process efficiency and economic viability in green and blue hydrogen production.  Speakers:Maria Anez-Lingerfelt, Ph.D., Global Technical Lead – Hydrogen Technology Development, Pall CorporationFernando Garralon, Global Strategic Sales – Hydrogen, Pall Corporation

Densification of biomass fuels to produce secondary products such as briquettes and pellets can significantly improve the logistics of biomass fuels by improving energy density and reducing costs. However, the diverse nature of feedstock available in India poses challenges while the demand for densified biomass fuel is increasing in all end-use sectors including industries, power production, biofuels etc. In the second webinar of the Bioenergy India series, leading technology developers in pellets and briquettes will share their experience in developing projects in India.

Launched more than a decade ago, the Maryland EmPOWER Act is one of the country's leading energy efficiency programs, requiring utilities to meet a 2% annual savings target. Baltimore Gas and Electric (BGE), Pepco, and Southern Maryland Electric Cooperative (SMECO) have successfully reached these targets for numerous years—a remarkable accomplishment that demands significant effort. Join us for a webinar to discover the secrets behind their sustained success. We’ll delve into their culture of relentless innovation and the groundbreaking strategies that continue to drive transformative results. Key takeaways include: Insights from SMECO’s approach to evolving demand response: traditional switches and thermostats, bring-your-own-devices and optimization, and smart home technologies. Overview of how Pepco’s award-winning Residential New Construction New Homes program consistently exceeds targets despite evolving market conditions. Learnings from BGE’s innovative marketing campaigns, designed to actively engage customers and boost participation.

2024 Economic Outlook and Policy Webinar Series: Do Renewable Energy Needs Ask too Much of Rural Americans? A view from Ohio? - Dr. Mark Partridge

Discover how the Spring Budget will affect your business in our next webinar. With the Energy Bills Discount Scheme (EBDS) finishing shortly, will more financial support be offered to UK businesses? And, will there be any more tax incentives to help businesses invest to reduce their energy and lower emissions? We'll also be covering key emerging trends in the energy market and what these mean for UK businesses as we navigate the coming seasons, the network, system and policy charges on your energy invoice set to fall, and the costs rising rapidly. The UK needs to dramatically expand its renewable energy capacity to hit net zero. We share how businesses can support this and reap the benefits.

We are delighted to announce the launch of our new webinar series on Methane emissions. Register hereFirst webinar on 12 March, 14:30 – 16:30 Brussels time Leak Detection and Repair (LDAR). The EU Methane Regulation for the energy sector was proposed in December 2021 as part of the proposals to deliver the European Green Deal. This is the EU's first-ever legislation to curb methane emissions in the energy sector. The legislative proposal followed the EU Methane Strategy adopted in 2020 and is now in the process of being implemented at EU Member States level. Together with international experts from the European Commission, regulators, the industry and service providers, the webinar series will dive into the details of solutions to ensure an efficient implementation of the EU Methane Regulation by the operators and stakeholders along the value chain.
