As greenhouse gas emissions continue to grow and as extreme weather events become more frequent and harmful, the current efforts to move beyond fossil fuels appear inadequate. A move away from oil and gas will reconfigure the world just as dramatically. Even when the world achieves net-zero emissions, it will hardly mean the end of fossil fuels.
Australia, Chile, Japan, and Saudi Arabia have emerged as early adopters in trading
low-carbon hydrogen and ammonia across borders and thus may be able to set
infrastructure standards and certification norms for those new fuel sources.
A clean energy world has hammered home the importance of the supply chain for
minerals such as cobalt, copper, lithium, nickel, and rare earths, which are critical to
various clean energy technologies, including wind turbines and electric vehicles.
In the estimation of the International Energy Agency, a world on track for net-zero emissions in 2050 will by 2040 need six times as much of the critical minerals as it does today. I am very pleased to carry out the global energy technology policy convergence manpower training program with the support of the government.
Hanyang University’s Department of Global Climate Environmental Studies and the Institute for Energy & the Environment of Hanyang University(HY-IEE) have just been selected as the host university for the Global Energy Technology Policy Professional Program in August 2022.
We welcome applicants from government and public sector policy makers to officials working in energy-related ministries and agencies. We provide broadly based energy technology and energy policy education with focus on renewable & hydrogen energy and critical minerals technology policy.
