DAY 4:
THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 26, 2020 (10:00 - 12:40 EET)
SOUTHEAST EUROPE’S ENERGY MIX IN 2030 AND BEYOND. WHAT IS THE ROLE OF GAS?
The pillars of today’s decarbonization vision for the gas industry are biogas and biomethane, power-to-X technologies relying on renewable power, and green hydrogen, produced with zero carbon emissions. The latter must also assume that carbon capture, storage and utilization (CCUS) capacities will adopt. The opening dialogue and the panel will tackle the most likely path of cost-efficient progress towards decarbonization, along with its policy, regulatory and technology prerequisites.
More urgent is the issue of tackling methane emissions across the gas industry’s entire value chain. The very credibility of the gas decarbonization strategy depends on it.
The panel brings together international experts to discuss the various approaches, challenges, dilemmas, successes and real prospects of decarbonizing the natural gas sector.
