Description
Summary:Enforced extension of renewable power will be required to achieve the targeted CO2 reduction. Hereby, it will be essential to shift renewable electricity to the mobility and industry sector. The transportation sector exhibits the highest need for action. Here the concept of the future will be electric. The main challenge will be the poor energy density of batteries compared to oil-based fuels. Trends and solutions for transportation via road, rail, sea and air are discussed in the paper.
