Political view: SET-Plan (2007) European Strategic Plan for Energy Technology
Development of energy technologies plays a crucial role for climate protection and the security of the global and European energy supply
Goals of the EU until 2020 (20/20/20)
20% higher energy efficiency, 20% less GHG emission,,
20% renewable energy
Actions in the field of energy efficiency, codes and standards, funding mechanisms, and the charging of carbon emissions necessary
Significant research effort is necessary for the development of a new generation of CO2 emission free energy technologies, like
Offshore-Wind,
Solar
2nd generation Biomass
Goal of the EU until 2050: 80% less CO2 emissions than in 1990

Short-term CO2-Reduction: Solar Reforming
20
Steam and CO2-Reforming of Natural Gas
Steam reforming: H2O + CH4 3 H2 + 1 CO
CO2 Reforming: CO2 + CH4 2 H2 + 2 CO
Reforming of mixtures of CO2/H2O is possible and common
Use of CO2 for methanol production:
e.g. 2H2 + CO CH3COH (Methanol)
Both technologies can be driven by solar energy as shown in the projects: CAESAR, ASTERIX, SOLASYS, SOLREF…

Conclusion and Outlook
CO2 lean/free hydrogen is crucial for the energy economy no matter how the development will be
To achieve the energy/emission goals for 2020 promising renewable technologies like solar thermal must be implemented now, at the right places
Things to be done:
Secure and enhance the know-how by strong co-operations of industry and R&D
Close technological gaps
Transfer of the technology to industry
Provide technology for growing markets in solar regions
