*课程简介

 

在全球着力应对气候变化的大背景下,寻找低碳替代能源,逐步实现由以化石能源为主向以可再生能源为主的能源转型升级迫在眉睫。本课程旨在介绍能源与交通行业重点关注的未来燃料,如氢气、氨气、生物燃料等,理解未来绿色燃料的生产及利用情况,评估碳中和燃料生产对当地资源和社会的影响。通过以联合国可持续发展目标(UN Sustainable Development Goals)为导向,理解绿色燃料与清洁可负担能源(SDG 7)的关系,并与其它相关可持续发展目标进行关联。本课程能让员工掌握替代燃料制备工艺及应用方面的知识,理解绿色燃料制备所面临的挑战,加深清洁可再生燃料对碳中和目标贡献的认识。

 

* Description

As nations bind together to tackle global climate change, one of the urgent needs is the energy sector’s transition from being fossil-fuel reliant to embracing sustainable carbon-free solutions. This course aims to introduce a redefined perspective of fuel utilization for the power and transportation sectors, placing emphasis on alternative fuels derived from renewable resources that are essential contributors to the goals of carbon neutrality. Some of the low or zero-carbon fuels such as hydrogen, ammonia, biofuels and emerging low carbon fuels adaptable to current or new energy systems will be explored in the context of production, utilization, economics and sustainability. The impacts of future fuels on the environment, resource availability and social well-being need to be holistically considered and supported by diverse solutions, in alignment with the Sustainable Development Goals of Affordable and Clean Energy (SDG 7) and other related SDGs as put forth by the United Nations. From this course, the students will grasp the broad concept of alternative fuel production, application and challenges faced in moving towards a net zero-carbon society.
