    Coal-fired power generation and climate protection until 2030
    (2018) Gibis, Claudia; Hain, Benno; Klaus, Thomas; Knoche, Guido; Landgrebe, Jürgen; Leprich, Uwe; Lünenbürger, Benjamin; Matthey, Astrid; Pfeiffer, David; Purr, Katja; Unnerstall, Herwig; Weiß, Jan; Werlein, Max; Deutschland. Umweltbundesamt
    With this position paper, the ⁠UBA⁠ proposes strategic measures and targeted climate policy instruments for achieving a reduction in coal-fired power generation for the period up until 2030. To achieve a disproportionately high reduction in greenhouse gas emissions by the energy sector as a contribution to achieving the climate protection targets by 2020, the UBA recommends to limit coal-fired power generation to 4,000 full-load hours per year for hard coal and lignite power plants that are at least 20 years old and additional closure of at least 5 GW of the oldest lignite power plants. To ensure that the energy sector comfortably achieves its targeted reduction in greenhouse gas emissions by 2030, the UBA recommends in addition to limit coal-fired power generation the closure of the oldest lignite and hard coal power plants following the Nuclear Power Phase-Out in 2022 to a maximum remaining output of 19 GW.

    Integration of Power to Gas/ Power to Liquids into the ongoing transformation process
    (2016) Adlunger, Kirsten; Burger, Andreas; Hain, Benno; Klaus, Thomas; Lange, Martin; Lehmann, Harry; Mönch, Lars; Osiek, Dirk; Proske, Christopher; Purr, Katja; Schmied, Martin; Vollmer, Carla
    Power to gas (PtG) is a technology for producing hydrogen and methane using electricity, while power to liquids (PtL) is an electricity-based process for the generation of liquid fuels. Jointly with other so-called power-to-x technologies PtG and PtL make it possible to provide renewable energies for all applications. This position paper assesses the role and prospects of the power-to-gas/power-to-liquids (PtG/PtL) technology in a fully renewable energy system and identifies, in particular, the challenges for integration and further development of this technology in the ongoing transformation process, which should be addressed in the next few years.
