Mineral Raw Materials, and Energy Transition (8:30 am – 18:00 pm, HS 435)
Leaders: David Misch, Frank Melcher
The workshop Mineral Resources and Energy Transition will address aspects of the sustainable use of geoenergy (e.g. geothermal energy production, natural hydrogen), energy storage (e.g. hydrogen, green methane, thermal energy), carbon capture and storage (CCS) and the production of mineral resources in connection with the technologies needed for the energy transition (photovoltaics, wind energy, battery systems). There will be a combination of keynote speeches (morning), a classical poster session (afternoon) and open discussions (morning/afternoon). The results of the workshop will be summarized by the co-chairs in a final presentation on the last day of the conference. A short summary of the workshop will be distributed among the workshop participants.
