1. PÄEV, 28. JUUNI 2021

Scientific Seminar on Energetics, TalTech (online seminar, will be broadcast at the Estonian Academy of Sciences Hall)
Everyone recognises that climate change is happening and there is a transition to renewable resources. Studies of experts demonstrate that much higher levels of renewable energy can be reliably achieved while significantly reducing carbon emissions. It is a global challenge to all nations, in particular for Germany reducing the consumption of coal and for Estonia reducing the use of oil shale for electrical energy generation. Challenges and possibilities related to reliable future power systems are discussed at the scientific seminar on energetics.
