1 Energy transition in Norway and at UiB Kristin Guldbrandsen Frøysa Energy director

2 Content Status for Norway Electrification of Norwegian transport sector Examples of (renewable) energy research at UiB F. G. Nielsen GFI PAGE 2

3 Energy flow in Norway, excl. Offshore O&G F. G. Nielsen GFI 3 Kilde: St. Melding 25 (2015 /2016) Kraft til Endring

4 Norway is an energy nation Petroleum Surplus of hydro power Very good wind resources onshore and offshore Bio energy Solar Large potential energy resources from the sea PAGE 4 Photo: Statkraft and Industrimuseet

5 Wind power a perfect fit to Norwegian consumption Source: Meld St Kraft til endring F. G. Nielsen GFI PAGE 5

6 Why does not Norway utilize offshore wind? Havvind SIDE 6

7 CO 2 emissions in Norway (2015) Source Mill. Tons (2015) Change since 1990 (%) Total Oil & gas Industry Road transportation Other Source: SSB F. G. Nielsen GFI PAGE 7

8 Ambitions wrt greenhouse gases Klimaforliket 2008 & 2012: By 2020 reduce the GHG emissions by 30% relative to 1990 level. In 2015: Target postponed to 2030 and ambitions increased to 40% reduction relative to 1990 level. Status? F. G. Nielsen GFI PAGE 8

9 HORDALAND COUNTY COUNCIL CO2-emmisions influenced by Hordaland County Council % 43 % 37 % Buss Snøgg- og lokalbåt Ferje Eiga verksemd 19 %

10 INSPIRED BY World first battery electric car ferry Ampere M/F, built in Hordaland 1040 kwh batteries Bus Voltage: 1000VDC

11 Hordaland county council are responible for 17 of 19 ferry connections in the county world s biggest low-emmision ferry tender All 17 ferry connection in new tenders in 2016 by county council Minimum 55 % CO2-cut and minimum 25 % energy cut to compete on contract. Additional 15 % for more CO2- cut and 15 % more additonal energy cuts. 70 % price

12 3 battery-hybrids start to operate in 2018 First new electric ferry start to operate on Halhjem- Austevoll (130 cars) Second starts on same connection 1. 07,2018 (120 cars). 3rd starts also on Husavik Sandvikvåg (38 cars). 10 minutes charging time

13 Norway taking leader role in clean shipping More than 50 electric ferries will be in service on the fjords around Norway by the end of 2020 First mass introduction of electric car ferries in world will be in Hordaland the next years The electric and electric-hybrid ferry technology is fully transferable to other ship segments Each ferry would save about a million litres of diesel per year, helping to reduce energy costs by 60% or more

15 Energy in the Norwegian transportation segment All transport : appr. 51 TWh/y Passenger cars: appr. 23 TWh/y, Appr. 6 mill tons CO 2 /y Oil Transport work 20% Losses (heat) 80% El - energy Transport work 80% Passenger cars Losses (heat) 20% Primary Energy (TWh/y) Efficiency Useful energy (TWh/y) Oil El-energy F. G. Nielsen GFI 15

16 Electrical vehicles All new cars sold in 2025 and all buses in the cities to be zero emission vehicles in 2025 Most other vechicles to be zero emission in 2030 PHOTO: E24

17 Climate and energy transition The current UiB strategy «Ocean, Life, Society» ( ) identifies Climate and energy transition is one of three committed strategic areas. By creating clusters, forming centers, increasing interdisciplinary cooperation, and including external partners, UiB will try to mark itself as one of Europe s strongest university in climate and energy transition. Dr. Kristin Guldbrandsen Frøysa, the newly appointed energy director, will be responsible for organizing and leading cooperation on research, education and innovation across the field and the faculties both locally, nationally and internationally.

18 Offshore wind - challenges CHALLENGE: Taller turbines - Larger wind farms - Deeper waters Further from shore - Reduce costs. NEEDS: Site selection Production and cost estimates Maximize production cross-disciplinary approach Mesoscale Park scale Rotor scale Blade scale km Days -Hours 10-1 km 20 min - 20 sec m 10 2 sec 5 -.5m sec Havvind SIDE 18

24 Department of Chemistry Background: Long-term research in petroleum generation processes Main question: Biomass in the geological system is converted to petroleum hydrocarbons in chemical processes based on temperature - Can we convert biomass into "oil" using high temperatures over short time? Research activities on biomass ongoing at KI since 1998 (petroleum generation since 1983) 24 uib.no

25 DEPARTMENT OF CHEMISTRY Additional information and thanks Bergen Energy Lab, Presentations from lunch seminars and half day seminars are available This presentation is partly based on presentations by professor Finn Gunnar Nielsen, Geophysical institute, UiB and Sølve Dag Sondbø, Hordaland County Council All projects presented here have been presented at Bergen Energy Lab (also the presentation from the county council). 25
