Abstract

Energy is undergoing a fundamental transition to carbon neutrality driven by disruptive technologies. In 2024, two-thirds of all energy investments globally will go into clean energy, notably renewables, electric vehicles (batteries), and grid related technologies. China has a leading role in many of these technologies. Solar and wind alone may constitute more than seventy percent of world electricity by the middle of this century. Electricity will play a central role in the transition ahead, also bridging energy and digital technologies. Scaling up is critical for the energy transition, but increasing scale will also bring along many challenges such as sufficiency of resources, increasing variability, security, resilience, etc. which will require new technological solutions. Market breakthroughs in energy are often linked to scalability, granularity, economics, and sustainability, whereas progress in science generate beyond the state-of-the-art innovations such as new batteries, hydrogen, next solar, AI-based systems, solar fuels, etc. often related to the digital & material realm. Clean electrons and molecules, carbon management, circularity, and efficient resource use will constitute the resource base of a low-carbon future, which coupled to innovative technologies integrate these into an efficient, resilient, and clean energy system.
