POWERTRAINS FOR RENEWABLE FUELS -
ON THE PATH TO CO2-NEUTRAL MOBILITY
On November 22nd and 23rd, 2022, the 1st Conference Powertrains for Renewable Fuels under the scientific leadership of Prof. Dr.-Ing. Michael Bargende and Prof. Dr.-Ing. André Casal Kulzer, FKFS, took place at the Haus der Wirtschaft, Stuttgart. 100 participants from industry, science and politics followed the multi-layered conference program consisting of 22 presentations as well as 5 exciting keynotes by:
- Arne Philipp Siemens & Corentin Prié, AUDI AG: "Paris Climate Agreement: Signification for the Transformation Towards CO2-Neutral Mobility"
- Prof. Dr. Christian Küchen, en2x Wirtschaftsverband Fuels und Energie e. V.: "Necessary Framework Conditions for the Ramp-Up of Sustainable Fuels"
- Matthias Maedge, NGVA Europe: "The Gas Engine - Current Perspectives"
- Dr. Ulrich Kramer, Ford Werke GmbH: "Efficient Pathways to Defossilize European Mobility in 2050 - Cradle-to-Grave Analysis Based on the Results of the FVV Fuel Study IV b"
- Karl Dums, Dr. Ing. h.c. F. Porsche AG: "eFuels in Patagonia"
As different as the approaches and scenarios presented in the lectures were, it became clear that the use of synthetic fuels is by no means in competition with electromobility, and that eFuels can make a crucial contribution to achieving the CO2 targets if politics creates the appropriate framework conditions.
We would like to thank our plenary speakers and presenters for their high-quality contributions that turned the event into a successful 1st Conference on Powertrains for Renewable Fuels.
