SUMMARY:Is China taking control of African minerals? Geopolitics and raw materials
DESCRIPTION:Chinese companies are far from taking control over African or global mining. In 2018\, they control less than 7 % of total African mine production. Chinese investments in African mining of non-fuel minerals between 1995 and 2018 have contributed to production growth but it has also increased Chinese control over African mineral and metal production. There is evidence pointing to a continued Chinese expansion in African minerals and metals but at a slower pace than in the past decade. Through a detailed analysis of every mine\, fully or partially controlled by Chinese interest in Africa and all other parts of the world the paper also measures total Chinese control over global mine production to be around 3 % of the total value. \nMagnus Ericsson\, is a veteran observer and analyst of global mining his interests going back to the early 1970s. He is a consulting professor of mineral economics at Luleå University of Technology\, Sweden since 2009. Magnus’ key qualifications lie within the areas where mineral economics; mineral policy/strategy; mineral legislation and taxation cross. He has extensive experiences in investment promotion\, mineral policy formulation including taxation and legislative issues and their implementation\, institutional organization\, stock exchange regulations for mining companies and he regularly performs analyses of mineral industries and their competitiveness. Magnus has a wide network in China having visited the country regularly since early 2000s. \nThe participation is free\, but registration is required\, through the following registration form until 31 May 2021: \nhttps://forms.gle/7UFLixBt9Q8Gvpgc7

SUMMARY:All things energy forum
DESCRIPTION:The world is facing an unprecedented situation\, unlike anything after WWII. The key characteristics are Uncertainty and the convergence of six mega phenomena: \n\nA Sustained Pandemic: Covid does not seem to abate\, 3rd wave\, British variant\, problematic availability of vaccines\nEconomics: Huge stimulus sums are being spent but still a bleak forecast for a recovery\, outside China\nEnergy trade: an oil price plunge\, to even negative territories\, is now followed by uncertainty in demand and volatility in oil/gas prices\nInternational politics: US/China trade war\, Russian political frictions with EU\, seeking a balance between energy security\, economic and environmental goals in times of energy transition\nEnergy/Environment policies: EU–Green Deal proceeding at full speed\, but at the same time China/Asia are ordering new coal plants\nDisruptive technologies and emerging challenges: cybersecurity issues arise from increasing digitalization (hacking\, terrorism & insurance coverage)\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAs a result\,  some energy subsectors are favored by low-emissions policies: Renewable Energy Sources\, Hydrogen of the ‘green’ variety. Nuclear should be favored\, due to no carbon emissions\, but safety and cost problems exist. Other energy subsectors are challenged: coal\, tar sands\, oil especially upstream\, shale oil. Natural gas is a borderline energy subsector — a transition fuel. \nWhen the Covid-19 factor is superposed\, even the subsectors that are  theoretically favored are faced with problems of low demand and supply chain\, as well as administrative delays and obstacles to Foreign Direct Investments from specific countries. \nIndirectly but increasingly strongly\, the energy sector is also affected by the changing attitudes of banks and other financial institutions\, insurance companies\, hedge funds\, NGOs etc that are becoming more active in the direction of decarbonization. \nIn this framework\, the decisions of energy producing or consuming companies\, are hugely affected. Such decisions Include health and safety\, sales\, operations\, finance/cashflow\, risk management/communications\, CSR\, planning/strategy/energy transition.

SUMMARY:EU Green Week 2021
DESCRIPTION:Pollution affects everybody – through the air we breathe\, the water we drink or the land we grow our food on. It is the largest environmental cause of multiple mental and physical diseases\, and of premature deaths\, especially among children\, people with certain medical conditions and the elderly. But pollution does not affect everybody equally. People who live in more deprived areas very often live close to contaminated sites or in areas where there is a very high flow of traffic. Pollution is also one of the main reasons for the loss of biodiversity. It reduces the ability of ecosystems to provide services such as carbon sequestration and decontamination. \nBut it can be prevented. The EU Action Plan toward a Zero Pollution Ambition is a key action of the European Green Deal scheduled for spring 2021. It will help to create a toxic-free environment across the EU by better monitoring and\, reporting\, and by preventing and remedying pollution from air\, water\, soil\, and consumer products.\nIt will also support the post-COVID 19 recovery by helping to rebuild a more sustainable EU economy\, creating job opportunities and reducing social inequalities. The European Green Week 2021 will be dedicated to the ‘zero pollution ambition’. It will also look at other relevant European Green Deal initiatives\, such the climate initiatives\, the upcoming Chemicals Strategy\, as well as initiatives in the field of energy\, industry\, mobility\, agriculture\, fisheries\, health and biodiversity. \nEU Green Week 2021 will be an opportunity to engage with all stakeholders and interested citizens on how we can work together to make the ambition for a zero pollution and toxic-free environment a reality.

SUMMARY:Global Roundtable on Extractive Industries: Transforming the Sector into an Engine for Sustainable Development
DESCRIPTION:Starting with the industrial revolution\, our global economic system has been underpinned by the extraction of natural resources – notably fossil fuels – which accelerated the development trajectories of many advanced economies. Extractive industries can generate significant revenue for producing countries\, creating major opportunities for growth for resource-rich countries. Yet extractive industries have also been mired by economic\, social and environmental problems. These challenges have been further compounded by COVID-19\, which led to rising debt burdens\, constrained fiscal environments\, and plummeting commodity prices\, which particularly affected both mining\, oil and gas in early 2020. \nOver the past five months\, a series of regional roundtables have taken place in collaboration with Regional Economic Commissions\, with support from UN entities working on extractives including the Climate Action Team\, UNDP\, DESA\, UNCTAD\, and UNEP. The substantive outcomes from these roundtables informed the first-ever policy brief by the UN Secretary-General on extractive industries. \nThe Global Roundtable on 25 Mary will assess the key recommendations outlined in this brief and identify concrete actions and recommendations that can be implemented at the global\, regional\, and national levels. The event will call for concrete solutions on six pressing issues : \n\nIntegrate a circular economy throughout the extractives sector\nSecure a just transition from fossil fuels to renewable energy\, including for coal-dependent economies\, and local communities affected by this change\, including women\, youth\, and indigenous groups\nAlign all forms of public and private finance in the extractives sector with the SDGs and Paris Agreement\, and build on pre-existing efforts to create a sustainable finance taxonomy for extractives\nEnd the local and global environmental damage caused by extractive industries\, including by bolstering transparency and traceability and cleaning global value chains\nEnsure that green technology and widely available data to monitor carbon emissions and air pollution are a global public good\nEnsure that extractive industries provide adequate levels of revenue that allow all countries to invest in their populations and in long-term sustainable development\n\nThe outcomes will also be carried over into future engagements\, including through a new Group of Friends on Extractive Industries\, and translated into action on the ground in a set of pilot countries to be identified which will be supported by the UN Regional Economic Commissions (RECs). \nParticipants \nLed by the United Nations Secretary-General\, the following stakeholders have been invited to participate in the roundtable: \n\nHeads of State and Government\, High-Level Representatives at Ministerial Level\nPartners from the private sector\, civil society and indigenous peoples\, academia\, and think tanks\nThe Executive Secretaries of all five UN Regional Economic Commissions and the Special Envoy of the UN Secretary-General on Financing the 2030 Agenda.\n\nThe event will be broadcast on UN WEB TV in English only at: http://webtv.un.org/ It can also be viewed via Facebook [@UNwebTV]; Twitter [@UNwebTV]; YouTube [@UNwebTV]

SUMMARY:World Geothermal Congress 2020
DESCRIPTION:WGC is finally coming to Iceland\, a country that has shown so clearly to the world how renewable energy can power a modern economy in the 21st century. The Icelandic geothermal community has played a vital role in the technological development of geothermal power for the past decades\, not only in power generation but also in district heating and direct use. \n„WGC will bring together the entire global geothermal community in Reykjavik. Our community is diverse and inclusive with more than 3\,000 delegates attending from Africa\, Asia\, Europe and the Americas\, sharing their experience and vision for our industry and shaping the direction of geothermal for decades to come. The delegates will have a unique opportunity to see first-hand how Iceland became a global leader in geothermal utilization on short field trips in the evenings or longer excursions to the islands many geothermal areas. Hopefully they will go home to their respective countries ready to take the next step towards implementing sustainable energy solutions based on their geothermal resources.“

SUMMARY:The Carbon Capture and Storage 101 Webinars: CCS Infrastructure for a Net-Zero Future
DESCRIPTION:This is the second of a three-part series of webinars introducing Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) and will focus on the infrastructure needed to deploy more carbon capture projects around the world. \nCCS is making energy news headlines almost daily\, and for good reason.  As one of the most effective technologies to tackle climate change\, CCS is gaining ground across the US and around the world. Curious about the economic or climate aspects of CCS? Interested in hearing what’s happening in the CCS world? If so\, the Carbon Capture 101 Webinars series is for you. Hosted by The Global CCS Institute\, the Carbon Capture and Storage 101 Webinars will feature three\, one-hour webinars every other Friday at 10 am for the benefit of Capitol Hill staffers and other interested stakeholders. \nJoin us for our second webinar on May 7th\, CCS Infrastructure for a Net-Zero Future\, featuring four experts on CCS infrastructure projects in the U.S. and Europe. These projects transport and store captured CO2\, and the experts will discuss their experience planning\, developing and running them. A large infrastructure buildout across the globe is one of the key components that will be needed to achieve the CCS scale-up required to achieve net-zero emissions by 2050. \nhttps://www.globalccsinstitute.com/news-media/events/the-carbon-capture-and-storage-101-webinars-ccs-infrastructure-for-a-net-zero-future/

SUMMARY:Core Values: the Role of Core in 21st Century Reservoir Characterisation
DESCRIPTION:Core has traditionally played a key role in the characterisation of conventional and unconventional hydrocarbon reservoirs\, from exploration to mature production. It is the only means by which to observe and make measurements on actual reservoir rock. However\, the recent oil industry downturn has driven many to question the value of taking core\, due to the associated increased costs and potential risks to well operations. In tandem\, advances in other reservoir visualisation techniques\, such as seismic and borehole imaging\, have been used to give weight to the contention that coring is an increasingly redundant means of characterising reservoirs. \nThrough four main themes this 3-day conference will aim to redress the balance in this debate by exploring the role core can\, or should\, play in the 21st century exploration to production cycle: \n• Is core critical to sound commercial decision making? \n• What are the challenges and benefits of integrating core-derived understanding across the geological\, petrophysical and engineering spectrum? \n• Integration of traditional core characterisation methods with new core\, well and reservoir visualisation and mapping technologies – is the sum greater than its parts? \n• How can the extensive network of global legacy core collections best be utilised to maximise their business and research worth? \nDedicated sessions will allow delegates to view core that has been central to addressing many key reservoir issues\, under the direct guidance of those responsible for meeting such challenges. Speakers are thus invited to bring core to illustrate their presentation\, and indicate if this is of interest when submitting an abstract.

SUMMARY:The role of gas in Europe’s future energy mix and the transition to zero carbon of Europe’s power sector
DESCRIPTION:The lower carbon intensity of natural gas – which produces half the emissions of coal when burned in power plants – and the emergence of new technologies like hydrogen are setting gas apart from other fossil fuels in the clean energy transition.  \nCan gas\, whether renewable or abated through CCS\, be the optimal complementary energy technology to balance intermittent renewable electricity such as wind and solar in the coming decades? And how can we ensure enough funding for the different technologies for decarbonisation?   \nJoin this EURACTIV debate to discuss the role of gas and gas infrastructure in Europe’s future energy mix and the transition to zero carbon of Europe’s power sector. \nhttps://events.euractiv.com/event/info/the-role-of-gas-in-europes-future-energy-mix-and-the-transition-to-zero-carbon-of-europes-power-sector

SUMMARY:Certification of carbon removals: the first step towards an EU market mechanism for negative emissions
DESCRIPTION:The Commission scenarios show that the EU will have to rely on a substantial amount of carbon removals to reach climate neutrality by 2050 and achieve net-negative emissions thereafter. This is why the Commission is now designing an EU-wide carbon removal certification mechanism covering both nature-based and technological solutions. Removal of atmospheric or biogenic CO2 requires a GHG methodology and a regulatory framework that are formally separated from emissions reduction measures supporting capture\, use and storage of point source CO2. This is an important first step towards providing adequate mandates and incentives for much-needed market take-up of carbon removal solutions. \nJoin us to hear from DG Climate and the Austrian Environmental Agency about the plans and progress of an EU certification mechanism\, followed by views from developers of technological and hybrid carbon removal projects\, as well as policy practitioners developing a carbon removal obligation concept. \nhttps://www.negative-emissions.org/events
