This technical report describes the results of an intensive test campaign involving two different electric vehicles. The first was a battery electric vehicle (i.e. fully electric) and the second was a plug-in hybrid electric vehicle. Both were tested in the Vehicle Emissions Laboratory (VELA) 9...

The report presents the findings of a participatory technology foresight exercise that listed 46 emerging and disruptive technologies relevant for space, defence, and related civil industries, which are of strategic importance for the European Union (EU). Throughout the process, participants...

This publication is a Technical Report on the Global Flood Monitoring (GFM) product of the Copernicus Emergency Management Service, which is operated by an international consortium led by the Earth Observation Data Centre for Water Resources Monitoring GmbH (EODC), under a Framework Contract...

This document describes a simple methodology for estimating the global average greenhouse gas emissions intensity for hydrogen. The aim of this estimation is to provide scientific support to the implementation of the Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (CBAM).

The European Green Deal is a flagship initiative of the European Commission aimed at achieving a sustainable future through a clean energy transition. This report proposes a sustainability assessment framework (SAF) for evaluating energy technologies, inspired by the Safe and Sustainable by...

Today, lighting is responsible for 5% of worldwide CO2 emissions. Electricity demand for lighting attained 2900 TWh for a global light production of 215 Plmh. It is foreseen that in 2040 the needs for artificial lighting will increase by 25%. The challenge for the next decade will be to harness...

Methane is a potent greenhouse gas and as an air pollutant it contributes to tropospheric ozone formation, which is detrimental to health. About 60% of total global methane emissions stems from anthropogenic emissions, and about 40% from natural sources. In 2022, Europe contributed to 5.2% of...

Larger Austrian cities are confronted with the necessity to develop new districts and to revitalise existing neighbourhoods. This process includes the development of new energy supply systems. The conventional solutions usually are gas grids for decentralised use on the one hand and district...
