IEA Experts Group "R&D Priority Setting and Evaluation" (EGRD) - Working period 2017 - 2019
The IEA Experts Group (EGRD) was established by the Committee on Energy Research and Technology (CERT). It examines analytical approaches to energy technologies, policies, and research and development and evaluates the benefits of RTI policies. Its results and recommendations feed into IEA analysis, and enable a broad perspective of energy technology issues.
Visualisation of IEA TCPs 2020
International activities for the energy supply of the future are taking place within the framework of IEA's technology cooperation. Visualisations based on a graph database show the extensive activities of the individual technology cooperation programmes (TCPs). The collaborations of countries on individual topics were made clearly visible, too.
Energy Optimization and Recovery Technology Collaboration Programme (EOR TCP)
Optimizing energy production and storing energy are of paramount importance for energy supply security and the energy transition. The EOR TCP covers the optimization and use of underground reservoirs for the next generation energy systems.
IEA AMF Task 65: Powertrain options for non-road mobile machinery (NRMM)
Hydrogen drives are considered to be particularly important for energy-intensive applications in non-road mobile machinery (NRMM) applications. This will allow gaining a climate-effective contribution for decarbonisation of large construction and agricultural machinery. Based on the automotive sector H2 regulatory framework, the task is to develop the basis for the conformity requirements for hydrogen-powered mobile machinery and to identify approval strategies for highly mobile H2 refuelling suitable for construction sites.
IEA AMF Task 63: Sustainable Aviation Fuels (SAF) (Working period 2021 - 2023)
Sustainable aviation fuels can reduce aviation GHG emissions. However, this potential remains largely untapped as such fuels currently account for only 0.1% of total aviation fuel consumption. The aim of the task was to lay the foundation for joint R&D work and facilitate the introduction of sustainable aviation fuels by identifying stakeholders, assessing national situations and sharing information.
IEA - Advanced Motor Fuels Technology Collaboration Programme (AMF-TCP)
The AMF Technology Collaboration Programme’s (AMF-TCP) vision is that advanced motor fuels, applicable to all modes of transport, significantly contribute to a sustainable society around the globe. The mission of AMF is to advance the understanding and appreciation of the potential of advanced motor fuels toward transport sustainability. We provide sound scientific information and technology assessments facilitating informed and science-based decisions regarding advanced motor fuels on all levels of decision-making.
IEA AMF Task 66: Recent Progress in SAF Research (working period 2024 - 2026)
AMF Task 66 will build on the work and results of AMF Task 63 on Sustainable Aviation Fuels (SAF). The Task will conduct workshops to exchange information and results on current research on SAF production and its application, as well as on related policy measures. This will enable the Task countries to better understand the state of the art, identify further research needs and derive recommendations for governments seeking to expand SAF production or use.
IEA AMF Task EATS: Exhaust gas aftertreatment systems (working period 2024 - 2027)
Internal combustion engines with renewable fuels are indispensable for the decarbonization of the hard-to-electrify industrial and transport sectors. The AMF TCP EATS Task is investigating effective exhaust aftertreatment technologies to achieve air quality comparable to electrified applications. Emissions are being analysed, suitable measurement methods identified and guidelines for limiting emissions developed.
IEA EV Task 52: EVs and Circularity
Electric vehicles have specific challenges to reach circularity, which must be identified and solved adequately. Circularity issues are relevant in all phases of the life cycle – production, use and end of life – so circularity is strongly linked to Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) of electric vehicles. Austria leads this task and is responsible for the scientific assessment of circularity in LCA. Relevant case studies for the Austrian industry are analysed and the national R&D demand is identified.
IEA HEV Task 45: Electrified roads (E-roads)
Electric vehicles can be charged stationary as well as dynamically while driving on so-called "e-roads". From a systemic point of view, this technology can be an addition to stationary charging and is not competing. Internationally, the academic and political discussion in this field is progressing rapidly. Task 45 aims for a mutual knowledge exchange, a joint understanding of next steps and a contribution of the Austrian position into the international debate.
IEA HEV TCP Task 40: Critical Raw Materials for Electric Vehicles
The production of electric vehicles and batteries requires critical raw materials. In Task 40, demand and supply are compared, based on global scenarios of the development of electric vehicle fleets, battery technologies, primary and secondary raw material potentials and recycling technologies. Potential overall ecological and social impacts of raw material and battery production are assessed.
IEA Electric Vehicle Technology Collaboration Programme (EV-TCP)
The Technology Collaboration Programme on Electric Vehicles (EV TCP) vision is that the electric drivetrain will be used as the predominant transportation mode in a sustainable transport system that is preferably powered by renewable energy and does not produce harmful emissions.
IEA HEV Task 41: Electric Freight Vehicles (Working period 2021 - 2022)
So far, the transformation of freight transport remains one of the biggest challenges on the path to zero emission. The Task's main objectives are to monitor progress and review relevant aspects for a successful introduction of electric freight vehicles (EFV) into the market. Austrian pilot projects on EFV are used to exchange barriers and solution approaches in an international context, especially with regard to substitution potential, costs and energy consumption. Together with incentive systems for the market launch of EFV, this will be discussed with logistics companies, the ministry (BMK) and research institutions.
IEA HEV Task 46: LCA of Electric Trucks, Buses, Two-Wheelers and other Vehicles (Working period 2022 - 2025)
The objective of this R&D service is the participation in Task 46 of the IEA Hybrid and Electric Vehicle (HEV) TCP with the work on the internationally agreed topics and the managing of the task as Operating Agent. Beside the Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) studies of typical examples also methods for the assessment of climate neutrality and circularity are developed. This is done in dedicated expert workshops.
IEA HEV TCP Task 49: Electric Vehicle-Fire Safety
As the number of electric vehicles increases, so does the need for safety. The project is creating an overview of fire safety standards for electric vehicles and networking relevant stakeholders. Challenges are discussed and experiences exchanged in national and international expert workshops. The focus is on promoting the safety of electric vehicles and increasing their acceptance.
