Group picture of IETS Task 21 at the IETS Conference 2023

At the IETS conference from May 9-11, 2023 in Gothenburg, the subtasks and activities of IETS Task 21 were presented, and two key note presentations and two elevator pitches on the task were given.

Gruppenfoto IETS Task 21 Consortium Meeting in Graz

On April 9, 2024, a full-day meeting of IETS Task 21 took place in Graz. The meeting provided a valuable platform for exchanging insights and planning further steps for the successful implementation of the tasks within Task 21.

Graphic illustration of different terms from Zeilerbauer et al. (2024)

Figure from Zeilerbauer et al. (2024) (https://doi.org/10.1080/17583004.2024.2408285), which uses a use case to discuss different terms from the area of ​​Circular Carbon.

Vision of the Energy/Carbon Future of Upper Austria 2040

The figure shows the visualized vision developed by the Energy Institute at the JKU in coordination with the stakeholders, which represents possible energy and resource exchanges in 2040 in annual quantities.

Contact angle measurement for membrane properties assessment

Membrane distillation (MD) laboratory plant at AEE INTEC in Gleisdorf

The MD laboratory system offers the option of connecting different module types and sizes, shown here with a connected test cell. The system can also be operated in different configurations, such as in direct contact mode or with vacuum.

Steam boiler and Heat Pump

The figure shows energy flows in a system consisting of a steam generator and a heat pump for process steam and hot water supply.

Composite Curves for an Example Case

The figure shows Composite Curves from Pinch Analysis for an Example Case that was evaluated within the project.

Austrian Activities Worldwide

Visualisation of Austrian cooperations in context of TCP tasks and annexes. Available in german language at https://nachhaltigwirtschaften.at/de/iea/visualisierungen/weltweite-kooperationen.php

Graph Datastructure

Graphbased datastructure of the open access IEA-TCP dataset.

Visualisation of TCPs

After selecting a topic (in this example "Electricity transmission and distribution" was selected), this graph shows all tasks (activities) focussing on the selected topic. The topics are structured according to the IEA energy RD&D budget/expenditure statistics. Additionally, you can see the related Technology Collaboration Programmes (TCPs). Activities which had been ongoing in Summer 2020 from all IEA-TCPs are covered in this analysis. You can re-arrange the different bubbles to better meet the needs of your analysis. If a TCP consists of more than one task (activity), it also contains one entry in the database labelled “ExCo-Activities”.

Methods

Set of methods to classify the type of activity of TCP Tasks and Annexes.

Illustration of the "Roadmap on Digitalization" that was developed in the Annex.

The roadmap shows the keywords with regard to future application areas of digital twins, which were identified during workshops in the Annex.

Contact angle measurement on membrane

A defined drop of a liquid is deposited on the membrane to be analyzed. The contact angle between the membrane and the liquid is then measured.

Membrane tests for the analysis of surface properties

By means of contact angle measurements, the membrane can be analyzed before and after its application and conclusions can be drawn about its functionality and usability.

Combination of Methods used by TCP-Activities

A set of methods was developed to categorize the kind of project work that is done in the activities. The figure shows which methods are applied how often in total (node size), and which methods were frequently applied together (edge width) by activities. The color corresponds to the different method cate-gories described in chapter.

IEA-Topics, Related Activities and Working Parties

IEA-topics on level 1 (orange, node size corresponds to the official RD&D budget 2015) and TCP-activities (non-orange nodes) and related TCP-working parties (see color code in legend).
