It has been a joy and privilege to moderate and present alongside Anne Houtman, lecturer at Sciences Po and formerly Principal Advisor in the Directorate General for Energy at the European Commission and Head of the Representation in France of the European Commission, Ivana Čekovič Eškenazi, Research Associate at the University of Belgrade – Innovation Centre of the Faculty of Mechanical Engineering, and Dr. Leonie Reins, Assistant Professor at the Tilburg Institute for Law, Technology and Society (“TILT”) at Tilburg University in the Netherlands.
The aim of our May 05 International Association for Energy Economics (IAEE) webinar was to examine the EU's decarbonization narrative through the prism of energy system integration and sector coupling. After defining these interrelated energy policy concepts, the webinar provided a clear outline of the different types of renewable gases and hydrogen and their production technologies. It subsequently focused on the regulatory instruments which will kick-start the envisioned liquid and well-functioning internal market in hydrogen, following the logic and principles established by the existing natural gas regulation. The webinar finally touched upon the issue of the internalization of Europe's energy security considerations in an electrons-clean molecules system and its implications for the governance of Europe's external energy relations.
