CLAEN AND SUSTAINABLE ENERGY SYSTEMS

IMPACT ON KSA ECO SYSTEM

KSA is committed to maximizing value captured from the energy sector; the kingdom advocates' circular carbon economy' model to achieve sustainability goals. KSA plans to develop its own carbon trading mechanism as part of a move to develop a circular carbon economy (CCE). Saudi is looking to achieve standards set under the United Nations' Sustainable Development Goals and is looking to develop a system where carbon emissions are reduced, reused, recycled, and removed to be used in other economically-viable ventures to boost the economy.

IMPACT ON R&D TRENDS

Through innovation and collaboration, KSA is looking to achieve standards set under the United Nations' Sustainable Development Goals and is looking to develop a system where carbon emissions are reduced, reused, recycled and removed to be used in other economically-viable ventures to boost the economy.

 ACTIVITY 1: FIRMLY ESTABLISH LEADERSHIP IN ENERGY STORAGE SYSTEMS

DESCRIPTION: Energy storage is a crucial technology to enable the global transformation towards low-carbon, resilient power systems, and is a key to tackling the intermittency issues of renewable energy. Our research on energy storage will directly service the اتة, enhancing grid operations and safety.

 ACTIVITY 2: ADVANCE ENERGY EFFICIENCY TRENDS THROUGH DIGITIZATION.

DESCRIPTION: Global energy intensity has major implications for consumers, businesses, governments and the environment. Energy efficiency will boost economic growth and avoid greenhouse gas emissions, more research focus is needed on how digitalization is transforming energy efficiency and increasing its value.

 ACTIVITY 3: PROMOTE SUSTAINABILITY RESEARCH IN TURNING WASTE INTO ENERGY.

DESCRIPTION: As more governments and private operators recognize the need for alternative waste management, creative solutions are needed to become the norm around the world, combining the future of waste and the future of energy.

 ACTIVITY 4:  ADVANCING CREATIVE RESEARCH IN SOLAR ENERGY

DESCRIPTION: Solar power is in a constant state of innovation in 2019, with new advances in solar panel technology announced constantly. More future research is needed in solar efficiency, solar energy storage, wearable solar tech, and solar design tech.

 ACTIVITY 5: STIMULATE RESEARCH IN ADVANCING PEACEFUL NUCLEAR ENERGY

DESCRIPTION: Coal is responsible for 38% of the world’s power, such stagnation led environmental groups to conclude that we need more nuclear energy. The new, safer nuclear reactors might help stop climate change. From sodium-cooled fission to advanced fusion, research will revive trust in nuclear energy.

 ACTIVITY 6:  NANO STRUCTURES CATALYST

DESCRIPTION: In this proposed activity, a new supported catalysts for different chemical reactions will be investigated. For example, ethane dehydrogenation by carbon dioxide will be synthesized and investigated. Nano-structured monometallic and bimetallic oxides will be loaded on the prepared mesoporous Titania to achieve high dispersion and more stability of active species.
