ERC Forum 2023: Renewable and Sustainable Energy Transition
hosted by the Energy Regulatory Commission (ERC). This event fosters knowledge exchange, experience sharing,and collaboration among domestic and international stakeholders. A catalyst for bolstering national energysecurity, it advocates for eco-friendly energy industries, driving economic growth, and a low-carbon society through the remarkable journey of "Energy Transition."
Build Energy Collaboration Networks for the Energy Transition
ERC Forum 2023 at the annual academic forum, under the theme 'ERC Forum 2023:
Renewable and Sustainable Energy Transition.' The event aims to drive greenhouse gas reduction
in the energy sector to achieve Carbon Neutrality and Net Zero Emissions goals.
The Advantages for Participants
Opportunities to Create Academic Collaboration Networks for the Energy Transition
Establish collaboration networks with energy-related organizations, both local and international, as well as researchers onenergy innovation development and applications to accelerate greenhouse gas reduction so as to achieve Carbon Neutrality and Net Zero Emissions goals.
Ways to Drive Greenhouse Gas Reduction in the Energy Sector
Obtain profound insights into renewable energy technology advancements from renowned energy experts from within the country and abroad. This aims to gear energy industry development to be sustainable and eco-friendly with a view to mobilizing a low-carbon economy and society
Comprehend Energy Policy and Regulation
Engage with energy-policy makers, energy industry regulators, experts and researchers, at regional and global levels, to exchange views on energy policy and regulation to be prepared for the Energy Transition.
Get Prepared for the Energy Transition
All sectors can take part in developing sustainable and eco-friendly energy industry and join hands in driving a low-carbon economy and society.
Renewable Energy is an inexhaustible energy source that can be replenished. It is derived from natural resources and its supply is unlimited. Examples include hydropower, wind, solar and geothermal energy. Renewable energy is also a crucial factor in generating sustainable energy, reducing environmental impact, alleviating air pollution and addressing climate change.
Thus, promoting the use of renewable energy is vital to driving the energy transition, minimizing fossil fuel dependence and embracing eco-friendly practices in the modern world.
Importance of Renewable Energy
Advancing Renewable Energy Technologies
Alternative energy technologies from natural resources will be crucial in the future. Thin-film solar cells and polymer solar cells, for instance, can be used in a wide range of applications. They can be flexibly installed and reduce material waste during installation. With regard to wind energy technologies, novel wind turbine designs help address the problems of power generation in areas with low wind speeds. Additionally, innovations are emerging to harness underwater waves to generate energy, thus increasing the range of natural energy resources.
Significance of Environmental Preservation
Increasing the use of renewable energy will help reduce air pollution and tackle climate change. As a result, generating energy from natural resources becomes vital to fostering a sustainable environment and elevating people's quality of life.
Economic and Societal Impacts
Developing renewable energy technologies plays a pivotal role in fostering sustainable economic and social growth in the long term. Addressing the challenges and impacts of disruptive technologies is, therefore, a crucial task of all sectors, including the government, private sector, social organizations, and the general public, must collaborate together. Every individual from all sectors must join forces to enable efficient and sustainable applications of technological innovations.
