(93c) Energy Transition: Engineering Solutions for a Sustainable Future

The global shift towards sustainable energy sources has become imperative in addressing the challenges of climate change, resource depletion, and environmental degradation. Energy Transition refers to the gradual transformation from a reliance on fossil fuels to a diversified energy system dominated by renewables, such as solar, wind, and bioenergy. This shift requires not only innovative technologies but also systemic changes across infrastructure, policies, and energy consumption behaviors.

We will talk about how we approach Energy Transition with a focus on engineering solutions that drive efficiency and minimize environmental impact. Our work involves optimizing industrial processes, enhancing energy integration, and implementing digital tools to monitor and manage energy use. By applying principles such as waste heat recovery and advanced process modeling, we help industries align with sustainability goals without compromising operational effectiveness. Through this seminar, we aim to explore practical strategies and case studies that highlight the intersection of engineering and sustainability, offering insights into how industries can actively contribute to a low-carbon future.
