A Summary Report
Of
The APEC EWG-ISTWG Workshop on Roadmapping Future Fuels Technologies
The 25th New and Renewable Energy Technologies Expert Group Meeting
October 31, 2005, Chinese Taipei

chnologies—An EWG-ISTWG Cooperation
BackgroundEnergy security issues have been the central
concern of APEC Leaders’ and Energy Ministers’ since the year 2000
Hence, EWG has formulated a comprehensive Energy Security Initiative (ESI) comprising both short-term and long-term responses, of which APEC Energy Ministers have endorsed the following three long-term measuresCapitalizing on technological innovationExpanding our energy choicesUsing energy more efficiently

BackgroundAs energy technologies do underpin social and economi
c development, the ISTWG also saw the great technical challenges ahead and started a two-year project on future fuels technology, entitled Foresighting Future Fuel Technology, with APEC-funding in 2005
The IST Ministers have directed the ISTWG to work with the EWG on the project and the Energy Ministers at EMM6 noted the direction from the IST Ministers and have asked the EWG to support the efforts

Progress of EWG-ISTWG CollaborationThe ISTWG project consists of three technology
roadmapping workshops in 2005 and Chinese Taipei made a self-funded project, endorsed at EWG 28, to host the second technology roadmapping workshop
EWG had participated, by the Secretariat and Chinese Taipei, in the ISTWG Scenario Planning Workshop held in Thailand, December 13~15, 2004
Chinese Taipei and APERC also participated in the first technology roadmapping workshop held in Vancouver, Canada April 27~29, 2005

ObjectiveThe overall objective of the project is to assess the
medium and long-term scenarios of future fuel technology development and to develop technology roadmaps for the scenarios
Potential benefits for APEC include:Strengthened long-term energy securitySustainable developmentReduced risks through partnership and collaborationImportant inputs to long-term energy policy

The second technology roadmapping workshop was held jointly by the EWG and ISTWG in Ping-tung, Chinese Taipei, August 10~12, 2005
The Workshop drew experts from 9 APEC Economies plus invited speakers from EBN, APERC and EGNRET, with a total of 49 participants

Participants were divided into three sub-groups on Bio-fuels, Unconventional Hydrocarbons and Hydrogen/Fuel Cells to refine the three respective roadmaps developed in the first workshop in Canada
Efforts were particularly made in the Chinese Taipei workshop to focus on synergies between the three fuel types and potential areas for APEC collaboration
Solar Photo-Electroch. C1/C0 Fuels All Applications
Thermal-Chemical Dissociation H2 All Applications

Much research still required for cost competitivenessReformation maximizing H2 yield and minimizing footprint for a
given feedstock
Reformation suitable for multiple feedstock in small stationary applications
High temp. membrane for PEMFC and lowering operation temp. for SOFC
Major scientific breakthrough for on-board storage of hydrogen
Experimental techniques to probe the inside of fuel cells
Sustained investment from government needed Hydrogen only as clean as its source and life-cycle
environmental impact analyses required for mass deployment

Integration of Future Fuel Supply

ObservationAll economies will have an integrated mixed fuel strategyThe mixture will vary regionally and will depend on:
– Cost competitiveness of alternatives (primarily)– Government policy (secondarily)
Governments will be energized by public attitudes and special interests in the following areas– Impact of energy price on economy– Perceived or real threats to public health and safety– Security of supply
Distribution infrastructure is costly and will be developed only for major fuels, i.e. secondary fuels will be most cost competitive by adapting to use this infrastructure to the maximum or are employed in a distributed manner

Future Project ActionsInterim roadmaps will be finalized and synergie
s between them will be emphasized
An integrated, multi-pathway approach will be recommended for adoption to maximize R&D effectiveness
The draft technology roadmaps and report will be examined lastly in the final workshop in Chiangmai, Thailand, November 3~4, 2005
