Algerian Energy Transition Dialogue

We aim to create a practical and convenient environment for dialogue. Including the right stakeholders in the dialogue, clarifies different perspectives, standpoints and interests during discussions of the wide variety of global energy transitions, from grid power, all energies (including oil, gas, coal, nuclear, hydro, wind and other emerging renewables), transport networks, macroeconomics, and more.

    Play Energy Podcast Season 02 Episode 02: Concentrating Solar Power Systems (CSP)

    CSP is a powerful and exciting technology for large-scale solar power generation. Although it has been in use since the 1980’s, it is still seen as somewhat new and emerging, with innovation and efficiency improvements under active development in this episode Dr. Sulaiman Fadlallah discuss with what is a CSP system in general and the significant scope for the amount of CSP generated power to grow appreciably over the coming years, given the advances in heat transfer fluids and thermal energy retention. In short, there appears to be a bright future for CSP.  Who is Dr. Sulaiman Fadlallah is currently a lecturer in Engineering (Mechanical) at the School of Computing and Engineering, University of Huddersfield, UK. He received his Bachelor of Engineering degree in Mechatronics Engineering and Master of Science degree in Mechanical Engineering from Sultan Qaboos University, Oman and PhD degree in Mechanical Engineering from Auckland University of Technology, New Zealand. He has authored and co-authored over twenty four journal articles in top journals, a book chapter and eight conference proceedings. His current research interests include Concentrated Solar Power (CSP) systems, Fluid-Structure Interaction, Computational Fluid Dynamics, Composite Materials, and Engineering Mechanics and Design applications.

  2. Oil & Gas decarbonization future, Perspectives, Opportunities and Challenges (PART 02).

    Oil & Gas decarbonization future, Perspectives, Opportunities and Challenges (PART 02).

    In the first part of the 3rd episode Mr. Reda Amrani has talked about the decarbonization and energy around the world stating how big Oil & Gas companies are taking bold actions in this context, the second part will be dedicated to look through the Algerian Oil & Gas market and what are the technological solutions that would be considered to reach a net zero goal. If the world is to come anywhere near to meeting its climate-change goals, the oil and gas (O&G) industry will have to play a big part. Published in 2020, a report by Mckinsey shows that the industry’s operations account for 9 % of all human-made greenhouse-gas emissions. In addition, it produces the fuels that create another 33 % of global emissions. The O&G sector will play an important role in the global energy transition; how it will face that future is a matter of strategy. As transparency increases, so may expectations. Customers, employees, and investors are already starting to distinguish the leaders from the laggards. O&G companies that will developpe this side could find themselves better positioned for change. Advancement in technologies, the falling cost of digitalization, and the ever-widening connectivity of devices provide a real competition-beating opportunity to upstream O&G companies who play the digital revolution right. The lower-for-longer downturn and moderating operational gains have provided an extra incentive—or turned the opportunity into a need—for companies to save millions from their operating costs and, most importantly, make their $3.4 trillion asset base smarter and more efficient.
