Abstract

The future panorama of the energy consumption and production looks constrained by the environmental agenda, pushing the industrial players, such as the pulp, paper and paperboard sector, to the reduction of their GHG emissions at their production facilities (reducing the carbon footprint). It is convenient to be aware what are the emissions restrictions being enforced and what are the technological options to face such challenges. This project intention is to look into this binomial: energy policies and innovations for decarbonisation. For the later one, innovation, special attention is put on reviewing the conversion technologies -under the umbrella concept of Power-to-X- that could enable synthesising liquid or gaseous fuels derived from captured CO2.
