The Danish climate policy targeting emission reductions of -70 % by 2030 and -100 % by 2050 will require very significant changes to our energy system and resource management in most society sectors. Realising green synthetic fuels for aviation and maritime transport is one of the most challenging tasks in this transition. Another one is how to cope with increasing mismatch between supply and demand, when solar cells and wind turbines will account for more and more of the electricity production.
