Special Session - TC24

Gas analysis for climate change and energy transition

TC24 is organising a Special session on the topic of  'Gas Analysis for climate change and energy transition' inside the Conference program. It will be a great opportunity for the interational community working in this field to meet and share latest results achieved.

The rise in atmospheric greenhouse gases is the primary driver of climate change. Closely monitoring the gas phase composition of the atmosphere is therefore critically important to understand and monitor climate change. Robust metrology for greenhouse gases monitoring in the air will be vital to achieve zero-pollution and carbon neutrality, ambitions laid out in strategies by both the European Union and the United Nations.

In striving towards environmental sustainability and a reliable energy network, it is vital to address outstanding fundamental challenges to establish renewable gases (e.g. Hydrogen, Ammonia, Biomethane) as a fuel source and as an energy vector. To ensure the safety and reliability of renewable gaseous fuels it is important to have robust, accurate measurements that can be traced to established standards.
