Abstract
Carbon neutral or even carbon negative requirements have been risen in the climate change discussions. Do we anyway need thermal power plants? Can we get enough biofuels? What about the life cycle of oil and gas? Hydrogen is said to be a solution but it requires electricity, preferably solar and wind power, to be sustainable. Can we electrify industry if we have a shortage of renewable power? Is it reasonable to use electricity in heating? What about solar thermal, geothermal, etc.? Traffic and transportation are claimed to go electric. However, we have different types of cars, vehicles and machines. Obviously, we need a wider perspective.
Where are the bottlenecks? Where are the new possibilities? We have so many interactive solutions which linked with circular economy. Forests and agriculture are said to cause problems but also as solutions. How can we find an improved balance? This integrates food, soil, soil, air and energy – i.e. practically everything. Where to start?
What modelling and simulation can provide? Dynamic simulation is widely used. A lot of discussions are about digital twins. We need mathematics, natural sciences and computation. Can we use simulation efficiently to solve the questions: How fast changes can be realized? What is the realistic and reasonable speed? How should we focus in research?
What is the role of automation in this? How does it help in reaching a resource and energy efficient sustainable future?
