Kang speaks with IHS Markit Vice Chairman Daniel Yergin for a new edition of CERAWeek Conversations – available at https://ondemand.ceraweek.com/cwc

WASHINGTON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--In the latest episode of the new CERAWeek Conversations series for 2021, Joe Kang, president of the International Gas Union (IGU), whose members represent more than 95% of the global gas market, discusses why “gas supply is a catalyst for the energy transition;” how LNG’s flexibility allowed for “tremendous performance in this dire situation” during the pandemic-induced market shocks of 2020; and looking ahead to the 2022 World Gas Congress being “a living laboratory for testing new technologies.”

In a conversation with Daniel Yergin, vice chairman, IHS Markit (NYSE: INFO), Kang talks about how energy transition is “inherently, characteristically diverse and complex.” Reacting to the IEA’s May 2021 report on pathways to net-zero emissions by 2050, Kang says the IEA scenario—which envisions the global power mix being 90% renewables and 10% nuclear—“is too ambitious and impractical.”

“Given that the present global energy mix is 30% oil, 27% coal, 26% natural gas and less than 10% renewable, the energy transition is a time-consuming, expensive, step-by-step process. How can you change the whole landscape in less than 30 years?,” he says.

Speaking of the varying challenges that developed, developing and underdeveloped countries face in meeting net-zero goals, Kang says that “different patients with different diseases should have a different prescription. We don’t have a panacea in the energy issue. There is no yellow brick road in energy issues.”

Selected excerpts:

Interview Recorded Tuesday, June 22, 2021

(Edited slightly for brevity only)

• On global LNG demand during the pandemic years and drivers of future growth:
  
  “I’m really surprised to see the performance in 2020. Everyone predicted that the LNG [market] would be down. But we saw the 12th year of continuous growth. 2020 was no exception. We had a tremendous performance in this dire situation.”
  
  “LNG has a great advantage for its flexibility and agility. In 2020 [during] the pandemic we actually made progress in terms of consumption especially as oil and coal consumption were down almost 30% from 2019. LNG is different because we did have a huge drop right after the pandemic, but this winter there was a real spike in demand. Thanks to LNG we can manage the huge ups and downs of energy consumption.”
  
  “Asia is the primary growth market for LNG thanks to China on the demand side. But on the supply side, Australia and the U.S. played a key role in meeting demand from Asia. Now it is well balanced. The future outlook of LNG I see as very bright. LNG and piped natural gas are 30% of world gas production. Only 30% is traded: 10% is LNG, 20% is through piped natural gas. I see the increase in LNG outpacing piped natural gas.”
  
  
• On the unique role of gas in the decarbonization agenda:
  
  “Gas has four core attributes: Energy supply that is accessible, secure, constant and affordable. Gas supply is a catalyst for the energy transition. We’ve proved those attributes of natural gas. In the future we are always ‘friends’ with renewables…You can see the trajectory in the global energy mix. Two energy sources are increasing. One is renewables, the other is natural gas. Renewables has a lack of flexibility, intermittency and seasonality. Gas does not have that. We can complement the shortage of renewables. That’s why we call gas a hand-in-hand partner to renewables.”
  
  
• On the IEA’s May 2021 report on decarbonization roadmaps to 2050:
  
  “I believe gas will continue to play [a partnering role to renewables] but the IEA’s roadmap to 2050 didn’t say that. They didn’t recognize how gas contributes to the energy transition. We value the IGU stance and we are really honored it is an analytical forecast of the energy mix. But we differ [with the IEA] on the pathway of how to move forward to meet climate goals.”
  
  “The IEA said that by 2050 [the global power mix would be] 90% of renewables, 10% nuclear. Also, 90% of renewable electricity would be shared between wind power and solar PV. Given that the present global energy mix is 30% oil, 27% coal, 26% natural gas and less than 10% renewable, the energy transition is a time-consuming, expensive, step-by-step process. How can you change the whole landscape in less than 30 years? That scenario is too ambitious and impractical.”
  
  “We share the values of the IEA. But to meet net zero emissions, maybe this can be done in some parts of the world. Europe can maintain and manage that target. But in some developing or underdeveloped Asian countries, they see this as global policy centralization. Underdeveloped or developing countries say this is a second wave of imperialism. That’s not the view of the IGU, it’s the view of developing and underdeveloped countries, because we do have IGU charter members from Asia.”
  
  “The energy issue is inherently, characteristically diverse and complex. Different patients with different diseases should have a different prescription. We don’t have a panacea in the energy issue. There is no yellow brick road in energy issues.”
  
  
• On the outlook for hydrogen:
  
  “Renewables have a very bright future, including hydrogen. On the world scene, new technologies, new things are very [welcome]. We have to analyze the property of hydrogen in a very extensive and accurate way. Hydrogen is, for sure, for the future. But hydrogen is a secondary energy, not like natural gas. Secondary energy is converted from primary energy, or electrolysis from water with a huge injection of electricity. According to the IEA’s roadmap scenario, half of the technology for hydrogen in the energy transition has not yet materialized.”
  
  “Hydrogen is a new technology. But we haven’t looked at what are the manufacturing costs in terms of capex, opex and what infrastructure we need. What are the safety issues that we’re going to face in the future? The IEA said only one side of the plan, they only talked about the goals to reach the climate challenge. But they didn’t list the costs involved. I imagine this is a trillion dollars that we have to pay to enter the hydrogen era. Who is going to pay for it?”
  
  
• On the agenda for the World Gas Conference in May 2022 in Daegu, Korea:
  
  “In Korea, we are very successful to [potentially] reach herd immunity by the first part of November. The World Gas Conference is classified as the ‘Gas Olympics.’ The World Gas Conference is not only natural gas. It’s all kind of gases and also infrastructure and the technology related to ship building and the auto industry. Korea is the right place to provide the platform to discuss all issues relevant to the gas industry.”
  
  “Maritime organizations say that all of the new ships will be driven by LNG. Most of the ship orders that have arrived at Korean companies are LNG-driven vessels. Also, Hyundai announced they are going to manufacture cars driven by hydrogen. The World Gas Conference is a living laboratory for testing new technologies and new things in the coming decades.”

SHEFFIELD, England--(BUSINESS WIRE)--#cbm--Every year 40 billion litres of lubrication oil is used to keep most machines running efficiently and reliably - from manufacturing, ships, planes and cranes to robots, generators, wind-turbines, trucks and cars - even electric cars. However, a new study shows that most lubrication oil is changed when it still has 30% life left, which means 12 billion litres of oil are needlessly consumed and discarded every year.

This is a huge hidden cost – both an environmental cost equivalent to 35.7 million tons of CO2 (or the equivalent of removing 1.5 million cars from the road) and a financial cost of $120 billion just in oil every year. New technology in the form of a small sensor enables oil quality to be accurately analysed in real-time and the perfect change point identified, thus enabling an instant and easy 30% reduction in use and waste.

New long-life oils are contributing towards reducing annual use, however, unless they are used to the full extent of their life, 30% of these oils are still wasted due to fixed time scheduled maintenance, rather than a schedule based upon actual need. Until now the only reliable way to know the real condition of oil in machinery was expensive sampling and lab analysis, as such 99.9% of equipment has oil changed based upon time schedules, resulting in 30% waste.

A new oil analysis sensor technology from Tan Delta Systems in the UK enables a tiny, low cost, sensor to be fitted to any equipment to analyse oil quality in real-time and tell the user exactly when the oil needs changing, thus enabling the full life of oil to be used without any risk to equipment, realising significant reductions in CO2 and cost.

The sensors can be deployed on anything: cars, robots, trucks, wind turbines, ships, planes, generators – even on the pumps and drilling rigs used by the oil industry itself to realise massive carbon reductions. This innovation shows how technology can help make meaningful steps to achieving global and corporate ESG objectives.

In addition to affordable, renewable energy for over 700,000 homes, Atlantic Shores’ project includes millions of dollars in key investments in New Jersey workers, leading academic institutions, environmental and community organizations; the creation of a nacelle assembly facility; the launch of an innovative green hydrogen pilot and more

Over lifespan of the project, the wind project is expected to create thousands of well-paying jobs

ATLANTIC CITY, N.J.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Today, the New Jersey Board of Public Utilities awarded Atlantic Shores Offshore Wind (Atlantic Shores) a contract to develop 1,510 Megawatt (MW) in offshore wind energy, enough to power over 700,000 homes. Atlantic Shores is a 50-50 joint venture between EDF Renewables North America and Shell New Energies US, and its Lease Area is located approximately 10-20 miles off the coast of New Jersey between Atlantic City and Barnegat Light. In total, the 1510 MW project will bring $848 million in guaranteed local economic benefits to the state. This is the largest single project in New Jersey and the third largest in the United States.

“Thank you to the Board of Public Utilities for their thorough and well-run process. We are thrilled to be moving forward with our project and cementing our commitment to deliver clean, renewable power and well-paid jobs to the Garden State for years to come,” said Joris Veldhoven, Commercial and Finance Director at Atlantic Shores. “As offshore wind prepares to take off in the United States, this is a critical moment to lay the groundwork for workforce training and supply chain development. Our robust project includes a number of essential initiatives to train local workers and bring manufacturing jobs to the state that will ensure New Jersey workers and the local economy reap tremendous benefits.”

Atlantic Shores’ project, which aims to begin construction in 2024, includes a number of essential investments and initiatives, including an agreement to train and hire local workers for the construction and maintenance of the wind project, an innovative 10 MW green hydrogen pilot with South Jersey Industries and a turbine nacelle assembly center to the New Jersey Wind Port. Over its lifetime, the wind project will create thousands of well-paying jobs.

“This award is a win for workers across New Jersey who will be poised to lead in our state’s offshore wind and the burgeoning green economy as a result of Atlantic Shores’ commitment to job training,” said Greg Lalevee, Business Manager at International Union of Operating Engineers Local 825. “Union labor built New Jersey, and now it will build its offshore wind industry as well.”

Mike Renna, SJI president and chief executive officer, said, “South Jersey Industries is excited to be part of Atlantic Shores’ winning project to develop 1510MW in clean, renewable wind energy for our state. Our partnership on a green hydrogen pilot project will be essential to unlocking additional decarbonized energy sources for New Jersey and diversifying our renewable energy mix. We look forward to collaborating on this innovative project, making New Jersey a national leader in the green economy.”

Atlantic Shores’ project also includes a number of investments in New Jersey’s top academic institutions, including Rutgers University, Stockton University and Rowan College, to cultivate the next generation of industry leaders.

“Atlantic Shores has shown us again and again that they are committed to New Jersey communities, and this award cements that commitment for decades to come,” said Joseph Brodie, Offshore Wind Research Lead with the Rutgers University Center for Ocean Observing Leadership. “Our students and scientists benefit greatly from our partnership on cutting-edge environmental and ecological research in and around Atlantic Shores’ Lease Area. As the offshore wind industry takes off in our state, we hope to continue building our essential partnership to advance scientific understanding of the climate, renewable energy, animal migration, our marine ecosystem and more.”
