ITRE is the abbreviation for the European Parliament Committee on Industry, Research and Energy.
Lyon 2015 - Academic Power Shifts Forum
Participants at the youth conference in Lyon discussed the following topic in the ITRE committee:
- ITRE I
- Energy independence at the expense of the environment? Providing over 11% of the world’s electricity and about 30% in the EU, nuclear energy is still prominent in our current energy mix as it increases the nation’s energy independence and serves as a carbon-neutral energy production tool in a time of climate change. On the other hand, it poses the danger of immediate safety risks and long-term environmental impacts in case of accidents. What way should the EU choose in using nuclear energy for the European energy mix? Do alternatives, such as Thorium or fusion power plants, pave a way forward?
- ITRE II
- Energy independence at the expense of the environment? How can the EU support the development of hydraulic fracturing and minimise the method’s possible negative environmental impact in accordance with its current strategy for the European energy mix?
- ITRE III
- Smart cities and smart regions: Climate change puts different challenges on rural and urban areas not only regarding the provision of public services and a fair access to energy but also guaranteeing the safety of its inhabitants. What role in the energy mix of the future should decentralised energy production play to achieve sustainability, reliability and affordability?
Warsaw 2016 - Power Shifts Academic Forum
Participants at the youth conference in Warsaw discussed the following topic in the ITRE committee:
- ITRE I
- In light of on-going struggle to develop a coherent grid strategy across borders, how can the EU build up upon previous results in order to ensure the architecture standards are coherent with the developments in decentralised energy?
- ITRE II
- Securing gas supply for good: Given the insufficient resilience of most EU Member States to gas shortages, what stance should the EU agree upon to ensure both a solidary and diversified supply of gas?
Heidelberg 2017 - Power Shifts Academic Forum
Participants at the youth conference in Heidelberg discuss the following topic in the ITRE committees:
- ITRE I
- Renewables becoming mainstream: What effective and economically efficient policies should the EU and its Member States prioritise in order to accelerate the integration of renewable electricity, heating and transport?
- ITRE II
- Timing matters: what measures should the EU take in order to increase energy efficiency from production to consumption and across sectors?
- ITRE III
- Accelerating ICT innovation: with SMEs and startups shaping energy transition and innovation how can the EU support its economy to get to the forefront of managing a successful energy transformation?
