This year, the two public funded research projects Closed Carbon Cycle Mobility and REDIFUEL will come to an end and thus organize a final event jointly with the running project LONGRUN. Beyond very promising and trendsetting technical results, the event will discuss many general aspects, such as economic implications and political hurdles in the market ramp-up of alternative fuels. Those non-technical results will be a major outcome of all three projects – especially in the context of future discussions and legislative negotiations on European CO2-regulations. The discussions are enriched by external speakers from politics and economic associations.
