    Description: India is currently at a crucial juncture where it is aiming for economic growth to meet the basic needs of its 1.2 billion people. However, so far this growth has resulted in energy shortages and the increasing use of limited resources. This policy brief series is about decoupling, i.e. improving efficiency to reduce the resources and energy needed for this growth and meet the country's increasing development needs. The construction sector is highly resource and energy intensive; it is therefore imperative that it moves towards a path of environmental sustainability. This transition is likely to be achieved by decoupling both resource and energy use from the sector's growth. Decision-makers in the sector will play a crucial role in achieving this. The aim of this policy brief series is to inform decision-makers in India at central government and state level about the current status of research, policy and institutions in the Indian construction sector and to identify key drivers and barriers. Finally, practical recommendations will be made for decision-makers about how to promote decoupling of resource and energy use from growth in the construction sector. Policy brief 1 focuses on the baseline for decoupling in the Indian construction sector. The study draws attention to the existing scenario in terms of key policies, research and institutions linked to resources and energy in the sector.

Finally, practical recommendations will be made for decision-makers about how to promote decoupling of resource and energy use from growth in the construction sector. Policy brief 2 focuses on analysing the potential for decoupling in the Indian buildings and construction sector. Primary and secondary research was conducted to identify the factors that influence decoupling. Subsequently, a framework was established to make it possible to measure the nature and extent of decoupling that is possible within the existing policy environment. Furthermore, gaps, drivers and barriers have been identified which could enable a potential analysis study on decoupling to be carried out. In addition, examples of good practice from Germany and other European countries have been studied with a view to learning lessons that can help to bridge the current gaps in India.

    Description: Die Prozesse der Grundstoffindustrie sind verantwortlich für einen Großteil des industriellen Energie- und Stromverbrauchs in Deutschland. Welche technischen Möglichkeiten bieten sich in diesen Prozessen auf Flexibilitätsanforderungen des Stromsystems zu reagieren? Das vom BMBF geförderte Kopernikus-Projekt SynErgie untersucht die Flexibilität von Industrieprozessen. Ein Arbeitspaket, das aus dem Projektantrag des INFLUX Konsortiums hervorgegangen ist, hat nun umfassende Studie zu den Flexibilitätsoptionen in den Prozessen der Grundstoffindustrie veröffentlicht.

    Description: Innerhalb des Kopernikus-Projekts "Synchronisierte und energieadaptive Produktionstechnik zur flexiblen Ausrichtung von Industrieprozessen auf eine fluktuierende Energieversorgung" - kurz SynErgie - erheben Wissenschaftlerinnen und Wissenschaftler das Flexibilisierungspotenzial von Industrieprozessen und versuchen die Machbarkeit an Schlüsselprozessen zu demonstrieren. Die technischen Herausforderungen und Lösungsoptionen, die sich in den Prozessen der Grundstoffindustrie - wie etwa Stahl, Chemie, Zement, Glas und Feuerfest - ergeben, haben sie bereits in einem ersten Band "Flexibilitätsoptionen in der Grundstoffindustrie: Methodik, Potenziale, Hemmnisse" ausführlich beschrieben und auf Basis einer eigens entwickelten Methodik analysiert. Der Fokus des vorliegenden zweiten Bandes liegt auf den Flexibilitätsperspektiven, die sich durch hybride Wärmebereitstellung, den Einsatz thermischer Energiespeicher und der Nutzung synthetischer Gase in den entsprechenden Branchen ergeben können. Hierzu erweiterten die Forschenden die bereits im ersten Band entwickelte Methodik um die relevanten Aspekte der Gasversorgung und thermischen Speicherung. Anhand von konkreten technischen Beispielen aus den Branchen stellen sie darin die Anwendungsmöglichkeiten und ein gegebenenfalls daraus folgendes Flexibilitätspotenzial dar und diskutieren dies.
