Global Energy Solutions

For Prosperity and Climate Neutrality

Mission

We develop global solutions and business models on energy, climate and development issues. Our goal is a climate-neutral energy system – with the following elements: green electricity, green hydrogen, biological as well as technical CO2 recycling, climate-neutral energy sources and fuels – including methanol. During production, CO2 is used materially and thus becomes an interesting economic asset. Together with industrial and scientific partners, we are developing technical, entrepreneurial and administrative foundations for significant investments in this field of the future. Investments that pay off.

Three to four times more expensive than fossil jet fuel

Harald Dialer, HCS Group Die HCS Group will 2026 in Speyer 60.000 Tonnen Sustainable Aviation Fuels (SAF) produzieren. Das erscheint wie eine stolze Menge – gemessen an der Nachfrage nach Kerosin ist es aber nur ein Tropfen auf den heißen Stein. SAF steht für Flugkraftstoffe, die nicht aus fossilen, sondern unterschiedlichen regenerativen Quellen stammen. Harald Dialer von der HCS Group erläutert, warum der Hochlauf der Produktion so schwierig ist: Weil die Logistikketten noch nicht vorhanden sind. Weil SAF noch teuer…

Basis documentation of the GES reference solution published

On behalf of the German Federal Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development (BMZ), Global Energy Solutions has developed a reference solution for a global climate-neutral and prosperity-creating energy system. It shows a path that enables ten billion people to live in freedom with adequate prosperity in social balance, an intact environment and a stable climate…

GES reference solution: Extended OECD, China Club and Challenge Group as the basis of the model

Where are the major challenges in solving global energy and climate issues? GES assumes that the rich countries will achieve their goal of climate neutrality for the year 2050 on their own, if only because of their economic and technical potential. The same applies to countries like China and Russia, which have also set themselves…

Rainforest protection, reforestation and restoration of degraded soils: building blocks of the GES reference model

Nature-based solutions for binding CO2 play a decisive role in climate protection. The aim is to preserve, relieve and expand the absorption capacity of the biosphere. In addition to their positive impact on the climate, nature-based solutions have many positive effects in terms of the 2030 Agenda, with the potential to create several trillion US…

What will become of e-fuels in the European Union?

The far-reaching end for cars with internal combustion engines in the EU is in sight. From 2035, no new cars that run on petrol or diesel may be sold. Under pressure from the FDP, however, the German government has managed to get internal combustion vehicles fuelled exclusively with climate-neutral fuels approved as well. An assessment…

Dr Gerd Müller, Director-General of UNIDO, on the GES reference solution: "The outcome shows a possible and feasible way for the world to create a climate-neutral energy system in the coming decades that maintains prosperity and allows for catch-up development in emerging and developing countries." In his message from Nairobi, the former development minister reminded the audience that Africa's population will double over the next 30 years and that 600 million Africans still do not have electricity. Energy is the key to any development.

Team

The association Global Energy Solutions e.V. conducts analyses on current energy, climate and development issues. In a global perspective we develop solutions together with industry partners. The activities of the association are carried out in cooperation with the German Federal Ministry for Economic Development and Cooperation (BMZ).
