Echo: My reflections on the IEA’s latest EV outlook
The IEA has in April published their annual update to the Global EV Outlook. The electric vehicle adoption is gaining momentum, driven by technological advancements, supportive policies and shifting consumer preferences. The challenges lie particularly in terms of supply chain dependencies and the need for comprehensive infrastructure development.
Echo: O čom je najnovšia správa IEA o elektromobilite
Medzinárodná energetická agentúra (IEA) v apríli zverejnila svoju ročnú aktualizáciu Global EV Outlook. Elektrické vozidlá získavajú na popularite vďaka technologickému pokroku, podporou politikami vlád a meniacimi sa preferenciami spotrebiteľov smerom k environmentálnemu vnímaniu. Výzvou je závislosť dodávateľského reťazca a potreba komplexného rozvoja nabíjacej infraštruktúry.
Energia v digitálnom veku: Prečo je kybernetická bezpečnosť dôležitá
In October, I had the honor of presenting at the EPI Conference on a topic that is becoming increasingly important in our digital age: the intersection of energy security and cybersecurity. As our efforts to achieve a low-carbon economy and technological advancements reshape the traditional energy system, the integration of digital technologies introduces new vulnerabilities. Ensuring the security of our energy infrastructure against cyber threats is essential not just at the national level but also for businesses and households. This blog explores how cyber threats, such as ransomware and DDoS attacks, can disrupt our energy supply and offers practical recommendations to enhance our cybersecurity measures.
Slovakia on the path to carbon neutrality: What does it mean for you?
As one of the humble authors, I am excited to share our work on the importance of achieving carbon neutrality in Slovakia by 2050. In this report, we aim to enhance discussions in the public domain, promote cooperation among government bodies, and provide informative insights for policymakers, businesses, and the public. Let's dive into the analysis and discover the noteworthy messages it holds.
Slovensko na ceste k uhlíkovej neutralite: Čo to znamená pre vás?
Ako aj v minulosti, i nedávno som prispela svojou troškou k aktualizovanej verzii reportu "Nízko-uhlíkové Slovensko 2050, Aktualizácia analýzy scenárov vývoja emisií skleníkových plynov v Slovenskej republike". Report bol vypublikovaný v januári 2024 a popisuje aktualizovaný scenár dosiahnutia nulových emisií v roku 2050 pre Slovenskú republiku na základe nastavenia a výsledkov v modeli Pathways Explorer 2050.
Echo: OECD sees Slovakia is not on a net-zero pathway
The OECD analyzed Slovakia's environmental progress and published a report on April 18, titled "OECD Environmental Performance Reviews: Slovak Republic 2024". The review highlights that Slovakia has made some advancements in environmental protection in recent years but continues to face multiple challenges.
Echo: Podľa OECD nie je Slovensko na trajektórii k uhlíkovej neutralite
OECD zanalyzovala pokrok Slovenska v ochrane životného prostredia a vypublikovala 18. apríla report OECD Environmental Performance Reviews: Slovak Republic 2024. OECD vyhodnotila, že Slovenská republika dosiahla v posledných rokoch určitý pokrok v oblasti ochrany životného prostredia, ale stále čelí viacerým výzvam.
What do I mean when I talk about KEP?
The Climate and Energy Plan for a city or municipality should analyze the basic structure of energy, water, waste, vehicles and other activities within the operation or assets in the ownership of the city and local government. This includes municipal buildings (including schools, social facilities, administrative and other buildings), service vehicles, greenery services, cemeteries, sports facilities, public lighting, traffic lights and the city's public transport.
O čom hovorím, keď vravím o KEP?
Climate and energy plan for a small municipality as a high level strategy document highlights the need to invest into the municipal property - buildings, street lighting, district heating and others to mitigate climate change.
