“…As an adaptation, efforts are in place for decreasing fossil energy consumption [ 9 ], greater attention has been put on optimal management and use of natural resources [ 10 ] along with the development of renewable resources. In 2017, The European Union was able to arrange 17.5% of its consumed energy from renewable resources and aims to reach 32% by 2030 [ 11 ].…”

Global warming as a result of climate change has become a major concern for people all over the world. It has recently drawn the attention of the entire conscious community, with the fear that if not addressed properly, it will result in the extinction of numerous species around the world. At the same time, it will pose a threat to human health, food security, living environment and standard of living. Thereby, possible solutions are being explored accordingly; regulations have been imposed in places binding green production practices, limiting the emission of CO 2 and emphasis is given on renewable resources along with the search for alternatives to carbon-positive materials. Cannabis sativa L. (hemp) has received a lot of attention because of its multipurpose usability, short production cycle, low capital demand in cultivation, possibility of carbon-negative transformation and easy carbon sequestering material. This paper reviews hemp as a very promising renewable resource including its potential uses in paper, textiles, composites, biofuel, and food industry.

“…Then, as part of a monthly automated procedure, integrated into the Climate Data Store (CDS). The dataset is freely available to download from the CDS 8 to anyone who has a registered account (DOI: 10.24381/cds.4bd77450). In addition to downloading the data from the CDS, users are able to access and plot data via the online visualisation tool 9 , made available as part of the CDS toolbox.…”

“…The increasing share of renewable generation, mainly from wind and solar energy together with hydro power, will increase the exposure of the energy sector to climate variability and change [1,4]. In the past few years, several studies have looked at the feasibility of a European power system with large shares of renewable generation [5][6][7][8][9]. Similar studies have been carried out for other locations [10][11][12][13][14][15].…”

“…Rather than an end-product, the dataset should be seen as the demonstration that it is possible to combine all the necessary elements to provide relevant information to help energy modelers and decisions makers better integrate the effects of climate variability and climate change in long-term energy prospective studies, as well as seasonal outlooks. It provides a strong basis for studying the impacts of climate variability and climate change on current and future energy mixes in Europe, like in[8]. Efforts should be pursued to better identify and meet end-user needs to ensure that the further development of the C3S-E service addresses the challenges raised by climate change and the energy transition.…”

The EU Copernicus Climate Change Service (C3S) has produced an operational climate service, called C3S Energy, designed to enable the energy industry and policy makers to assess the impacts of climate variability and climate change on the energy sector in Europe. The C3S Energy service covers different time horizons, for the past forty years and the future. It provides time series of electricity demand and supply from wind, solar photovoltaic and hydro power, and can be used for recent trends analysis, seasonal outlooks or the assessment of climate change impacts on energy mixes in the long-term.This paper introduces this dataset, with a focus on the design and validation of the energy conversion models, based on ENTSO-E energy data and the ERA5 climate reanalysis. Flexibility and coherence across all countries have been privileged upon models’ accuracy. However, the comparison with ENTSO-E data shows that the models provide plausible energy indicators and, in particular, allow to compare climate variability effects on power demand and generation in an homogenous approach all over Europe.

“…Growing installations of renewable generation and the electrification of heating and transport are increasing the energy sectors' exposure to weather and climate (Deakin et al 2021) and the impact of growing weather-sensitivity is further compounded by an uncertain and changing climate (Bloomfield et al 2021a;Jaroszweski et al 2021).…”

What: Approximately 40 participants – with expertise spanning energy, computer science, weather and climate research -– joined a week-long Energy-Climate data “hackathon” in June 2021. It was hosted by the Universities of Oxford and Reading in partnership with the UK Met Office as part of a series of themed hackathons supported by the Met Office and held in the run-up to the UN COP26 conference. Six projects were initiated and developed by teams over the course of the week, supported by access to state-of-the-art computational resources on the UK’s CEDA-JASMIN service, and stimulated by keynote speakers from industry and academia. The hackathon concluded with teams presenting their outputs to a panel of invited experts. Several teams plan to build on their hackathon success in publications, ongoing collaborations and research funding proposals. When: 18th May (half-day “scoping” event) & 21st-25th June 2021 (main hackathon) Where: Online via Zoom and Gather.Town, supported by Slack communication channels Affiliations: Initiated by: University of Oxford Dr Sarah Sparrow, Professor David Wallom, Professor Tim Woollings, & University of Reading Professor David Brayshaw, Dr Hannah Bloomfield, In partnership with the Met Office, the UK’s national meteorological service, and with support from the UK’s CEDA-JASMIN service and Gurobi optimization software.
