| 16:15 – 18:45 | Concurrent Sessions (Part 1)[Session overview]Geothermal power is one of the most stable sources of renewable energy with significant potential for further development. In this session, the focus will be on policies with a remarkably long term outlook, such as 2030 and 2050 (e.g. Kenya, Switzerland). Secondly, technological development, especially new challenges aiming at supercritical fluids utilization will also be discussed.
[Session overview]Hydrogen is expected to become one of the major fuel resources in the future, as it produces no pollutants or greenhouse gases when used. It can also enhance energy security by using domestically available renewable resources for production. In this session, a policy roadmap for realizing hydrogen based society will be presented and discussed. Then, the session will look into economic and technological prerequisites for realizing this vision. Subsequently, the current situation and prospects of every stage of the value chain, including production, transportation and application, will be discussed.
[Session overview]Nuclear power can play a major role as carbon-free base load power source to serve the growing electricity demand of the world. In this session, we will discuss the deployment of nuclear power plants in emerging and developing economies, strategies to make nuclear power more acceptable for society, and the prospect of R&D, along with how we can overcome challenges such as safety, nuclear waste handling, and non-proliferation of nuclear arms.
[Session overview]Sectoral cooperation in the cement sector has progressed through WBCSD CSI activities so far. In this session, a stock taking of the existing outcomes of the sectoral cooperation and discussions of future activities in the sector will take place. It will particularly cover innovative technologies (e.g. CCS) and the importance of social infrastructure (e.g. waste treatment).
[Session overview]Iron and steel industry is one of the most energy-intensive industries and therefore holds a large greenhouse gas reduction potential. In this session, past and current energy conservation and CO2 reduction measures of this industry will be shared, and based on this, possible actions for this industry and necessary support and policy measures to promote further CO2 reduction from 2020 will be discussed. In addition, the iron and steel industries’ possible global warming prevention contribution in other industries will be pointed out.
[Session overview]Energy supply and demand should be considered as a system composed of element technologies, and also as a societal subsystem related strongly with national security, economic development and environmental sustainability. In this session, recent topics including changes in the global energy market, possible emergence of new technologies and the relationship between the energy system and the ecosystem will be discussed. Furthermore, important long-term issues for the energy system will also be considered.
Technology Transfer to Developing Countries and Investment Promotion[Session overview]Technology transfer from developed countries to developing countries plays an essential role in mitigating climate change. In the session, the international framework to promote technology transfer and private investment (both at UN and bilateral levels) will first be discussed. Secondly, discussions about enabling environment, such as policy and human capacity development, and necessary elements that technologies should fulfill to take root in recipient countries will take place.

| 09:00 – 11:30 | Concurrent Sessions (Part 2)[Session overview]Artificial photosynthesis is a promising method for creating sustainable fuel and chemicals. Since it is still in a research stage, this session will firstly focus on sharing the current status of research projects in three of the leading in this area: the USA, Korea, and Japan. Also, effectiveness and competitiveness compared with other technologies will be discussed. Finally, based on the abovementioned discussion, a plausible future image of practical use of artificial photosynthesis will be shared.
[Session overview]Wind power has become a global movement and is viewed as an important future source of energy supply. In this session, various wind power related technologies, such as onshore, offshore and floating wind turbines, grid integration will be discussed. Furthermore, different technical and social situations which can promote the use of wind energy will be brought into light.
[Session overview]In recent years, the demand for Electricity Storage Systems (ESS) deployment in the power system is increasing, due to large-scale introduction of variable generation. In this session, deployment strategies and technology perspectives of ESS, specifically, ESS deployment strategy determined by locality and technology application will be covered, with presentations on region specific policies and technology development perspectives.
[Session overview]The development of the smart grid is seen as one important component in integrating large amounts of renewable energy into the electricity grid. In this session, the latest developments on smart grid technologies will be discussed together with topics such as how the electricity market should be regulated to facilitate the introduction of renewable energy, and how customers should be engaged regarding electricity use.
[Session overview]The buildings sector is the largest energy-consuming sectors, accounting for over one-third of final energy consumption globally, and as such it is a huge source of CO2 emissions. Therefore, efforts to promote Zero Energy Buildings (ZEB)/Positive Energy Buildings (PEB) have been accelerating worldwide. In this session, technological innovation required for the realization of ZEB/PEB will be discussed. Following this, barriers that prevent the diffusion of ZEB/PEB, and the possible countermeasure policies will be highlighted.
[Session overview]According to the IPCC, the transport sector represents about 14% of global GHG emissions. Whereas renewable energy is increasing in electricity generation, mobility is still largely dependent on fossil fuels. In this session, we will look at the outlook for light automobiles in particular, and how to get this sector to move towards sustainable alternative fuels. Furthermore, the session will investigate the state of innovation in technology of both new vehicles (EV* and FCV**) and conventional vehicles. * Electric Vehicle, **Fuel Cell Vehicle
[Session overview]Business engagement is essential to tackle climate change effectively, since businesses have expertise on both low-carbon technologies and markets. This session highlights several themes associated with the role of businesses. The themes are as follows: communication on low-carbon technologies and policies between the government and business sector, channels to engage in the UN framework, lessons from industries' proactive action plans, innovation and technology dissemination to achieve substantial GHG reduction, etc.
[Session overview]Funding agencies have the ability to induce technology innovation through financial support. However, there are many different functions a funding agency can provide, and it is important to find effective methods for achieving innovation. In this session, methods for effectively achieving innovation in the energy and environment sector will be discussed by funding agencies from different countries.

| 12:45 – 15:15 | Concurrent Sessions (Part 3)[Session overview]In order to reduce CO2 emissions from the transport sector, advanced liquid biofuels using lignocellulosic biomass, non-food crops or waste need to reach the market. This session will focus on opportunities and challenges in advanced liquid biofuels. Key issues, such as trends of the market and technologies, experiences and challenges of commercialization (i.e. innovative technologies, emerging pathways, and business models), enhancing innovation processes and partnerships for business development will be discussed.
[Session overview]In order to promote further deployment of solar energy, there are still issues that need to be addressed. One such issue is the intermittency of the power output, where energy storage can be considered as one possible solution to solve this. In this session, among the many different ways of harvesting solar power, focus will be on roof-top PVs. A roadmap for further deployment of roof top PVs with batteries will be presented and discussed.
[Session overview]CCS is expected to be one of the key technologies to mitigate climate change, and in increasingly attracting attention as the Boundary Dam Project, the world’s first large-scale CCS project in the power sector, started in 2014. In this session, the current situation and future prospects of CCS projects will be reviewed, and challenges in CCS deployment (e.g. cost reduction, safety ensuring and expansion of demonstration projects) will be discussed from technological and social perspectives.
[Session overview]While the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change is expected to play a central role in the field, the regime is facing numerous challenges towards achieving its ultimate goal. In this session the following will be discussed: how to overcome those challenges, and how partnerships and collaboration among forums and regimes beyond the UNFCCC can complement the work of the UNFCCC.
