The conference left a lasting impression, highlighting the numerous challenges that lie ahead for the alternative energy sector, despite its immense potential.
Firstly, the depletion of raw materials, such as lithium, used in battery production necessitates the exploration of new and efficient technologies as replacements.
Secondly, although hydrogen power plants and batteries hold great theoretical efficiency, there is still excessive energy wastage during the transmission and storage processes. Companies are actively seeking ways to enhance energy conversion and storage efficiency, but there is still a considerable distance to cover.
Thirdly, the recycling of batteries incurs high costs, prompting the industry to develop more effective and environmentally friendly disposal methods.
Fourthly, the establishment of a centralized platform is crucial to keep the industry updated on the latest events, technologies, and ideas. Currently, such a platform does not exist, making it challenging for individuals to stay abreast of trends.
Lastly, in order to achieve truly green energy, it is imperative to utilize green sources. Merely transitioning to electric vehicles will not solve the problem if the power is derived from coal. European countries like Poland and Germany must prioritize the transformation of their energy sources, not just their transportation systems.
