IEA: History and initial objectives:
› Autonomous organisation which works to ensure reliable, affordable and clean energy for its 29 member countries and beyond
› Founded in response to the 1973/4 oil crisis to help countries co-ordinate a collective response to major disruptions in oil supply through the release of emergency oil stocks to the markets.
› 16 Founding members (OECD Countries) › Today 29 Member States plus EU › Location of IEA (Sekretariat) is Paris
6th International Freiberg Conference, 19.-22. May 2014, Dresden/Radebeul, Germany Dr. Hubert Höwener, Forschungszentrum Jülich GmbH
IEA: Today‘s priorities
› Energy security: Promoting diversity, efficiency and flexibility within all energy sectors;
› Economic development: Ensuring the stable supply of energy to IEA member countries and promoting free markets to foster economic growth and eliminate energy poverty;
› Environmental awareness: Enhancing international knowledge of options for tackling climate change; and
› Engagement worldwide: Working closely with non-member countries, especially major producers and consumers, to find solutions to shared energy and environmental concerns.

WPFF Mandate
The WPFF shall provide advice to IEA on: › Fossil fuel technology-related policies, trends, projects,
programs, › Strategies which address priority environmental protection
and energy security interests, including adequate, flexible and reliable supply of power and electrical service of member countries; and
› Carry out activities to meet those needs through international co-operation and collaboration facilitated by IEA.

WPFF Functions (1)
1. Identification of the fossil fuel technology priority interests, including electric power technologies, common to IEA Member countries, including their integration with non fossil technologies;
2. Promotion of collaborative RD&D and technology deployment as well as electric power production, transmission, distribution and end use efficiency, by arranging studies and technology information exchange on topics of common interest, conferences, workshops, and other activities;

WPFF Functions (2)
3. Technology co-operation with non-Member countries; 4. Initiation, evaluation, and review on a periodic basis of
Implementing agreements and other international collaborative activities;
5. Co-ordination with other sectoral bodies of the IEA which conducting fossil fuel-related studies, information exchanges and meetings relevant to the goals of the WPFF; and
6. Review and evaluation of, and participation in, fossil fuel-related activities conducted by IEA bodies.

Next Generation Fossil Fuel Technologies'
› is a recurring theme in WPFF meetings. › Recent issues examined include advances in technologies
related to shale gas exploration, coal-fired power plants and processes to create crude oil from coal.
› For each area, national research programmes were measured against industrial perspectives, particularly with regard to improvements in treating environmental issues.
› The results of the discussions informed the Technology Roadmap: High-Efficiency, Low-Emissions Coal-Fired Power Generation.

Future Fuels: Flagship Activities
• Examine conditions under which “future fuels” can make a contribution to filling the supply gap left from declines in conventional oil supplies and assess environmental, technology, and policy needs.
• Review polygeneration projects worldwide to understand the advantages and disadvantages of various concepts and configurations.
• In cooperation with the Hydrogen Implementing Agreement, examine the current status and scale of large-scale hydrogen production projects using fossil fuels and quantify production volumes, supply routes and uses.
