Why is cleantech significant to the Finnish economy and what are the global business opportunities? Presentation at the Cleantech Solutions research program final seminar on 28 February 2014.
1) Cleantech refers to technologies, services, and solutions that help reduce environmental impacts, save energy and resources, and improve living environments.
2) Finland has developed strong cleantech expertise due to its harsh climate and lack of fossil fuels, and cleantech now represents over 1% of Finland's GDP.
3) Key Finnish cleantech strengths include a culture of innovation, high-level technology expertise, a focus on quality and reliability, and experience solving environmental challenges.
This document discusses several trends affecting the refrigeration and air conditioning sector including increasing population, urbanization, energy demand, and cooling needs. It notes that the Montreal Protocol is on target for phasing out ozone-depleting substances but that hydrofluorocarbon emissions are rising and projected to contribute significantly to global warming. Several policy developments aim to control hydrofluorocarbons including proposed amendments to the Montreal Protocol and regional regulations. Challenges in the transition to low-global warming potential alternatives are also covered.
The Nordic countries are global leaders in climate change initiatives and circular economy efforts. They have historically focused on reducing energy emissions but are now also targeting material production emissions. Key initiatives include industrial symbiosis, green construction, and public procurement programs. Most have set carbon neutrality goals for 2040-2050. Finland was the first country to release a circular economy roadmap in 2016. Denmark, Sweden, and Norway have also released national circular economy strategies or roadmaps. Iceland focuses on renewable energy and carbon capture. The Nordic Council of Ministers promotes circular economy collaboration and projects across sectors through the Nordic Cooperation program.
The document discusses climate change policy options and mitigation strategies. It outlines international efforts like the IPCC, UNFCCC, and Kyoto Protocol to assess climate science, set emissions reduction goals, and establish reporting mechanisms. Key mitigation strategies discussed include improving energy efficiency, increasing renewable energy and carbon sinks, advocating for policies, and implementing agricultural and land use adaptations. An example of San Diego's efforts to reduce emissions through various programs is provided.
According to the Emission Gap Report, global greenhouse gas emissions in 2020 are estimated to be between 57-61 Gt CO2e and in 2030 between 63-72 Gt CO2e under a business-as-usual scenario. To limit warming to 2°C, emissions should be 44 and 42 GtCO2e in 2020 and 2030 respectively. However, full implementation of country pledges is only estimated to reduce emissions to 52-54 GtCO2e, leaving an emissions gap of 8-10 GtCO2e in 2020. Without further action, current pledges will not be met and emissions could exceed targets. Bridging the gap will require accelerating renewable energy and energy
Ireland faces several environmental challenges including water scarcity affecting 17% of its territory and increased resource extraction over the 20th century. Transitioning to a green economy is seen as key to establishing sustainable development and meeting climate targets. A green economy prioritizes renewable energy, energy efficiency, and sustainable resource management which can boost jobs and investment while reducing costs and environmental impacts. Improving resource efficiency across all sectors is necessary for Ireland to create economic growth with less pressure on the environment.

Kaisa Hernberg discusses how cities can become smarter through technology-based services. As cities face problems like pollution and traffic congestion, they cannot always solve these issues alone. Traditionally, cities own and operate infrastructure and services, but a new paradigm views the city as an open platform where citizens, startups, and communities create new services and facilities. The document provides examples of Vancouver allowing tech companies to test technologies on municipal assets, benefiting companies and the city. It also discusses mobility and heating solutions emerging from sharing economies, renewable energy, and increased efficiency. For these new approaches to work, cities need openness, removed restrictions, a commitment to collaboration, and an understanding of their core roles and assets.
