EDF Renewables India’s Post

I spoke on the "Energy Transition Measures and Other Amendments Bill" during which I emphasized the importance of recognising that the energy transition is not just about reducing emissions but is also central to ensuring long-term sustainability. By shifting towards cleaner energy sources, we can safeguard our environmental resources for future generations while enhancing energy resilience. This transition aligns with our broader sustainability goals by reducing the harmful impacts of fossil fuels, improving air quality, and fostering the development of green technologies that will sustain both economic growth and ecological balance. In this way, energy security and environmental sustainability are inextricably linked, making it critical for us to act decisively in accelerating this transition. https://lnkd.in/gRTvmQe8 https://lnkd.in/guXWahFt

Denmark's energy policy needs go get back on track. #energyefficiency is overlooked in the energy policy toolbox – but without it, Denmark stands little chance of reaching its 2030 climate goals. According to an analysis from the Danish Council on Climate Change from 2023, Denmark is falling behind the rest of the EU when it comes to energy efficiency. In fact, we are only number 16 out of 27, which corresponds poorly with our self-image as a pioneering country on the green agenda. So, let’s raise the bar. For example, 70 percent of the municipal buildings in Denmark still have energy labels D or lower – that is far from impressive. Therefore, removing economic barriers and supporting public investments in #digitaltechnologies enabling energy efficiency are crucial first steps towards a healthy energy policy. Moreover, we must make it easier to build and operate sustainable #datacenters by removing bureaucratic barriers and promoting public-private partnerships even more. You can read about what other measures I believe should be included in the Danish #energypolicy to turn goals into reality in my byline in Altinget.dk today. I’m happy to discuss and elaborate on them. SYNERGI #sustainablebuilding #sustainableindustry https://lnkd.in/dGHx48un

Great news for a sustainable future! Following a series of Clean Transition Dialogues, the EU is committed to working with key industries even closer to making the #GreenDeal a reality. Together, they will be focusing more intensely on: Making clean energy affordable for everyone ☀️ Building modern energy infrastructure ️ Securing funding for a smooth green transition Read more ➡️ https://lnkd.in/dn2YDDMt #CleanEnergy #ClimateAction #EU

The Government has recently unveiled new updates pertaining to phase 4 of the public sector decarbonisation scheme. A significant change involves the funding allocation method: public sector businesses will now be granted funds based on their potential for reducing carbon emissions, departing from the previous approach of distributing funds on a first-come, first-served basis.

Thomas Träger, excellent opinion piece in Altinget with clear recommendations. Denmark needs to accelerate investments into Energy Efficiency to reduce emissions by 70% and in 6 years achieve the same improvements which they have achieved in 30 years. In the Nordic Baltic zone the conclusion is the same – high energy intensity per capita, need for energy efficiency goals and to fortify domestic energy security by increasing electrification, divesting from fossils and gas and build economies in the new energy landscape; Wind, Hydrogen, Storage, Carbon Capture.

How can we make the energy transition more sustainable, practical, secure and profitable? Tune into our next episode of Energized, in partnership with GZERO Media to hear from Enbridge CEO Gregory Ebel, JJ Ramberg and Hon. Lisa Raitt to find out how.

The UK's Green Renewal: A Positive Step Forward for UK Sustainability! The past few weeks have seen significant developments in the UK government's sustainability agenda. Ed Miliband - architect of the UK #ClimateChangeAct 2008 - returns as Secretary of State for the Department for Energy Security and Net Zero which signals a renewed focus on achieving clean energy by 2030 and a renewed desire for UK #sustainability leadership. Here are some key initiatives announced over the past fortnight: • #MissionControl: Led by Chris Stark (previously CEO of the Climate Change Committee, established under the Climate Change Act 2008), this initiative aims to turbocharge the government’s mission to provide Britain with cheaper and clean power by 2030. • #OnshoreWind & #Solar Initiatives: The lifting of the onshore wind ban, coupled with the launch of an Onshore Wind Industry Taskforce and a revamped Solar Taskforce, along with expected roadmaps, signifies a multi-pronged approach to renewable energy. • #GreatBritishEnergy Bill: This bill proposes a publicly owned energy company to invest in renewable projects, particularly offshore wind, promoting energy security, lower bills, and climate action. • #Planning and #Infrastructure Bill: This bill expedites the development of sustainable infrastructure, benefiting both the environment and the economy. • #NationalWealthFund Bill: This bill seeks to establish a National Wealth Fund that would direct investments towards clean energy, fostering innovation and economic growth. • #SustainableAviationFuel Bill: This bill supports the development of cleaner aviation fuels for a more sustainable aviation industry. • #WaterBill: This bill empowers regulators and incentivises water companies to prioritise environmental protection in water management. • Fossil Fuel Review: The government's review and possible reversal of recently issued coal and oil licenses demonstrates its commitment to a clean energy future. These advancements are positive steps towards a more sustainable future. Let's keep the momentum going and ensure these initiatives translate into tangible results in the UK and leadership we can export!  #UKsustainability #CleanEnergy #GreenJobs Who else is excited about the UK's renewed focus on sustainability?
