In my latest blog, I describe how DSG approaches the challenges of #solargeoengineering with transparency, inclusivity, and a commitment to unbiased dialogue. There's no doubt that navigating these complexities can be daunting, but we're determined to create a platform for balanced, fact-based conversations that empower communities and ensure all voices are heard.

In this essential episode, I interview Alex Gee to discuss the journey towards achieving Net Zero emissions. We explore whether we have the right data to begin this journey and how data-driven strategies can lead to a sustainable future. We struck an interesting vein around whether energy leaders could become a statutory role. Truth about Local Government is committed to providing quality content, from those passionate about adding value to the local government sector. https://lnkd.in/eS8D7f66

⚡How does our states’ utility structure affect decarbonization? ⚡How will the United States' electrical infrastructure need to change to support a net-zero future? Join Technical Lead Ilana Cember, PE, CEM, in their series, Everything you wanted to know about Electricity: Part I of IV https://lnkd.in/g3NS5hSY #zerocarbon #emissionsreduction #esgstrategy #leadership #greenbuilding #sustainability #greeninfrastructure #decarbonization

Resilience is what we need to be focused on. Not rebates. Not heat pumps. Consumers CAN understand the value of resilience if you give them the opportunity and agency to make long term decisions for their families. The leaders of the industry need to stand against reductive narrative and inadequate business models, collaborate on new messaging, then saturate the airwaves with it. #resilience #betterhvac #hvac #incentives #homeowners #servicebusiness #policy

Addressing the challenges of preserving the current energy system integrity as we transition to a decarbonised future won’t be straightforward and will require a co-ordinated and integrated approach #GIEnergyShot GIE

Like many of you, I need to keep up with the latest trends within the industry. This means sifting through countless articles, reports, and papers. As a technologist, I strive for a thorough technical understanding across various subjects. However, given the breadth of climate mitigation measures, becoming an expert in every aspect is infeasible. This is where review papers become invaluable, offering comprehensive insights and summarizing key developments in an accessible format. A big part of my work here at Novatech AS is building the best mitigation measures library in Novatech NESSi®, a strategic emission reduction software specially designed for the energy-intensive industry. During my research, I came across a very relevant review paper titled “Energy Storage Solutions for Offshore Applications” (https://lnkd.in/dDfAvzp9) by Arellano-Prieto et al. What I appreciate about these types of articles is they not only provide a quick refresher on the technical aspects of the most talked-about measures but also offer insights into upcoming low TRL technologies. Some of these technologies could play a pivotal role in achieving net-zero targets by 2050. Unfortunately, there are a lot of excellent articles and papers out there that don’t get read, especially by people new to the specific fields. When it comes to climate mitigation, do you have any favorite review articles? Please share them in the comments below :)

June is the month of the #CommoditiesSoiree, now in its 11th edition. Ping me if you have not received the invite 👍 This year's theme? The path to net zero: impacts and long term forecasts on the energy complex

How does our states’ utility structure affect decarbonization?  How will the United States' electrical infrastructure need to change to support a net-zero future? Understanding the basics of electricity generation, distribution, purchasing, greenhouse gas emissions, and the utility grids is key to understanding how we change any of those to keep our global commitment and meet the Paris Climate Agreement. We are pleased to share Brightworks Sustainability's '(Almost) Everything You Wanted to Know About Electricity But Are Embarrassed to Ask' from Ilana Cember, PE, CEM, LEED AP, PE, CEM, Operational Carbon Lead at Brightworks https://lnkd.in/gufJYG4a

We've made early progress towards decarbonization, but there are still major hurdles to overcome in order to reducing emissions and ensuring an equitable energy transition. Our recent report outlines key technology, societal, and policy needs for successful decarbonization and necessary actions for achieving net-zero emissions.

This is a big win - Here's to advancing tech to meet energy goals and to reduce climate impact! It’s a ten-year $550 million contract from the U.S. Department of Energy’s Advanced Research Projects Agency-Energy (ARPA-E) to support the advancement of high-potential, high-impact, early-stage technologies that generate, store, and use energy in entirely new ways to reduce U.S. emissions, improve energy efficiency, and increase the resiliency and reliability of the U.S. power grid. “With this work, we’re not looking for merely incremental improvements to our energy innovation ecosystem—we’re seeking game-changing, disruptive solutions that radically improve U.S. economic prosperity, national security, and environmental wellbeing.” #BoozAllen #climate #Nationalsecurity #environment #environmentalwellbeing #energy #USenergy #reduceemissions #technology #emergingtechnology
