Well worth listening to, IMO energy security for UK is the most pressing issue, we are currently importing between 10 and 20% of our electricity demand, and importing gas. We have the resources and capability to produce all our own energy needs today and transition to zero carbon in future. we need politicians and civil servants to listen to Jenny Stanning, and OEUK LIMITED and urgently act.
ICYMI: Our External Relations director Jenny Stanning was on @BBCRadioScot Call Kaye this morning discussing the need for a homegrown energy transition following the Scottish party leaders debate last night. Read OEUK's industry manifesto here: https://lnkd.in/ebU_D6NB

Milken-Motsepe GreenTech Judge|Energy Executive|Founder|BRICS Energy & Green Economy| WBAF International Partner|Entrepreneurship & Innovation Chairperson South African Institute of Electrical Engineers (SAIEE)
What a privilege to serve on the judging panel for Milken Motsepe Green Tech Prize! Our continent is at the cusp of an energy revolution, and I'm thrilled to witness the transformative power of innovation in the green energy sector. Energy is the heartbeat of progress, and in Africa, it's a catalyst for growth, sustainability, and empowerment. With every pioneering idea and innovation we encounter, we're not just evaluating solutions; we're shaping the future of energy access, environmental stewardship, and economic development. The importance of clean, accessible, and renewable energy in Africa cannot be overstated. It's a key driver of economic growth, a bridge to connectivity, and a pathway to a greener, brighter future. My fellow judges and I are inspired by the dedication and vision of these brilliant minds. Our commitment to fostering and celebrating these innovations is unwavering, as we believe that through them, we can illuminate a sustainable path forward for Africa. Let's continue to champion green energy, inspire change, and work together to harness the power of innovation for a brighter, cleaner, and more prosperous Africa. #GreenEnergy #Innovation #Sustainability #Africa #EnergyFuture
And the finalists are in! Congratulations to the five teams who made it to the next round of the Milken-Motsepe Prize in Green Energy. Each team will receive funding to continue to test their innovations to bring affordable, reliable electricity to communities in Africa. Meet the finalists -- and stay tuned for more! https://bit.ly/40kncNc

In this week’s Newsletter: Equity, Diversity and Inclusion take Centre Stage at Joint UKERC-Energy Institute Event In this blog from UKERC's James Curwen discover how the joint UKERC and Energy Institute event explored inspiring #EDI initiatives that drive equality, diversity, and inclusion in the energy sector. Four Crucial Climate Targets the New UK Government Should Adopt Immediately The UK lacks a credible pathway to meet its climate targets, but a report from the Climate Evidence Unit at the University of Leeds suggests setting four specific goals: 1. Limit emissions 2. Boost carbon removal to 50 million tonnes annually 3. Reduce energy demand by 40% 4. Use less than 10% fossil fuels by 2050. These measures aim to strengthen the UK's net-zero strategy. Read more from John Barrett OBE. Video: UKERC at 20 - The Changing Research Context Part 2 This video, the second part of the changing research context panel, features a discussion on the role of energy data with Catherine Jones and the role of modelling with Neil Strachan. Catch up on the whole event here. Locational Signals for Electricity System Flexibility Alongside a National Wholesale Market Simon Gill, Callum MacIver and Robert Gross Following the completion of the second REMA (Review of Electricity Market Arrangements) consultation, this blog reviews the debate on locational signals, their importance for flexibility, and the need for a more concrete articulation of what could be improved alongside a national wholesale market. Plus, as always, a selection of #jobs, #funding and some exciting #events for your diary. 🌈⚡🍃💷 bit.ly/4cBXVU5

Looking forward to moderating a discussion on energy system modeling and energy security today at #NCEW23! Modeling is a crucial tool for investigating the tradeoffs inherent to different decarbonization strategies and helping guide clean energy policy and investments that are diversified and robust to uncertainty. We'll dig into some new results from Evolved Energy Research on energy security and U.S. energy export implications of different pathways to net zero.
SPEAKER SPOTLIGHT: Breakthrough Energy Manager of U.S. Policy and Advocacy David Paolella is moderating a panel at the #NCEW23 Policymakers Symposium! Join David and the other esteemed speakers Sept. 26-28. Register here: www.ncew2023.org

Thanks CCS Europe for inviting me as a panel speaker on 29 May 2024 on the Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) Event ‘Harnessing EU and National incentives for CCS success in Europe’ with as guest speaker Maria Velkova (Deputy Head of Unit of DG CLIMA/EC) and as moderator Katrina Williams (Senior Advisor at Rud Pedersen Public Affairs). Other panelists were Pierre Roubaud (STEP Task Force Clean Tech Stream/EC), Morten Skovgaard Olsen (Danish Energy Agency), Liv Rathe (Hydro) and Andy Spencer (Cemex). There was a lively discussion emphasizing the need for streamlining EU and national funding opportunities, an integrated approach with key stakeholders, regulatory certainty, facilitating permitting processes, including carbon removal under the EU ETS and focusing on innovative CCS technologies that are cost-effective to strengthen the competitiveness of the private sector in the EU.
