🌏#NewEnergyWorld 🌱India’s #biogas revolution Reliance Industries Limited recently announced it will be investing INR650bn ($7.72bn) to establish 500 compressed biogas plants in Andhra Pradesh. With only 106 operational plants nationwide against a target of 5,000, this ambitious project could reshape the industry by boosting confidence, unlocking investments and revitalising wastelands with energy crops. What does this mean for #sustainableenergy in India? And how might it transform rural economies and energy supply chains? 🔗Read more: https://ow.ly/jiJE50Up0Rc

New Energy W🌎#NewEnergyWorld 💬Comment – ‘Ensuring a smart, inclusive and fair energy transition’ The #energytransition isn’t just about technology – it’s about people. As Chloe McLaren Webb of the Centre for Sustainable Energy explains, the UK’s move towards #netzero must include all consumers, especially vulnerable households. CSE’s Smart and Fair research reveals that digital skills, financial stability and energy literacy shape who benefits from smart tariffs and services. Without inclusive solutions, we risk a two-tier energy market. How can we ensure no one is left behind in this transition? 🔗Read more: https://ow.ly/sMrw50Up0NI orld

A new report published today from the National Engineering Policy Centre (NEPC) explains how building retrofit can help the UK achieve its net-zero goals whilst delivering health benefits in homes and public spaces. It shows how building retrofit programmes are essential to improving homes and buildings, meeting national net-zero goals and addressing health inequalities. Indoor air quality has a significant impact on health and well-being, with disadvantaged groups facing higher risks. The report proposes solutions to ensure that retrofitting buildings creates healthier environments, avoiding issues with mould and indoor air pollutants. The report concludes with five recommendations for policymakers to embed a systems-based approach in retrofit, including insulation and airtightness, ventilation and air cleaning, and low-carbon heating. This report was led by the Royal Academy of Engineering, in collaboration with CIBSE and IMechE. It is the final report in a major programme of work by the NEPC on infection resilient environments.

Good to see proactivity on grid modernisation in today's Clean Power Action Plan from Department for Energy Security and Net Zero. This was raised as the top concern in the Energy Institute Barometer member survey published just last week https://lnkd.in/eNxxRsCH The the scale of this challenge by 2030 is massive in infrastructure terms and will therefore also demand a HUGE skills effort between government, industry and professional bodies / training providers such as the Energy Institute. We look forward to playing our role in supporting this. Andy Brown OBE, Juliet Davenport, Tim Pick MBE, Robert Gross Nicholas Turton FEI MCIPR, Lydia Malley

AbdulHameed Raji AMEI Interim CEng holds thanks to many people for getting him to where he is today. Growing up his parents powered his home with battery storage, teaching him the importance of clean efficient energy and inspiring his engineering degree. At university, an outreach programme Alumnus spoke of energy and motivated him to pursue a career in the industry. He later met a Young Professional Network (YPN) Lead who introduced him to the EI communities and their volunteers, encouraging his membership of the EI and active involvement as a volunteer. As a member, his mentors through #EIConnect have guided his career and when attending #IEWeek 2023, speakers have inspired him. Ultimately, however, it is AbdulHameed who has propelled himself to where he is, and he still has much more to achieve. Now he’s making strikes at global sustainable development firm Arup solving energy transition barriers and overcoming key problems to help us achieve #NetZero.
