@Heather Polinsky, our Global President for Resilience, sharing insights at the Reuters Global Energy Transition 2024 panel ‘From Regional Leadership to Global Stewardship.’ She stressed the importance of diverse perspectives and collaborative efforts for driving the energy transition forward. The industrial sector accounts for around 25% of global emissions. We can only achieve the strategic decarbonization needed with good intent and partnering.

Responding to the urgent need to accelerate the pathway to net zero across #Europe requires partnerships and localized decarbonization pathways tailored to each country’s needs. One shared pathway is the need to integrate clean hydrogen in the energy transition to deliver secure, #affordable and #sustainable power systems. https://lnkd.in/e6RRhDua

Achieving a successful energy transition means decarbonizing existing and new infrastructure, ensuring a reliable and secure grid, and creating a hydrogen ecosystem. But we can’t do it alone. Reaching decarbonization goals by 2050 requires unprecedented collaboration across industries, sectors, and governments to develop and scale solutions that bring us closer to net-zero. The most innovative ideas come from working together, and we’re proud to be working with a number of partners to advance the energy transition.

"Net Zero almost places us on a war footing" It's Earth Day today so I though it apt to share a video that I saw at Energi Coast's event in Teesside last week. The human and financial costs of not accelerating progress to Net Zero are unimaginable. Conversely, the economic opportunities in green industries are vast. https://lnkd.in/eWcsrBnj #earthday #teesworks #offshorewind

#WeAreEnergyIndustries, and of course... ...we care about a more sustainable future.  That's why we attended the Reuters Events Energy Transition conference last week in New York to talk about strategies, investments and partnerships to drive the energy transition forward. #ABBenergyIndustries #EnergyTransition #GET24 #collaboration

Thanks to InfraRec for this (surprise) nice visual summary of our piece in Utility Dive on the big challenges ahead for ⚡️leadership.

Making the move to cleaner energy requires changes in the way we operate. Whether it involves tapping low-carbon energy sources, designing a storage system 🔋or rethinking energy infrastructure and supply chains, the shift requires careful planning and expert guidance. Arcadis' experts partner closely with organizations to design custom solutions for their energy transition needs, from enhancing building energy efficiency to modernizing the grid🔌.

Interesting viewpoint, but I do wonder whether the CIS has a potential bias against the AEMO ISP for political reasons, given the Liberal party's incredible infatuation with nuclear and the subject matter here being a 365-kilometer, 500 kV transmission line that will connect Wagga Wagga, Bannaby, and Maragle in New South Wales (NSW), with the goal of increasing the amount of renewable energy that can be delivered to consumers. ''Although there are no explicit ties between the CIS and the centre-right Liberal Party, the CIS is politically aligned with the Liberal Party, praising Liberal Party founder Robert Menzies, hosting various Liberal Party politicians and holding very critical views of the Labor Party.'' -Wikipedia. Remembering too, that the projected cost increase of the Humelink project onto bills is just $21pa, which will likely be reduced or wiped out altogether by the savings brought by the wind and solar power it will deliver to homes, providing the promised 'cheaper renewables system' (as happens in Victoria).

What does it mean to have a sustainable energy transition? It was a pleasure to dig into this topic with Michele Harradence of Enbridge and Brent Jackson of Grant Thornton at the Electricity Distributors Association’s ENERCOM 2024 conference.    We need a greener, smarter and bigger grid to support our climate goals, electrification and economic growth. At Fortis Inc. we believe innovation and collaboration are critical. Policy and regulation should support more integrated planning between energy systems, more regional interconnections and more demand side management programs.     Let's be ambitious but pragmatic. A sustainable energy transition will be successful only if we can bring everyone along.
