Texas is proving what happens when vision meets momentum. ⚡ Wind, solar, and storage are booming thanks to smart planning and bold investment. #EnergyRevolution #EnergyPodcast #TexasEnergy #CleanEnergy #EnergyTransition
In the next decade, Texas and beyond will see smarter, faster, more reliable power grids. ⚡ From digital tech to local generation, the grid’s getting an upgrade. #EnergyRevolution #EnergyPodcast #SmartGrid #CleanEnergy #EnergyTransition
The energy transition isn’t just tech, it’s people. ⚙️ We need skilled builders, engineers, and technicians to power the clean future. Hear more on the Energy Revolution Podcast. #EnergyRevolution #CleanEnergy #GreenJobs #EnergyTransition
There’s real optimism in energy right now. ⚡ From the UK unlocking Scotland’s wind to the US improving grid reliability, innovation keeps pushing us forward. One breakthrough at a time. #EnergyRevolution #EnergyPodcast #CleanEnergy #NetZero #EnergyTransition
The UK built renewables before the grid, and now a lot of wind power is stuck up north. 🌬️ Texas planned ahead with CREZ lines. ⚡ Smart grid planning can make or break the clean energy transition. #EnergyRevolution #EnergyPodcast #CleanEnergy #NetZero #EnergyTransition
Clean power + heat pumps ⚡ A duo that cuts emissions, balances the grid & speeds the #EnergyTransition. 🎙️ #EnergyRevolution #HeatPumps #CleanEnergy #NetZero #RenewableEnergy
UK heat pump policy has been stop-start ⚡ Incentives fade, supply chains stall - steady policy is key for net zero. 🎙️ #EnergyRevolution #HeatPumps #CleanEnergy #NetZero #EnergyPolicy
Heat pumps run 4–5x more efficiently than gas boilers 💡 while gas boilers are the top source of London air pollution 🎙️ #EnergyRevolution #HeatPumps #CleanEnergy #NetZero #EnergyEfficiency
EVs alone won’t deliver net zero 🚇🚍 Public transit moves people cleaner & smarter - true #CleanTransport starts here. 🎙️ #EnergyRevolution #PublicTransit #NetZero #SustainableMobility
Heathrow expansion ✈️ Big private profits, small economic gain, and a huge climate cost. 🎙️ #EnergyRevolution #AirportExpansion #ClimateAction #NetZero
UK aviation policy is wishful thinking, banking on carbon capture, tech not proven at scale, to cut 50% of 2050 emissions ✈️⚠️ 🎙️ #EnergyRevolution #CarbonCapture #NetZero #ClimateAction
Heat networks 🔥 Now just 3% of UK demand, but poised to scale as a low-carbon, cost-effective heating solution. 🎙️ #EnergyRevolution #HeatNetworks #CleanEnergy #NetZero #EnergyTransition
Heat storage 🔥⚡ An overlooked game-changer for flexibility & resilience on the road to net zero. 🎙️ #EnergyRevolution #HeatStorage #CleanEnergy #EnergyInnovation #NetZero #EnergyTransition
More coal plants closed under Trump than Obama ⚡ Why? Clean energy economics are winning—jobs, skills & innovation drive the #EnergyTransition. 🎙️ #EnergyRevolution #CleanEnergy #NetZero
Energy is one system, not silos ⚡ Heating, transport & power are merging through electrification—driving the #EnergyTransition. 🎙️ #EnergyRevolution #CleanEnergy #NetZero #EnergySystems
A demand-led #EnergyTransition means putting people first 🏠🏭🌍 Cost-effective decarbonization depends on households, industry & place. 🎙️ #EnergyRevolution #CleanEnergy #NetZero #EnergyPolicy
The UK insures £200B of Russian oil yearly 🚢 A hidden choke point in global energy, and a tool that could reshape geopolitics. 🎙️ #EnergyRevolution #EnergySecurity #OilAndGas #EnergyGeopolitics
Russia’s oil didn’t vanish—it shifted 🌍 Now 70% flows to China, India & Turkey, reshaping global trade. 🎙️ #EnergyRevolution #EnergySecurity #OilAndGas #EnergyGeopolitics #FossilFuels
New episode out this morning on Trump vs Orsted, the world's largest offshore wind company.
Has Trump doomed the world's largest offshore wind company?

New podcast episode explains how Orsted made a series of poor decisions that left them majorly exposed to the febrile politics of the US and MAGA.

The UK's "free" electricity market? Not quite.
Our host breaks down the reality: capacity markets, balancing mechanisms, contracts for difference - it's all government design underneath.
Are we making energy more expensive than it needs to be?
#EnergyPolicy #UKEnergy
Your energy bill is quietly becoming a tax by another name.

Our host and former government advisor explains why funding hydrogen and carbon capture through bills instead of budgets might be the wrong approach.

#EnergyPolicy #NetZero
The era of electricity is here!

We're in a new race towards electrification, and countries that can get ahead on renewables and offshore wind will have the advantage.
