Watt Matters: The FORESIGHT energy transition podcast

In the past 12 months, the energy transition has had some successes: the Inflation Reduction Act in the United States and the EU’s response in the form of the Net Zero Industry Act are both designed to turbocharge green investments.But there is still the overwhelming feeling that progress is slow. With the recent wildfires in Greece and the repeated “hottest month on record” headlines, the urgency to decarbonise is ramping up. “The era of global boiling has arrived,” United Nations Secretary-General António Guterres warned in late July.In this week’s episode of Watt Matters and before we go off on our holidays, Jan, Michaela and David examine the progress made in the energy transition so far this year. They also discuss what topics need greater focus in the coming months and pick out some of their highlights from the year so far.Enjoy the show.If you have any thoughts or questions about anything that has been discussed in this week’s episode, you can reach us at our Twitter accounts:Michaela Holl: https://twitter.com/CitizenSane1Jan Rosenow: https://twitter.com/janrosenowDavid Weston: https://twitter.com/DaveW_FORESIGHTKira Taylor: https://twitter.com/KiraTaylor15@WattMattersPod: https://twitter.com/WattMattersPodFORESIGHT Climate & Energy: https://twitter.com/FORESIGHTdkListen and subscribe to Watt Matters wherever you get podcasts.
