Kicking off our “accelerating the energy transition” essay series, we sat down with Heidi Lee and Satya Tanner to talk about their essay “A 2050 retrospective” which explores what life could look like in 2050 when we reach our net zero goals. The essay was developed with Steve Blume and makes for a positive a thought provoking read. So in the words of Heidi, “read the essay and crack on with it!” https://lnkd.in/gYtF5HuA You can explore more essays and view the full interview at our website.

Australia has committed under the Paris Agreement to a 43 per cent emissions reduction target by 2030. That means we need to generate 82 per cent of electricity using renewables within a decade. It’s a big ask, but Australia is making progress.
How do we achieve 80% renewables by 2030?

Perched on its own continent, half composed of first- or second-generation migrants, Australia is hugely dependent on aviation, both economically and socially. With Australians among the world’s most frequent long-haul fliers, we have a large stake in the success or otherwise of rapidly decarbonising aviation, one of the hardest industries to abate. The challenges are many, but so there are many engineering attempts to overcome them. Already, aviation accounts for about four per cent of global warming. But that share is expected to swell rapidly as other sectors decarbonise. In fact, given projected growth in air travel, by 2050 aviation could represent up to 22 per cent of global emissions, according to Deloitte.
How does aviation decarbonise?

For Jack Curtis, Chief Commercial and Operations Officer at Neara, the lack of transparency in conversations about AI requires a set vision for how it can be implemented practically. “In the energy transition, there are so many stakeholders that play a role – whether it’s the network, generators behind the metre, retailers or prosumers – and everyone has a role in contributing data and being a recipient of data,” he said. “The challenge right now is that there’s a massive opacity between all these many stakeholders in the energy transition system, and being able to take that veil off data opacity, and provide transparency.”
Clear vision on AI needed
