🌊💡 Exciting News in Offshore Technology! 💡🌊 I'm thrilled to share groundbreaking developments in offshore technology with the announcement of Shearwater's initiative in the UK's carbon capture and storage (CCS) efforts. As the world races to combat climate change, initiatives like these underscore the critical role that offshore technology plays in driving sustainable solutions. Shearwater's commitment to supporting the UK's CCS ambitions marks a significant milestone in the transition to a low-carbon future. By leveraging advanced offshore technology and expertise, Shearwater is poised to make substantial contributions to reducing carbon emissions and mitigating the impacts of climate change. As someone deeply passionate about environmental sustainability, I commend Shearwater for their leadership and dedication to addressing one of the most pressing challenges of our time. The deployment of CCS technologies not only helps to decarbonize industries but also opens up new opportunities for innovation and collaboration in the offshore sector. At a time when the need for bold climate action has never been more urgent, initiatives like Shearwater's remind us of the power of technology to drive positive change. Let's continue to support and invest in innovative solutions that pave the way towards a cleaner, greener future for generations to come.

Today, Aker Carbon Capture's Chief Executive Officer Egil Andre Fagerland and Chief Commercial Officer Jon Christopher Knudsen had the pleasure of meeting with Lord Callanan – UK Minister for Energy Efficiency and Green Finance who visited Oslo to attend the OSLO ENERGY FORUM. Key topics included UK CCS policy, UK and EU ETS developments as well as how companies like Aker Carbon Capture which is active in the UK CCS industry can support developments and ambitions of the UK Government. "The UK and Norway have a long history of close political cooperation as well as industrial partnerships and CCS is no exception", said Chief Commercial Officer, Jon Christopher Knudsen after the meeting. "Aker Carbon Capture was the first company to capture CO2 in the UK and remains committed to supporting the development of the CCS industry going forward", he continued. The UK is entering an important year for its CCS deployment plans, and Aker Carbon Capture is determined to work with customers, partners, and government representatives to ensure the UK maintains a leading position in deploying the technology and reaching its climate targets. #CarbonCapture #CCUS #RoadToNetZero

The North Sea's role in Europe's clean energy transition is profound, with its potential to supply significant offshore wind energy for electricity and hydrogen production alongside interconnecting regional countries. Key takeaways from the Enlit World article include: Strategic Importance The North Sea is envisioned as Europe's green energy hub, crucial in the climate fight. Collaborative Efforts Success depends on joint approaches among countries, regulators, and developers. Challenges and Opportunities While the North Sea's energy sector has historically focused on oil and gas, offshore wind is gaining prominence. Ambitious targets are set, but challenges like auction design and supply chain management need addressing. This discussion underscores the region's huge potential in advancing the energy transition, highlighting the need for strategic planning, collaboration, and addressing emerging challenges. Siemens Energy's Yara Chakhtoura emphasises the need for joint approaches among countries and players for an integrated, decarbonised energy system.

Just following the numbers again. Decarbonizing the built environment is not inevitable. It will take actions, done by people and machines, at an unprecedented rate to achieve our net zero goals. At OVR-VU, Powered by Rathco, we're making these goals possible within our life-times by changing the way we serve our customers. Download a sample Pre-Feasibility report at www.ovrvu.com to see how you can make informed decisions about what zero-carbon energy system is right for your development.

The United Nations Environment Programme Finance Initiative (UNEP FI)’s International Methane Emissions Observatory (IMEO) underscores the significance of methane emissions reduction in the energy sector, particularly within the Oil and Gas Methane Partnership 2.0 (OGMP 2.0). While the report primarily focuses on methane mitigation, the broader context of energy transition includes a growing interest in clean energy sources such as hydrogen. The data-driven approach of IMEO, as demonstrated by OGMP 2.0, aligns with the broader sustainability goals, laying the groundwork for a cleaner energy future. As the energy landscape evolves, initiatives like IMEO could potentially expand their scope to encompass emerging technologies like hydrogen production and utilization, contributing to a comprehensive strategy for reducing greenhouse gas emissions across various sectors and advancing the global transition to cleaner energy alternatives.

The green energy transition, while crucial for mitigating climate change, has several blind spots that need addressing. These include the environmental and social impacts of mining for critical minerals like lithium, cobalt, and rare earth elements essential for renewable energy technologies. The disposal and recycling of solar panels, wind turbine blades, and batteries pose significant waste management challenges. Additionally, the transition often overlooks the energy access disparities in developing regions, where renewable infrastructure is less established. Furthermore, the current energy grid and storage systems require substantial upgrades to handle intermittent renewable energy sources, ensuring a reliable and stable energy supply. Addressing these blind spots is essential for a truly sustainable and equitable green energy future. 🌍 https://lnkd.in/gMzWvS6x

“Driving the scale-up of CCS’’ - tune into this webinar to harvest some profound knowledge from three great gentlemen! And check out our other postings on recent carbon capture awards for large-scale projects! The growth is evident! #carboncapture

Really good day yesterday at All-Energy Exhibition and Conference and a massive boost to my step-count for the Anderson Strathern step-challenge! Some of the themes I picked up on from my discussions: 1. People are generally positive right now, and this was reflected in the number of attendees, but development still has its challenges. 2. Developers are starting to think about the resurrection of on-shore wind in England should Labour get in. The skills and resource gap could widen further but lots of good people with wind experience in Scotland! 3. We are still waiting to see if "zombie projects" can be forced out of the queue for grid, speeding up connections for viable projects. 4. Repowering is moving up the agenda for those with an existing portfolio and owners are trying to assess if they should sweat the existing asset or repower now. 5. The supply chain is still being squeezed contractually and they are looking for a sustainable approach to pricing. 6. There is a need for more experienced EPC contractors and procuring components and parts in the global market remains challenging. 7. Changes to policy and market conditions will draw investment and finance away from the UK market. The USA continues to grow as a market and Italy is routinely mentioned. Big policy packages can supercharge a regional market. 7. Developers with no prior experience in hydrogen are trying to get their head around the market opportunity. Properly pricing that opportunity is difficult. It will be interesting to see the impact of the first hydrogen contracts-for-difference. A UK-wide strategy on the demand and supply of hydrogen would be a huge boost (special mention for THE SCOTTISH HYDROGEN AND FUEL CELL ASSOCIATION LIMITED now being re-branded as Hydrogen Scotland.)
