COP28 generated plenty of headlines during the two weeks it ran. Emission pledges, new alliances, policy agreements, informal deals and various other announcements flooded the airwaves and email inboxes. Add in the emotional aspect that is now a hallmark of top level climate talks and you would be forgiven for finding the whole thing an overwhelming ordeal.
That is why more than a month on from the summit, Sam is joined by Linda Kalcher, executive director of pan-European think tank Strategic Perspectives, to look back at what happened in the United Arab Emirates. Linda shares her thoughts on the big issues that were dealt with at the summit and what it all means for policymakers as 2024 gears up to be yet another defining year for the energy transition.

Decarbonisation objectives rely heavily on offshore wind providing cheap green electricity to power homes, infrastructure and businesses. Turbines are being built out at sea at pace but more effort is needed in order to hit Europe’s lofty goals. A recent bumpy patch of uncertainty has held the sector back to an extent and now the best way forward is being charted by the industry. Jakob Forman, lead regulatory advisor at Ørsted joins the show to share the findings of a new study aimed at proposing solutions to some of the sector’s main challenges.

They soak up a lot of energy and spew out a lot of emissions. Improving the existing stock and making sure new builds are as green as possible is crucial to our global decarbonisation journey. Across the continent of Africa, this challenge is playing out. New builds are the focus and policies are being developed constantly to weave sustainability factors into building codes and practices. Mugure Njendu, Africa Programs Lead at the Global Buildings Performance network, joins the Policy Dispatch to explain why the continent has a massive opportunity to build better and not make the same mistakes European countries have made in the past.

The energy transition is becoming more and more complex, new technologies are coming online, old ways of sourcing power are becoming obsolete and geopolitics are tearing up the rulebook. That is why the ability to plan ahead, work through all the options, find the opportunities in our shift toward a greener world and pick as many winners as possible is a skill worth its weight in gold. Jeremy Bentham headed the scenario team at Shell for well over a decade and on this edition of the show he shares his experience, what it taught him about the energy transition and how scenario planning is evolving in our changing world.

Artificial intelligence could make or break the energy transition. The massive data centres that provide AI’s computational power will need to increase in number, which will result in a spike in energy demand. But the benefits that AI promises to bring to the energy transition could result in a net-positive for both the power system and the climate, if the right policies and framework are put in place. Peter Weckesser, chief digital officer at Schneider Electric, joins the show to explain how artificial intelligence should be harnessed, how we should manage the risks linked to its usage and what the energy transition stands to gain.

Heating our homes and cooling our casas is a vital part of everyday life that is often taken for granted. We expect heat and, increasingly, demand cooling. But the energy needs and carbon footprint of heating and cooling are huge. Both are expected to grow if strong policies are not put in place to help electrify and increase the share of renewable power. It is a problem that has been around for a while, so what is being done to address it? And will 2025 be a crucial year to turn talk into actual action?

Climate breakdown will hit African communities harder than those on other continents, making the need for effective climate finance in particular absolutely vital. How it is spent is crucial though.

More than half of the world’s total supply of renewable energy is provided by bioenergy, a fact often forgotten in energy transition debates. Its contribution to sectors like heating is, in particular, an integral part of the energy mix. How does the sector manage the fact that it flies under the radar so much?

More than 5 gigawatts of capacity is installed and there are plans in some countries to add more. The negative impact on the environment, climate and human health is well-documented: the emissions are often worse than fossil fuel combustion and the pollutants released by burning garbage can pose a significant health risk. So why is this practice still allowed? What rules are in place to regulate the sector? How is the industry evolving? And what does the future hold for waste incineration?

Emission reductions are the primary way to address climate change. But if the international community is not able to slash greenhouse gases quickly enough or if leftover emissions persist, then the climate may still need a helping hand. That is where geoengineering may eventually come into play. Potential solutions include mass tree planting, capturing carbon, making clouds and the oceans more reflective, covering deserts in white plastic and other unconventional technologies. The scope for temperature reduction is huge but so is the risk of unleashing unpredictable side-effects. Researchers have to proceed with caution in order not to fail in their well-intentioned missions or even make the climate crisis worse. Lisa J. Graumlich, president of the American Geophysical Union, joins the show to present a new ethical framework the scientific community has put together and explain why its principles are oh so important moving forward.

Look out of a plane window when you are flying over the sea or peer at the horizon from a ferry these days and chances are good that you will see giant wind turbine blades looming out of the deep. Offshore wind is generating more and more of our clean electricity, as governments around the world craft ever-increasingly ambitious renewable strategies. In Europe alone, countries want to roll out 111 gigawatts of the technology by 2030. But someone has to build these behemoths. The newest generation of turbines are hundreds of metres tall and hundreds of tonnes in weight. The infrastructure challenge is massive. New technologies like floating wind, larger capacity turbines and hybrid projects that include solar and hydrogen generation all mean that the challenge is only going to get more complicated.
