The list of compounds that qualify as emerging pollutants is long and getting longer. The precautionary principle should guide responses to these emerging pollutants. #BeatPollution unenvironment.org/news-and-stori…

Our Bryden Centre student Oisín de Priall has been edging ever closer to carrying out gasification of sustainable biomass, with our unique downdraft set up: Analyser, scrubber and exhaust extension all installed. Next step gas production! #biomass #gasification #EnergyTransition

"What comes through with crystal clarity in this year’s World Energy Outlook is there is no single or simple solution to transforming global energy systems" Fatih Birol (old account) at the launch of #WEO19 this morning. → iea.li/32KJRmm

The past century has witnessed multiple transitions to & from different fuels & technologies. The challenge today is one of scale: global energy use is 10 times higher than in 1919 ... and still growing → iea.li/2Qh9GrU #WEO19

Over just a few years, technology advances have enabled offshore wind turbines to become MUCH bigger & more powerful. Further tech improvements could see 15-20 megawatt turbines close to the height of La tour Eiffel on the market by 2030. Read more → bit.ly/2ofQWx6

Lessons that I learnt in the one year UKERC project Women Buying Green

Do you work on #transport, #industry, #resilience or #finance in the context of #ClimateAction? We have a whole set of infographics that illustrate our 2019 Yearbook & Pathway documents and which can help you prepare for #COP25 > > bit.ly/37BoIP8 #TimeForAction

#Bioenergy can be used to help decarbonise sectors where electrification is challenging, like aviation and shipping. See IRENA's 'Global Energy Transformation' report to learn how #renewables can enable meeting the #ParisAgreement bit.ly/2KrErZS #ItsPossible

Power systems need a mechanism to ensure generation adequacy & supply security. Capacity markets serve this purpose. Redesigning capacity markets fosters flexibility, allows entry by new participants & enables variable #renewables—IRENA brief explains bit.ly/2J6oBjU

We found that investing in low carbon measures in the house is beneficial for both women and the environment m.youtube.com/watch?feature=… WomenBuyingGreen UKERC @NEA_NIreland Alberto Longo

Hydrogen is significantly less efficient than alternatives for heating buildings. Yet another study confirming this. Basic physics don’t change. @LETI_London leti.london/hydrogen
