Awesome evening! Shout out to Carbon Brief Simon Evans Leo Hickman and the whole gang for a brill quiz, and kudos to Mike Hemsley and Sam Butler-Sloss for helping ace an awesome picture round

As discussions get underway at #COP29 on the new climate finance goal (NCQG) a reminder that we did a recent explainer on the numbers and key points of tension within this debate: energy-transitions.org/publications/n…

It really is this simple

تفاوت كبير بتقديرات الحاجات التمويلية لتحول #الطاقة.. فمثلا لجنة تحولات الطاقة #ETC تقول لـ #مستقبل_الطاقة إنه يجب رفع المستهدف لـ3.5 تريليون دولار على أن يأتي معظمه من القطاع الخاص #كارينا_كامل FT's Energy Transition Summit ناصر الطيبي * Naser El Tibi ◀️لمتابعة الحلقة | youtu.be/emzFMOM-ZuY

The Energy Transitions Commission latest report on Achieving #ZeroCarbonBuildings explores the opportunity to build low-carbon and efficient new buildings . Here is a thread summarising our key findings on reducing whole-life carbon of new buildings. You can download the report here:

In an exclusive interview, ETC Deputy Director Mike Hemsley & Reagan Des Vignes (Executive Producer & Host of “Just 2 Degrees”) at TRT World explore pathways to decarbonising buildings in cities around the world. 📚Read the report: energy-transitions.org/publications/a…

Don't miss out on Mike Hemsley's (Deputy Director, ETC) conversation with TRT World on using “passive cooling” techniques for better building and city design incl. painting roofs white & shading via trees or external window shades. 📺Watch the full video: youtube.com/watch?v=5ZVpYq…

I for one agree that we should have more genuine debate about #NetZero in the UK and globally. But the starting point should be a robust factbase that reflects the progress already made in the transition, and avoids feeding misconceptions.

This week ETC Deputy Director Mike Hemsley spoke on a panel at Financial Times Live Climate & Impact Summit discussing how non-intermittent solutions complement variable renewable energy to ensure a stable power grid.
