Lucy Yu explains how locally smart energy systems can create global inefficiencies and how AI could fix it. #AI #SmartGrid #EnergySystems #CleanEnergy
Lucy Yu explains why a new social contract is emerging for AI energy use, where data centres must support the grid and share costs. #AI #EnergyPolicy #CleanEnergy #DataCentres
Lucy Yu explains how flexible data centres could support the grid by shifting demand and operating without a constant power supply. #AI #DataCentres #CleanEnergy #SmartGrid
Lucy Yu explains how AI data centres could support the grid by using excess renewables and reducing system constraints. #AI #CleanEnergy #EnergyTransition #SmartGrid

Sam Alvis of IPPR says the state has always shaped the energy system through regulation, policy, and industrial strategy. #EnergyPolicy #EnergyPolitics #IndustrialStrategy #EnergyTransition
Sam Alvis of IPPR says climate policy is often expected to deliver everything at once in ways no other policy area is. #ClimatePolicy #EnergyTransition #EnergyPolitics #NetZero
Energy markets are never truly free markets. As Sam Alvis of IPPR explains, governments always step in when energy security is on the line. #EnergyPolitics #EnergySecurity #EnergyPolicy #EnergyTransition
Sam Alvis of IPPR says climate impacts are arriving faster than expected, and policy must focus on both adaptation and emissions cuts. #ClimateChange #ClimatePolicy #EnergyTransition #NetZero
Sam Alvis of IPPR says support for net zero remains strong among the public despite political narratives suggesting otherwise.

Andrew Sissons of Nesta says heating is the biggest bottleneck in the UK energy transition and keeps the country dependent on imported gas.
#HeatPumps #EnergyTransition #Electrification #UKEnergy
Andrew Sissons of Nesta explains why political fears about shifting costs between gas and electricity are slowing electrification in the UK.
