Collaborating for a climate action

Relocating from London to live and work in Dubai last summer, I left one heatwave for another.

The hard truth about transition is that you need access to capital to do it. Closing the capital gap demands deeper collaboration at all levels, says Zoë Knight at HSBC

Unlocking the potential of floating offshore wind

Located approximately 13km off the coast of Aberdeen, a significant achievement for the UK offshore wind industry stands out.

The floating offshore wind industry is an exciting global opportunity that will play a key role in the energy transition. However, there are barriers to full commercialisation that must be addressed and overcome, says EIC Senior Analyst Pietro Ferreira

Nuclear is quietly making a big return

In 2022, Europe woke up to the folly of depending on Russian gas. Supply security became the priority for most governments, followed by concern over prices.

Energy security concern is building support for nuclear, but success will hinge on governments and industry, says Tim Yeo, Chairman of the New Nuclear Watch Institute

Overhauling Europe's energy system

Europe’s energy markets are stressed as never before. Prices are high and volatile, and EU citizens are calling for huge interventions.
