I was recently in Manchester, talking to a range of EIC members about policy, their needs, and the opportunities and risks in the energy industry. And yes, we touched on the budget.
Supply chain concerns mount as shifting policies, taxes and project delays threaten the UK’s energy future, says EIC Head of External Affairs Rebecca Groundwater
Flotation Energy was founded in 2018. What have been its main milestones?
Jon Dobson talks to Energy Focus about Flotation Energy’s journey, tackling offshore wind challenges, and ensuring bankability for floating projects.
Can you tell us a little about Costain?
Energy Sector Director Laura Hughes takes Energy Focus behind the scenes at Costain
The UK’s nuclear sector is on the verge of a major transformation, with 11 proposed projects expected to require a CAPEX of US$140bn.
The UK’s nuclear sector faces a pivotal moment, with US$140bn in proposed projects, but it must address project delays, supply chain challenges and small modular reactors for future growth, says Mahmoud Habboush at EIC
The North Sea has been a crucial asset to the UK for decades. It provides oil and gas to meet our own energy needs, and also exports, contributing significantly to our economy.
An independent taskforce in the North Sea is critical to navigating the energy transition, says Shevaun Haviland, Director General of the British Chambers of Commerce.
On 21 March, green smoke rose from the blast furnace at Tata Steel in IJmuiden, the Netherlands, as steelworkers across Europe mobilised to demand a just transition to green steel.
European steelworkers demand action for a just transition to green steel. A coordinated industrial deal is crucial to secure jobs, decarbonise steel and ensure Europe’s strategic autonomy, says Judith Kirton-Darling, General Secretary of IndustriALL Europe.
Like many others worldwide, the UK’s power sector is grappling with the complexities of integrating a surge of new cleantech power sources, including wind and solar, into the national grid.
The UK power sector faces urgent challenges in integrating renewable energy into the grid. With more than 50GW of new capacity targeted by 2030, major grid upgrades and energy storage investments are essential, says Mahmoud Habboush at EIC.
The crucial role of oil and gas in the UK’s energy transition and supply chain cannot be overstated.
Oil and gas are pivotal to the UK’s energy transition, but current policies limit their potential to support net-zero goals. Balancing support for conventional and emerging technologies is essential for a successful transition, says Mahmoud Habboush at EIC
EIC has represented energy companies’ interests for more than 80 years.
Despite the evolution of the UK energy sector, the supply chain remains unheard and under-supported, with critical gaps in policy and investment. This is causing significant disruption and missed opportunities for the sector as it transitions to a sustainable and integrated energy future – a reality that EIC’s new manifesto seeks to address, writes Tom Wadlow
The success of the renewable energy sector relies on stable and consistent government policies, a principle that holds for all sectors.
Stable government support and industry collaboration are crucial to driving innovation and growth in renewable energy, says Mahmoud Habboush at EIC.
