What's the best way to decarbonise industry and the wider economy?

When: Wednesday, 6 April 2022, 11:30 - 12:45
Where: Auditorium 2 - Level 4

Session description

As we move towards a decarbonised industry and economy, we will need unprecedented volumes of new infrastructure and renewable generation, including electricity grids, storage, electrolysers and pipelines.
We will discuss what would be the optimal infrastructure mix and the new level of sector coupling governance needed to make that possible.

What can we electrify directly and how?
