Lovely to be back in the cracking Urban Sciences Bldg Newcastle University for a catch up on all things whole #energy systems with Prof Sara Walker BSc MSc PhD PGCE, sharing work underway to answer some tough exam questions! #innovation #hydrogen

Energy Systems Catapult teams up with equiwatt for a research project using their app-based energy-saving technology - 50 households from Energy Systems Catapult's Living Lab will assess and trial the app's features. Learn more here: orlo.uk/V4TR6

Great AM reading on train to Brum @coalition_zero new report 'The Future Is Local'. Strong recommendations on adopting & funding Local Area Energy Plans. Thanks Rt Hon Chris Skidmore for inviting Energy Systems Catapult team to discuss some tough #netzero questions. missionzerocoalition.com/latest-reports/

Looking forward to a visit to #Manchester next week at the Green Summit. Always leave with new ideas! Come and say hi or check out this great page covering some of the things we've supported in Manchester 👇

What a truly sad day for the #NorthEast. Wounded by this. I hope something amazing is done with the site, the gap left by the sycamore, and the timber, to create a monument in its place. 🌳 #sycamoregaptree #sycamoregap

Fun day in #Manchester, great to hear the Mayor repeatedly talk in detail abt how important GMs LAEPs have been in identifying the £ needed for #NetZero and moving to business case. Spot the #gruffalo in the background!

🌐Today we have announced the creation of regional energy planning roles across the country to improve local energy planning and speed up the transition to net zero. Find out how these roles will support infrastructure and energy networks here ⬇️ ow.ly/1QYl50Q7T8l

Significant news for role of local in new approach to regional integrated #energy planning & infrastructure investment. Excellent that critical local ambition & insights baked in. Essential to make best-cost #NetZero pathways deliverable at pace and scale, with maximum benefit.

Super varied discussions today around decarbonisation of heat, coming at governance barriers and solutions from all angles! Looking forward to the write up @CREDS_UK UK Research and Innovation Durham County Council Nottingham Trent University

Train north to Scotland today, instead of South, for a packed 2 days of meetings. Learning hat on!

Good fun today at Innovate UK Net Zero Living event. Catching up with project partners in person and hearing from inspiring projects all over the country. Can't wait to get cracking!

Good summary of local area energy planning by Andrew Clark Energy Systems Catapult Unlock Net Zero tinyurl.com/4svwvx2e

The path to #NetZero in 2050 has narrowed, but we can do it. New work from colleagues here Energy Systems Catapult explores how, what are the low regret technologies and innovation priorities to deliver within 1% of GDP. es.catapult.org.uk/news/the-path-…

One of the best pieces we've done on Local Area Energy Planning. Highly valuable info for anybody considering. We love a bit crack about this stuff so give us a shout if we can help or ur interested in innovating in this space. #energy #netzero es.catapult.org.uk/insight/local-…

Almost a third of UK Local Authorities are looking to a Local Area Energy Plan to develop a robust whole energy systems plan for Net Zero. Check out our UK map showing where 👇. A LAEP quantifies the investment needed, where, when and in what. es.catapult.org.uk/tools-and-labs…

Organising place-based action is critical to achieving scale for #NetZero. LAEP is about giving places a robust plan that gives shape to what needs to be done, and sets out the cost. These plans are starting to drive delivery but some places could be left behind...the time is now

I always think economic growth and investment should be at the heart of #netzero. Places with credible plans are using them to leverage £ in. Important in challenging times to be able to show the size of the prize...

A good article by my colleagues Andrew Clark and Chris St John Cox on the challenge of #local #energytransition #climateinvestment Energy Systems Catapult es.catapult.org.uk/insight/a-cred…

Full house at the Energy Captial Partnership Conference 2024. Updates from Cheryl Hiles, Energy Capital and West Midlands Combined Authority, on regional energy strategy and some ambitious projects and goals for the West Midlands. guynewey up soon. Energy Systems Catapult
