Where are we with the energy transition? With TransitionZero

Felicia Jackson and Giulia Bottaro Season 4 Episode 8

The energy transition is firmly part of the mainstream discourse: politicians and companies often talk about it but, at times, it can feel like an abstract concept.

Maybe our lives don't look much different at the moment – sure, there are more electric vehicles on the road and solar panels on roofs – but there is a huge amount of work going on in policy and industry to decarbonise our energy systems. While these new strategies require a whole set of changes on the supply and demand side, they bring out enormous opportunities.

In our latest episode, Giulia speaks to Isabella Suarez, Southeast Asia lead at TransitionZero, to understand where we are with the energy transition. The conversation covers the definition of the energy transition, the technological advancements we can count on and the challenges we are facing.

We touch upon the importance of energy efficiency, the world’s dependency on fossil fuels, and how professionals can engage in the energy transition. It’s a massive endeavour that requires different types of action depending on the country where it’s taking place, but it’s one of the most crucial steps we can take to mitigate climate change.
