National Grid’s Post

Committed to a Sustainable Future 🌍 In an era where disposable products were once encouraged, leading to excessive consumption over the past 50 years, our planet is now facing the consequences. It is inspiring to see countries, companies, and individuals exploring clean energy solutions to preserve our beautiful Earth for future generations. In today's world, where minimizing waste in both food and energy is critical, we are honoured to witness one of our clients taking this issue so seriously. We look forward to seeing even greater leadership from National Grid in their pursuit of sustainable energy solutions. 🌍💡🔌 #CleanEnergy #Sustainability #FutureGenerations

Imagine owning a bit of a wind or solar farm - to power your home. That's exactly what Sarah Merrick (Founder and CEO, Ripple Energy) is enabling. Do yourself a favour and listen to today's episode of the Transmission podcast - feelgood vibes to kick off COP28. Always great to hear from the superheroes powering the energy transition. #RenewableEnergy #CommunityImpact #EnergyTransition https://lnkd.in/exZdnzGH

📣Check out this clip from our video podcast series with PSC CEO Alex Boyd as he discusses his view on the energy transition. Alex shares his thoughts on how renewable energy can combat climate change and improve society and the environment. He emphasizes the importance of a collaborative approach that involves all types of energy sources, embracing complexity and accelerating our efforts to envision a future powered by clean energy. 🌎🌍🌏 Watch the entire series here: https://hubs.li/Q02d7xFW0

Thanks DLA Piper Energy and Natural Resources Sector and Rubayet Choudhury for the discussion on monetising battery energy storage in an evolving market. ⬇️ After a year of record low revenues, in 2024 optimisers will need to perform across multiple markets and make the most of all revenue streams. 🔋 And isn’t just about revenue, but also the assets themselves. The oldest grid scale GB BESS went live around 2016: optimisers need to consider how to optimise an asset portfolio containing BESS of different ages, from different manufacturers, and with differing warranty constraints. GB asset owners are also looking internationally and attractive markets have a few things in common…. 1️⃣ Growing need for flexibility due to decommissioning of thermal plants and increasing penetration of renewables (Germany, GB, etc). 2️⃣ Some degree of near / or real time markets with short trading periods to capture the changing nature of the generation mix (Australia & ERCOT). 3️⃣ Revenue stacking opportunities across markets or a form of long term / guaranteed payment (Italy, Japan). #batteries #storage #netzero https://lnkd.in/ed2eSCP8

⚡ Exciting News! Episode 1 of "Unlocking The Energy Trilemma" is out now! 🎙️In this podcast Jose A. Martinez and I explore the intricate landscape of today's energy dynamics, including the global trilemma, EU transitions, and the transformative power of RE, hydrogen, energy storage, carbon capture, and digital solutions. 🌍 Get ready for expert insights that'll reshape your perspective! 🎧 Listen here: https://lnkd.in/dHKNcAtb #EnergyPodcast #SustainabilityTalks #PodcastLaunch #energytransition #gridmodernization #reneweablenergy #energystorage #digitalization #EV #solar #wind #hydrogen #cleanenergy #decarbonization #energysecurity #Inflationreductionact #carboncapture #smartgrid

How to accelerate the energy transition rapidly will be a key topic at COP28 and one we’re excited to be part of later this month. Our Renewable Energy Transaction Advice Leader James Theobalds CEng MICE joined other experts on the Windpower Monthly podcast to discuss how big challenges like the just transition, grid infrastructure, and supply-chain certainty will be crucial in discussions on wind power in Dubai. #WeAreArup #COP28 #Energy #RenewableEnergy

Batteries enable renewables and reduce carbon emissions don't they? Like many of us I assumed this was an intuitively obvious conclusion, if quite complex to calculate. It actually turns out this is sometimes not the case today, but there is reason for optimism as renewables penetration increases and particularly if wider use of carbon pricing happens. This fascinating and informative podcast from Modo Energy is well worth a listen. Great job Quentin ‘Q’ Scrimshire and Emma Konet!

Despite their position in the world of renewables energy, some actions taken by batteries actually result in carbon emissions. What if batteries could more incentivized to make carbon negative actions and clean up the grid? Strategic use of battery energy storage in areas with high marginal emissions means batteries can act as carbon avoidance offsets - but how can this be measured accurately? In todays episode of Transmission, Quentin talks to Emma Konet, Co-Founder and CTO at Tierra Climate. Over the course of the conversation, they discuss: ▶ The ‘four quadrants’ of carbon offsetting. ▶ The reality of the environmental impact of energy storage. ▶ How we can take carbon accounting a step further with locational marginal emission measuring. ▶ Battery operations and where they can add most value from a carbon perspective. ▶ The correlation between energy prices and emission sectors. ▶ And much, much more. Tell us if you know somebody who would make a great Transmission guest. We’d love to hear from you.
