Thank you to Joshua Volz of U.S. Department of Energy for providing some key insights into the state of global energy transitions in a rapidly changing world
#WelcomeToScPo #ThePlaceToSpeak
Are we moving away from fossil fuels in the automobile world? Tim Gould (International Energy Agency): 'Around 1 in every 25 cars sold worldwide was electric this year.' The absolute numbers are only set to decline, as per the report.
#WelcomeToScPo #ThePlaceToSpeak
Energy transitions have become more relevant than less. Tim Gould (International Energy Agency): 'This time last year we were talking about the repercussions of the global energy crisis. The energy world is still a very fragile place.'

“We need to move in parallel, instead of moving in sequence.” – JV stresses the importance of not over relying on future technologies and planning now, but also on keeping an eye on the horizon for what awaits us
#WelcometoScPo #ThePlacetoSpeak
JV on decarbonisation: “The industry is moving in the direction of decarbonisation. We all agree that we need to go to there – the destination is known, it's just the path to get there.”
#WelcomeToScPo #ThePlaceToSpeak
'When we talk about energy transition, we must take into account where we are now in history versus where we've come from and what that trend line looks like' – JV speaks to our place in the energy transition in the largest historical sense
#WelcometoScPo #ThePlaceToSpeak
The conversation on energy transition must not die down. JV: 'The people that you disagree with most are the people that you should have the most conversations with. Because if you just stop talking, no progress can be made.'
#WelcometoScPo #ThePlaceToSpeak
Changing times require changing means in an increasingly unstable world. “We need to make sure that we are not changing one energy dependence on an insecure source to another. It’s all about diversification in that regard,” says Joshua Volz
#WelcometoScPo #ThePlacetoSpeak
#DianaLewis (University of Guelph) speaks to the young leaders of today: 'I see the creativity and fearlessness in your generation, and you need to embrace that.'
#WelcomeToScPo
JV touches upon the reduction of energy consumption - “It’s the other side of the equation. If we can reduce the amount that is required from a demand perspective, then, we have more resources on the supply side to fill markets that need those resources.”
#WelcometoScPo
On the importance of transnational collaboration, Joshua Volz: “The only way we are going to get to the goals we set is if we go there together. There is sufficient urgency that we cannot make the choice between fast or together, it has to be all of the above.”
#WelcometoScPo
Speaking about the round table on climate change and development, Milind Kandlikar addresses discrepancies: “We have a world with vast populations; and we also want to move all these people someplace else. This is not solving the problem.”
