The UK Government has a goal to achieve net zero by 2050, but in order to get there we need to radically increase renewables, and as a result, scale up the grid to support all of the new, renewable energy generation. But how do we connect these new wind farms, hydro schemes, solar farms and other low-carbon energy sources to the electricity grid?

In this episode of the Clean Energy Pod, powered by SSE, we talk to Laura Fleming, Country Managing Director for Hitachi Energy in the UK and Ireland. The company that provides the technologies that will help deliver the energy transition.

Hundreds of billions of pounds will have to be invested over the next few years to achieve net zero, but where should this be spent, and how fast can we get there?

In this episode of the Clean Energy Pod, powered by SSE, we talk to the ‪National Infrastructure Commission's Director of Policy, Margaret Read. Margaret shares with us what infrastructure and policy changes are required to deliver clean power.

Please note this podcast was recorded before the Autumn 2024 budget announcement.

What does Chancellor Rachel Reeves's October 20242 budget announcement mean for the clean energy mission? Following the first Labour budget announcement in 14 years, the #CleanEnergyPod sits down with colleagues in SSE to discuss how the budget announcement will impact the energy system. And whether we will be able to deliver a net zero energy system by the end of the decade.
