This week I have had one of those most intense periods of researching and then absorbing the material around different energy issues.
Everywhere you turn, you stumble across reports on one aspect or another of the energy transformation we are undertaking.
I am looking at this energy transition through the eyes of the innovator, as it offers so much in new solutions and designs that any innovator would love to be part of.
Energy is tackling one of the world’s toughest tasks, turning our existing energy system, reliant on fossil fuels into one based on renewables, is an enormously complex set of challenges in its goal of decarbonizing it.
There is such an innovation landscape of solutions that are contributing to the world achieving a more renewable-powered future. Technology innovation, suggested new business models, outline proposals for changing policies, processes, and market design all are being “sketched out.” It is overwhelming, but innovative solutions need to be continuously refreshed to reflect this consistent inflow of understanding, relating to the energy transition that is being undertaken. It is evident innovation must be way broader than just technological RD&D.
During this past week, I have been working through specific aspects of the energy transition model. Continue reading “Continuing the Energy Transition Journey”
