The energy transition is gaining momentum. For our Watt Matters series on Energy in 2030, we’ve seen growing interest in new ways to decarbonise our world and tackle climate change.

We’ve looked at carbon removals, industrial electrification, ground source heat pumps, and other innovations vital for transitioning our energy systems and economies to net zero emissions by 2050.

Across the series, energy efficiency has kept cropping up as a critical transition component, often underestimated but essential for reducing energy demand and enhancing system flexibility.

In the series's final instalment, the Watt Matters team reflect on the key takeaways from each episode, the need for tailored approaches and clear communication, and highlights the need for ongoing ambition to reach the world’s 2030 climate and energy targets.

Watt Matters will return for a new series in the Spring of 2025, so keep an eye out. And let us know what areas we should be talking about in the contribution section below.
