The level to which oil & gas operators as well as diversified mining firms, are implementing #decarbonisation strategies 'varies widely', according to the latest Net Zero Strategies (NZS) assessments from the TPI Global Climate Transition Centre. 🔥

A new initiative to 'bridge the existing gaps in supply chain heat #decarbonisation' has been launched by AstraZeneca, Secaro and ERM. 🔥

Wow, who would have expected a Dunkelflaute in March? But here it is:

• #Germany - the “energy transformation leader with the most renewables in Europe” - 604 gCO2eq/kWh
• #Poland - old coal baseline country that is heavily investing in wind and building its first nuclear power plant - 582 gCO2eq/kWh
• #France - the hopeless case of old, legacy #nuclear that has “no future” and “contributes nothing to decarbonisation” (literal quotes) - 38 gCO2eq/kWh

It’s not a typo, the last number is really “38”, that is 16x less than the first number. And the whole point of #decarbonisation is to emit less CO2.

Ireland is 'significantly behind' where it needs to be when it comes to the #decarbonisation of residential heating, according to the Economic & Social Research Institute (ESRI). 🇮🇪

Andy Burnham made a number of statements, and they are worth noting and dissecting.
There are things to applaud but the tendency in a speech like this is to paint an overly celebratory picture, and to elide some of the real issues.
