Yeh. I know, I know. It's completely counterintuitive. How could energy efficiency possibly become the villain of the energy transition? My presentation to this week's Energy Efficiency Council summit outlines how such a counterintuitive outcome could eventuate. There's a link to my short paper in the EEC's post (below). As always, feedback welcome. #energytransition #energyefficiency
A huge thank you to everyone who filled the room and made the first Residential Energy Performance Summit such a success this week, in particular our wonderful speakers and sponsors. We've published a wrap of the day on our website, and excitingly, have also published a new paper from Ron Ben-David. A current throughout the Summit was the need to ensure energy upgrade programs have a laser like focus on the needs of households, and are alive to the potential for perverse interactions between private energy performance investments and the energy system. For participants at the Summit, Dr Ben-David's presentation was a welcome challenge to assumptions about the enthusiasm of consumers for proactive participation in energy markets, and a reminder that this transition needs to work for consumers to maintain our social license. We're pleased to publish Dr Ben-David's paper, 'How energy efficiency could become the villain of the energy transition', which can be accessed here: https://lnkd.in/guj8p4pp Thanks to our partners the Department of Climate Change, Energy, the Environment and Water, Victoria's Department of Energy, Environment and Climate Action, the Clean Energy Finance Corporation, Green Energy Trading, RACE for 2030 and Daikin Australia. Not only did these organisations help us create the space, they helped us ensure the right people were in the room, and for that we're incredibly grateful. On behalf of our Summit speakers we've made a donation to Engineers Without Borders Australia, directed to First Nations Projects, and would encourage others to check out there fantastic work.

Innovative design and impressive recognition! Sustainability has a place in every asset type including industrial.
For the first time EVER, an industrial building has earned Zero Carbon certification from the International Living Future Institute… and it’s our Eindhoven DC4 warehouse in the Netherlands! So, what does that even mean? A year ago, we built a warehouse designed to be Zero Carbon with lower-carbon building materials, but this certification requires proof. After a year in operation, the data shows that our building is energy efficient, natural gas free and powered by renewables. Our customers are increasingly demanding more sustainable building features, and we’re pleased to have set the new standard with Eindhoven DC4! Read more: https://prolo.gs/3ZpANCh

We're a proud supporting sponsor of NC Sustainable Energy Association's Clean Energy in the Mountains event next month! When: Thursday, May 16th, 6-9pm Where: Highland Brewing, Asheville What: The event features conversations about clean energy program limitations, and what’s needed to spur rapid growth for customer projects to accelerate progress towards the state’s goal of 70% carbon emissions reductions by 2030 and a moderated panel with customers and clean energy providers alike to highlight some of the challenges and opportunities for clean energy programs moving forward. Why: For some time now, North Carolina has been a national clean energy leader, at one point reaching #2 in installed solar. That growth is slowing down as we face challenges related to interconnection, transmission, and utility procurement of generation technologies. On the other side of the equation, there are a lot of opportunities ahead for customer-sited (or sited nearby) clean energy projects involving technologies like solar and storage. Unfortunately, the clean energy programs available for residential and commercial customers have been fairly limited. Extra Goodies: Music, beer and hors d’oeuvres!

☀️Empowering Germany's Solar Vision: Maximilian Müller's Journey Through countless conversations and diligent planning, our solar panels found their place atop roofs across Germany, transforming idle spaces into hubs of sustainable energy generation. Maximilian's dedication to every installation and his meticulous attention to detail resonated with us deeply, echoing our commitment to excellence. Maximilian's smile, as he gazed at the freshly installed panels, spoke volumes. The impact of our collaboration extended beyond just energy production – it was a statement of collective responsibility towards our planet. Our solar panel system has proven its mettle under the German sun, Maximilian Müller isn't just a customer; he's a partner in our journey to create lasting change. Here's to Maximilian Müller and all the passionate change-makers who believe in the power of solar energy to shape a better world. Let's continue to harness the sun's energy and infuse it into the fabric of our lives, together. 🌱🌈 #SolarJourney #SustainablePartnerships #SolarEnergyRevolution #EmpoweringChange

Inspiring Business Leader & Executive at ⚡️Helen⚡️| New Business & Innovation | Board Member at Neste
Just do it! ⚡️⚡️⚡️ Helen’s kick-off day #salamastartti for all heleners had incredible feeling of energy, ambition and fun! Green shift, flexibility and profitability, the key aspects of our new strategy were given concrete actions plans and great debate as all our new business units were presented. Our CEO Olli Sirkka and chairman of the board Atte Harjanne were opening the event, framing the challenge of the energy market and how our new strategy provides a path to be competitive, flexible - and customer centric. I had the pleasure of speaking about New business and Hydrogen aiming to ensure Helen’s future competitiveness with systematic foresight and innovations - and generating new profitable business, such as hydrogen. Anu-Elina Hintsa explained how the goal of the Customers and Services business is to build the strongest customer relationships in the market. We also heard how: 🔥 Heating and cooling business is phasing out combustion-based energy production. ⚡️ Power generation and energy portfolio management is balancing Helen’s weather-dependent portfolio and creating a competitive advantage. ⚡️ Helen Electricity Network Ltd is a crucial enabler promoting the green transition through both network investments and services. Timo Aaltonen, Harri Mattila & Markus Lehtonen. Let’s go! #energytransition #strategicgrowth #peopleandculture #peoplemakeithappen
