The energy landscape is evolving and it’s demanding change in the way we produce and consume energy in a more sustainable way. But how can our industry leaders, policymakers and household users reap the benefits of new technologies to meet these demands? Director of UNSW Digital Grid Futures Institute, Professor John Fletcher, and CEO of UNSW Energy Institute, Dani Alexander, joins STEM journalist, Neil Martin, to discuss the challenges of redesigning entire energy systems to help meet the goal of net zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2050.
