    The Norwegian Paradox: Climate Leadership in an Oil Nation | Anne Karin Sæther

    In this episode. Our host, Stuart Broadley, is joined by Anne Karin Sæther, author, journalist and senior adviser at the Norwegian Climate Foundation, for a thought-provoking conversation on one of the energy industry's greatest contradictions: how Norway became both a global climate leader and one of the world's most successful oil and gas nations. Drawing on the themes of her book With the Best of Intentions, Anne Karin explores the political decisions, cultural values and long-term strategies that shaped Norway's energy model. The discussion examines the country's sovereign wealth fund, its approach to climate policy, and why oil and gas have remained central to Norway's economy despite ambitious environmental goals. The conversation also looks at the role of public trust, political communication, energy security, offshore wind, and the changing debate around the energy transition. Anne Karin shares her perspective on why transparency matters, how narratives influence public opinion, and whether Norway's model can continue to balance economic prosperity with climate ambition in an increasingly complex global energy landscape.   What Is the EIC?

    Policy Certainty Key To Unlocking Capital: Ruth Herbert, CEO EET Hydrogen

    In this episode. Our host, Stuart Broadley, is joined by Ruth Herbert, CEO of EET Hydrogen, for a wide-ranging conversation on the realities of delivering one of the UK's most significant low-carbon energy projects.Drawing on her experience spanning HM Treasury, the Department for Energy Security and Net Zero, the Low Carbon Contracts Company, and Carbon Capture & Storage Association, Ruth reflects on her journey from shaping energy policy to leading a business at the forefront of hydrogen project development. She shares candid insights into the challenges of securing investment, maintaining investor confidence, and navigating the complex relationship between government policy and private capital. The discussion explores the UK's ambitions for hydrogen, carbon capture and industrial decarbonisation, alongside the critical role these technologies will play in preserving industrial competitiveness, supporting energy security, and delivering net-zero targets. Ruth also explains why attracting investment is becoming an increasingly global competition and why policy certainty remains essential to keeping major projects moving forward.   What Is the EIC?

    Andreas Nauen, Former CEO Siemens Wind & Senvion: Sharing Valuable Lessons

    In this episode. Our host, Stuart Broadley, is joined by Andreas Nauen, Operating Partner at Sandbrook Capital and former CEO of Siemens Wind, Siemens Gamesa, and Senvion. This is a candid conversation on leadership, strategy, and the evolution of the global wind industry. Drawing on more than three decades in energy, Andreas reflects on the 10x scale up of Siemens Wind, on leading REpower (latterly Senvion) while working with Suzlon’s visionary Tulsi Tanti, and on the valuable lessons learned during his corporate highs and lows. The discussion explores why business outcomes are often shaped more by leadership decisions than market conditions, the importance of company culture, and how leaders can avoid the "decision traps" that prevent organisations from adapting. Andreas also shares his perspective on offshore wind, investment cycles, the growing influence of China in renewable energy supply chains, and why energy security, affordability, and resilience must now sit alongside decarbonisation as the industry's defining priorities. Looking ahead, Andreas explains why he remains optimistic about the energy transition, the value of long-term partnerships, and what today's leaders—and the next generation of professionals—can learn from both success and failure.

    2026 Is Make Or Break Year: Jane Gaston, CEO Net Zero North West

    In this episode. The North West of Great Britain is home to some of the UK's largest manufacturers, chemical plants and energy infrastructure—but can it become the country's first truly low-carbon industrial cluster? In this episode of Inside Energy, Stuart Broadley sits down with Jane Gaston, CEO of Net Zero North West, to discuss what it will take to turn ambition into delivery. From hydrogen and carbon capture to skills shortages, industrial competitiveness and government policy, they unpack why the region has become one of the UK's most important proving grounds for the energy transition. The conversation explores how industry, policymakers and investors can work together to unlock major projects, why timing and policy certainty matter just as much as funding, and what happens if the UK misses the opportunity to secure its manufacturing base.
