    S2E8 | The future of electricity markets in Great Britain with Stephen Woodhouse, Director at AFRY Management Consulting

    For the season finale of Fuelling the transition we are joined by Stephen Woodhouse, Director at AFRY Management Consulting. With over twenty years of experience in the energy business, Stephen specialises in changing energy markets, market design and the strategic response of commercial players. AFRY recently brought together market participants from a range of industry players to look at the proposed market design changes occurring in Great Britain. Initially looking at different aspects of market design and how a move to a centralised locational market could potentially happen, the scope was expanded after the REMA consultation. No longer looking at the formation of prices in the spot market and the extent to which we co-optimise with location systems and ancillary services, the project’s scope broadened. A range of issues from the REMA consultation were explored, including how energy could be traded separately from green energy, the possibility of split markets for these services, and the form of support available for capacity and renewable generation. Listen to the latest episode as Stephen explores the key messages from the REMA consultation, his view on marginal pricing in electricity markets, and the potential for more flexible demand on the system.

    S2E5 | Green Steel – shaping a better future with Eva Blixt, Senior Advisor at Jernkontoret

    In this episode we are joined by Eva Blixt, Senior Advisor and Research Manager at Jernkontoret, the Swedish Steel Industry Association. Jernkontoret safeguards the steel industry's interests, working for the best possible preconditions for operations in Sweden. Traditionally, the steel industry’s image has not been well perceived, being seen as old-fashioned, male-dominated, and negatively impacting the environment, which led to Jernkontoret working with stakeholders to develop their “steel shapes a better future” vision. The vision has three key undertakings to change this perception: leading technical development, nurturing creative individuals, and creating environmental benefits. Eva joins us along with John Williams, Head of Hydrogen Expertise Cluster and Bettina Wittneben, Sustainability Lead UK at AFRY Management Consulting, to discuss where the steel industry is heading through innovations such as fossil-free steel, its associated emissions, and how it has changed in recent years.
