Episode notes

Greg says renewable generation can help prompt the adoption of new solutions across multiple sectors, including agriculture. We'll hear more about solving the challenges of how to reliably integrate more renewables into the grid later on in this episode. But first let's turn to one technology that came up in nearly every panel I attended, which was low carbon hydrogen. There is effectively a rainbow of colours and lenses that are used to describe hydrogen.

In this episode of the ESG Insider podcast, we explore challenges and potential solutions to the energy trilemma, which is the idea that the world needs to balance energy security, energy sustainability and energy affordability.

We bring you interviews from the sidelines of the Reuters Global Energy Transition conference in New York City, including with Greg Jackson, Founder and CEO of UK-based renewable electricity supplier Octopus Energy Group.

We speak with Joseph Vellone, Head of North America at ev.energy, which operates a cloud-based electric vehicle charging management platform. Joseph tells us how shifting the charging schedules of electric vehicles can help address the energy security component of the trilemma, specifically when it comes to maintaining grid reliability and enabling the use of more renewable generation.

We explore the challenges and solutions for adopting low-carbon hydrogen and carbon capture technologies with David Burns, Vice President of Clean Energy at Linde, a large industrial gas and engineering company. And we talk with Patrick Schultz, Executive Vice President of Development, Strategy and Innovation and Chief Growth Officer at Veolia North America. Veolia helps industrial and municipal customers around the world manage water, waste and energy.
