Clean Power 2030: bridging the national and the local (with Merlin Hyman OBE)

The UK has an ambitious goal to achieve Clean Power by 2030, and cement itself as a clean energy superpower in the decade that follows.

The success of this will depend not just on national leadership, but an ability to make the case for the energy transition locally, for the people that will see infrastructure built in their back yards, or want to know how they’ll feel the benefits on their bills.

On today’s episode we’re joined by Merlin Hyman, CEO at  Regen and a staple of the UK energy world for almost two decades.

Alongside our host Sulaiman Ilyas-Jarrett, former government advisor and Policy Fellow at the University of Cambridge Centre for Science and Policy, they discuss everythingfrom collective ownership models for renewables and local government schemes, to practical changes needed to the electricity market and the huge changes in the wind and solar industries to date.
