For the UK to achieve a "just and fair" energy transition by 2030, there must be immediate political alignment.

The UK will not be able to achieve a "just and fair" energy transition by 2030, according to a new report from Robert Gordon University (RGU), unless there is immediate political alignment to support supply chain investments, jobs in the offshore energy industry, and the economic contribution of the workforce. Image Courtesy: RGU The “Delivering our Energy Future” report dissected north of 6,560 pathways for the UK offshore energy industry between now and 2030, of which, less than 15 or <0.3% meet the "just and fair" progress standards. It is presumed that the UK and Scottish political choices, rather than energy market economics , will identify the size of the supply chain and workforce. To take note, the United Nations' definition of a "just and fair" change signifies: "Guaranteeing that nobody is abandoned in the progress to low carbon and ecologically manageable economies and social orders". As per RGU, even these limited situation...

Elon Musk’s Tesla Bids to Enter UK Energy Market

Tesla , the electric car giant led by Elon Musk, has taken its first step toward supplying electricity to British homes. The company has formally applied to the energy regulatory body, Ofgem, for an electricity supply licence, a move that could open the door to competing with the UK’s biggest energy providers. The bid comes through Tesla Energy Ventures, the firm’s UK arm based in Manchester. If it is approved, Tesla could sell electricity directly to homes, going up against big names like British Gas, EDF and E.ON Next, as well as newer suppliers such as Octopus Energy. The move reflects Tesla’s growing focus on the energy sector as part of its wider mission to accelerate the transition to sustainable power. Ofgem is taking comments from the public on the application until 22 August. After that, the regulator will review, with a decision expected within the next year. Tesla’s energy ambitions are not new. The company set up its energy division in 2015 to bring battery technology from ...
