Climate science and the energy transformation: challenges and opportunities (Professor David Brayshaw, University of Reading)
Tuesday 24 June 2025 at15:00-16:00, DYNAMICUM Aqua 1A13c
Energy systems around the world are undergoing rapid and far-reaching change. From the electrification of transport and heating, through to the growing dependence on renewables and increasing weather-exposure of infrastructure, there is an urgent need for high-quality weather and climate information across all time scales to support the energy transition. While much progress has been made over the last 10-15 years, there remain many areas of “disconnect” between energy- and climate- science that need to be addressed to enable deeper exchanges of ideas, data and know-how. This presentation will outline some of the questions, challenges and opportunities involved.
