@MLiebreich@1GarethWynJones Agree meat eating isn't a problem, pastoralists in this vid are a great example of sustainable meat production. Intensive farming practices produce ~14.5% global emissions, so avoiding eating meat from this supply chain will indeed help greatly :) https://t.co/ijs8XhLRk0
@NewAngliaEnergy Indeed, and plenty more detail still to be considered before any implementation. Full report can be found here https://t.co/gNpoxY9CFS
This is a really, really, really important paper by PM's Council for Science and Technology on importance of taking a whole system approach to net zero (and how to). cc @ELPinchbeck @MLiebreich@ClaireDykta@ProfCMitchell@DrRobertGross@NewAngliaEnergy

Really excited to see the Bridging the Gap programme this year looking at how a low carbon, digitalised, and highly flexible energy system might behave, and what that means for those involved
Introducing Bridging the Gap 2020: Peaks and Troughs. Exciting & v impt work from @ng_eso Very pleased to be a small part of the team that is going to examine this new normal https://t.co/ncgnvNpFkR
More #ElectricVehicles 🚗🔌, #heatpumps replacing gas boilers 🏠 and the power sector ⚡️ with net negative emissions ➖🍃
More on Future Energy Scenarios from our Head of Strategy @markdherring in today's @guardian#FES2020 👇 https://t.co/3IgW9RvjDQ
@Laura_Sandys@guynewey Agree, certainly is complex for homeowners. We were lucky to register for this local community pilot. A 30min online questionnaire and 1hr home assessment later, we had a whole home plan to lift EPC rating D->B. Fantastic initiative! https://t.co/e7j2m9mPrF
Last July we told stakeholders that we'd explore the 'so what' of our #FutureEnergyScenarios, and after months of engagement and analysis our first report is out, looking at the role of bioenergy, EVs and electric heat towards net zero. Huge thanks to @Laura_Sandys and the team!
Future Energy Scenarios for 2020 confirmed after a fascinating journey with stakeholders right across industry and government. Analysis now underway at full speed, looking forward to sharing outcomes in July! Read about them here: https://t.co/g4Ez2ib1pI

Diverging and disparate views on the use of Bioresources across the whole energy system in reaching net zero emissions. Covered everything from supply chains to consumer behaviour, and from policy mech to new tech and market signals. Much work to do, conclusions in spring!
What are the big uncertainties across the pathways to Net Zero? How should we think about these, analyse them, and share the conclusions through the Future Energy Scenarios? Am looking forward to reading through everyone's views on Shaping FES2020. Tell us what you think!
How do you think the new Net Zero 2050 carbon target and other changes across the energy landscape, will impact #FutureEnergyScenarios 2020 – let us know your views https://t.co/U6SZHElA0K to get involved.
"currently we operate with up to 80% renewables on the grid...and we know that we can go further"
Exciting times as we aim for a grid that can operate carbon-free by 2025!
Last week our SO Director of Operations @DBBurt appeared before @CommonsSTC to discuss the energy technologies we’ll need to use in future to decarbonise the economy, including the various options available for the decarbonisation of heat
Today, we publish our SO Innovation Strategy - our vision for the future of energy will be delivered by new technologies, new marketplaces and different ways of thinking #futureofenergy

Britain’s electricity system will be able to operate with 100% clean power by 2025.
The announcement by National Grid Electricity System Operator (ESO), which balances the system and ensures sufficient power supplies are available.
#Renewable#SaveThePlanet@nationalgriduk
Great to see the responses to today's publication of the National Grid System Operator 2030 vision! Great work from the team, and excited about the journey ahead!

Landmark statement by National Grid ESO as they confirm they can manage a zero-carbon grid by 2025. Just a few years ago it was argued that a few GW of solar would crash the system. Demonstrates a tech and mindset sea-change. #BeyondBlackoutBritain
