Molly Webb, Founder and CEO of Energy Unlocked, explores why the promise of ‘smart’ technologies has yet to be realised in urban areas

Really important to get flexibility resources deployed for cost effective decarbonisation. This report gives us some concrete next steps 👍
Time for Europe to embrace the joy of flex!
Deploying #DemandSideFlexibility as a power system resource is key to switching fossil fuels for renewables, facilitating electrification AND cutting costs.
My new paper with @sunderlandlouis explores how. bit.ly/38W7mlB 1/6
Great to see the debate about what 24/7 carbon free goals can accomplish - what exactly are we optimising for? Grid carbon intensity, or the generation of one power plant matched to one company's demand?linkedin.com/posts/molly-web…
.@drvolts takes on the big debate around 24/7 carbon-free energy, regarding whether it’s the right goal for companies and cities to adopt at all bit.ly/3nFm5pN

Are 24/7 Carbon Free goals compatible with optimising demand to carbon intensity at the grid level? Our report energyunlocked.org/carbonfle… says they could be, it depends what 'signal' you use. It's not just about RECs @drvolts canarymedia.com/articles/cor…
History repeats. What can we do about it? Critically thinking about where our 'clean tech' comes from is.... well... critical thetimes.co.uk/article/serbi… @shelburne_pl @Jackstilgoe
This is a great explanation of how green a supplier can be. The challenge we all have is that with 40% of electricity still coming from fossil fuels (heat is worse) not all of us can consume 100% green all the time @BulbUK bulb.co.uk/blog/a-look-at-ho…

Why should national governments consider cities in the context of power sector transitions?
How can national- and city-level policies be coordinated to accelerate decarbonisation of the grid?
Great new paper by @energyunlocked, @SEIclimate & @ODIclimate: urbantransitions.global/wp-c…
Very excited to learn more about this grassroots initiative
Great chat today with @energyunlocked about Just Transition London! Let's make London the UK's first Just Transition cIty!!

Another way of looking at it... Very few cold blobs left. La Niña developed and shows up in the Pacific.
The climate is not changing uniformly, the Arctic is warming much faster than the rest of the world.
Data: @CopernicusEU and compares to 1981-2010 average.

Recent breakthroughs in machine learning (GPT-3, AlphaFold, and others) have involved a relatively new innovation in deep learning called the "transformer architecture". I'm pretty excited about the potential for applying transformers to help forecast electricity supply & demand
And electrification of transport: 22x faster pace required to reach net zero.
Getting to zero: Even on things advocates have massively invested in, like getting off coal, the pace needs to be 5x faster wri.org/publication/state-cl…

Who knew that @idriselba has been working with @ConservationOrg for over a year, and though brought to tears by what he has seen, he still thinks we all can make a difference on climate change. Inspiring during a time when we really need it. #hope #education #climatechange

Imagine need to meet net zero in 10 years and get 26 million UK homes onto decarbonised heat. Now don't imagine it, because this is our reality. Reporting, verification of the benefits will be critical to financing this.
Significant public & private investment is needed to underpin energy efficiency and zero carbon heat solutions.
@E3G is proud to have helped launch the UK’s first framework for lenders offering green finance to get our homes on track for zero carbon🏠🌏
