The falling cost of wind and solar power significantly reduces the need for carbon capture and storage technology to tackle climate change, a new paper has argued. In the near-term, the additional demand for clean electricity is met predominantly by solar PV, which provides over half of additional renewable generation in 2030.

She was invited on the show (1:24) to discuss the National Grid’s ‘demand flexibility service’ scheme, under which households and some businesses receive payments for using less energy at times of peak demand. She added: “And so whenever it isn’t windy we’re starting to get into issues of the grid being stressed”.

The public health benefits of realizing 100 percent zero carbon electricity by 2035 would be enormous. Moreover, avoiding all these negative health impacts creates massive economic productivity gains – getting to 100 percent in 2035 would avoid losing about 1.7 could get 90 percent of its electricity from zero carbon sources by 2035.

A sudden collapse of the industry - called a carbon crunch - could lead to economic disaster of epic proportions. As the coronavirus struck the global economy earlier this year, demand for oil dropped by more than a fifth and prices collapsed. For the first time in history, oil prices were negative. The transition is among us.
