As nations around the world attempt to reduce their carbon footprint in the face of climate change, attention has turned to the industry with the largest emissions globally – the Energy sector. The move towards decarbonisation is driving rapid growth in renewable energy, producing massive commercial opportunities for organisations that move fast. While the renewables sector is growing in significance, traditional energy sources are still an integral part of delivering baseload power.
We aim to keep you up-to-date and provide you with the latest insights into the Energy sector. Click on the links in the table below to access our latest thought leadership in this area.
