In this podcast, Paul Butcher, our Director of Public Policy, looks at:
- the unprecedented nature of the current situation for natural gas, coal and electricity
- the consequences we are seeing for industry and consumers
- what caused the crisis, including:
- the 'series of unfortunate events'
- the surprising consequences of the pandemic and new ways of working
- geopolitics.
The discussion ends with what Paul argues is the main underlying cause that has allowed the other factors to be decisive: policymakers have left us in energy limbo rather than energy transition. In the second episode, out soon, discussion will turn to the Global energy crisis from a UK perspective.
