The third episode of Energy Voice’s Gigawaters series explores the next phase of the UK’s offshore wind rollout – the new processes and systems needed to meet future challenges.

EV renewables reporter Michael Behr is joined by The Crown Estate managing director for marine Gus Jaspert and Orsted UK country manager Benj Sykes to explore how offshore wind can work in a busy North Sea. The needs of fishing, shipping and defence; coastal communities; and of course, the environment, all need to be considered for projects to work in harmony with ocean users.

They discuss how the UK needs to adopt a more systematic approach to reaching the UK’s clean energy goals ahead of 2030, and how all sides need to interact to ensure the country maintains its lead in offshore wind.

In this special EVOL X Sproule ERCE podcast, Energy Voice reporter Mathew Perry is joined by Sproule ERCE decarbonisation lead Ellen Mitchell, and CCS principal and reservoir engineer Andy Moore to explore the current landscape of carbon capture and storage (CCS).

The discussion spans global policy drivers like carbon pricing and climate goals, technical subsurface considerations such as capacity, injectivity and containment, and the challenges still facing the industry from cost and regulation to synchronising capture and storage infrastructure.

With insights from landmark projects and expert analysis, the episode unpacks what’s shaping the CCS sector across Europe, the Americas, and the Asia-Pacific.

Flexitricity is a pioneer in demand side response (DSR) which allows businesses to benefit by adjusting the way they use energy.

Tune in to hear the electric utility company’s founder and chief strategy officer, Alastair Martin explain to Energy Voice renewables reporter Michael Behr how the industry is facing up to the growth of renewable energy production and the need to meet demand.

The firm’s FlexGO technology, which helps commercial and industrial businesses simplify their energy flexibility journey. is in the market now and will be central to future energy system management. 

The Energy Voice Out Loud crew are back to discuss all the latest news from the UK's energy sector. News editor Erikka Askeland fills in reporters Jessica Davies and Michael Behr on Ithaca's latest moves as it pushes on with Rosebank and Cambo, and buys up a hefty stake in Cygnus.

And then Michael shares his thoughts on the state of the offshore wind sector - is optimism falling among key players after several setbacks? 

Finally, Jessica talks carbon capture and storage, and its role in the UK's energy transition.

All-Energy returned to Glasgow and the Energy Voice Out Loud Team were out in force, chatting to folks on the show floor, listening to panels and keeping you up to date with all the latest announcements. 

In this episode of EVOL, news editor Erikka Askeland, renewables reporter Michael Behr, Aberdeen features lead Ryan Duff chat with a handfull of the most interesting people in attendance at Glasgow's SEC. 

First up, Ryan speaks with Statera Energy's policy manager Phoebe Finn about the importance of large-scale renewables projects in the north-east of Scotland as employment uncertainty continues to hit the region. Also, Finn points to policy drivers that could be hindering the UK hydrogen sector's progress and what can be done to fix it.

Michael spoke with the Changineer, consultant Danielle Dale, about the carbon footprints of everyday objects. Which has the higher emissions - a Zoom call, 1kg of asparagus, a bank account or a cup of tea? Michael finds out.

And Erikka speaks with Emma Behjat, chairwoman of the AXIS network to recap their All Energy session entitled Make DEI Great Again and why energy companies can benefit by sticking to the plan to develop talent.

Energy Voice's team of reporters managed to record a few more conversations while at All-Energy so stay tuned in the coming weeks for more insight from the UK's largest renewable energies conference.

On this episode of Energy Voice Out Loud in partnership with ABB, reporter Mathew Perry speaks with Matt Wise, the head of strategy and business development at ABB’s Electrification Service division.  

Together they explore how behind-the-meter energy storage is transforming industrial electricity consumers into active market players across the UK and Europe.  

As energy markets grow more volatile, businesses are looking for smarter, more flexible ways to manage supply, reduce costs, and even generate revenue - without the need for a large upfront capital investment.
