May 30, 2022 Financing Future Cities: Urban energy
Cities make up approximately 78% of global energy demand, and they contribute 70% of global emissions. Cities are also at risk from the effects of rising global temperatures, which are caused by these emissions. Greg Clark talks with Nikki Grady-Smith, Senior Vice President at BP, and HSBC’s Group Head of Climate Transition, Seb Henbest, about how cities can decarbonize at scale. In order to achieve carbon emission reduction targets, cities will have to become mass adopters of renewable energy. What will this look like and how will we finance it?
