Wind Power

Will the war in Ukraine lead to a faster energy transition?


Listen Later

The tragic war in Ukraine has claimed thousands of lives, driven millions from their homes and destroyed vital infrastructure.


But amid the daily cost in human suffering, there is also a feeling in Europe that the war has achieved what the slower moving crisis of climate change could not, by galvanising policymakers towards a swifter transition to renewable energy.


But is this a moment in time? Or will we come to view this point in history as the real turning point in the transition to clean energy?


In the second episode of the Wind Power podcast, Ian Griggs, Deputy Editor of Windpower Monthly, spoke to one of the largest turbine manufacturers in the world, a wind farm developer and a European policy maker.


This episode was produced by Czarina Deen.
