To achieve fully carbon-free grids, we need to move beyond annual matching of renewables, towards 100% carbon-free electricity, 24 hours per day, 7 days a week. This will require an evolution towards more granular electricity tracking, new purchasing strategies, investment in a broad range of technologies, storage and demand flexibility, and supporting policies. Join us for a discussion with leaders in 24/7 carbon-free electricity on why it’s important for them and what they are doing to achieve 100% carbon-free electricity consumption, at all hours, everywhere.
Key questions to be addressed will include the following:
What is 24/7 carbon-free energy and why do we need it?
What role can corporates play in achieving 100% 24/7 carbon-free energy?
This session is hosted by Climate Group.
