Emissions reporting, emissions reducing and emissions replacing

This week, Energy Voice’s priority was, is and always will be emissions, emissions, emissions.

Returning for a second week, special guest David Bevan, corporate finance partner at this month’s podcast sponsor BDO, spoke about the growing importance for companies of emissions monitoring. In an ESG world, it could provide the antidote to accusation of greenwashing.

Sasol’s plans to cut its emissions by 30% by 2030 have caused quite a stir this week, with one activist investor less than enamoured with the idea. Fresh from his trip to COP26, Ed also shares a bit of pub quiz knowledge on the world’s most polluting sites.

Speaking of COP, there’s been good news for Aberdeen this week after the Scottish Government used the summit to announce £15m for the city’s hydrogen hub. There are low carbon fuel plans in place for the rest of the country too as politicians push on with the task of getting to net zero.
