Ribs, redundancies and renewables | Energy Voice

Where is the best place to have a heart attack? In the middle of the North Sea at 1 am might not seem ideal, but it turns out if you pick the right boat to be on, you might just be ok – and get back to flirting with nurses in the Aberdeen Royal Infirmary.

Something else in need of resuscitation are employments prospects. The UK sector has recorded a number of job losses over the last 12 months, with Shell’s recent announcement adding another 330 to the toll. A pivot to new energies may be one way to add jobs but the government’s transition deal remains elusive.

Africa would also benefit from more focus on energy transition. For now, the continent seems locked in to a path of carbon dependency. While some talk about leapfrogging, the emphasis in Africa is on securing power generation – from any source available.
