    Removing CO2 from the atmosphere is set to be big business in the coming years. Johan Börje joins the show to explain what is needed to scale carbon removals up and what challenges need to be overcome.

    Carbon removals will be crucial in the fight to combat climate change, as excess CO2 will have to be removed from the atmosphere in massive quantities.


    Efforts are underway to scale up this still nascent industry and policies are starting to take shape around the sector.


    Johan Börje from Stockholm Exergi, one company looking to be a frontrunner in carbon removing, joins this episode to shed some light on what the sector needs from policymakers and what kind of clients are looking to take advantage of their services.

    Transport’s electrification is gathering pace but it’s not quick enough for some. 2024 has been branded a disappointing year for EV sales and some have even suggested that this is the beginning of a dip.


    But is this true? Or is 2024 just a small bump in the road? And where do we stand on issues like charging infrastructure? Jaap Burger, an electric vehicles expert and senior advisor at the Regulatory Assistance Project, joins this week’s episode to shed some light on those questions.

  • How to build a wind farm

    Look out of a plane window when you are flying over the sea or peer at the horizon from a ferry these days and chances are good that you will see giant wind turbine blades looming out of the deep.


    Offshore wind is generating more and more of our clean electricity, as governments around the world craft ever-increasingly ambitious renewable strategies. In Europe alone, countries want to roll out 111 gigawatts of the technology by 2030.


    But someone has to build these behemoths. The newest generation of turbines are hundreds of metres tall and hundreds of tonnes in weight. The infrastructure challenge is massive.


    New technologies like floating wind, larger capacity turbines and hybrid projects that include solar and hydrogen generation all mean that the challenge is only going to get more complicated.


    Mikkel Gleerup, CEO of wind turbine installer Cadeler, joins the show to share his experience from the frontlines of the energy transition and explain what is needed from governments to get more turbines in the water.
