Bridging the gap to Net Zero

Bridging the Gap to Net Zero peaks and troughs workshops

We held the first of our Bridging the Gap workshops this year at the end of October, bringing together a wide range of our stakeholders.

The aim was to discuss the new ‘peaks’ and critical points in our energy system, and then how markets, tech and data and digitalisation could help to manage these.

In the next instalment, we led three webinars covering our interim findings relating to markets, technology and data and digitalisation and how they can help with the challenges of operating a decarbonised electricity system.

Last year's programme

Through last year's Bridging the Gap report, we explored:

• Bioenergy in a net zero world
• How electric vehicles (EVs) can facilitate greater growth of renewable generation
• Managing peak electric heat demand

As well as topic-specific recommendations, we identified a need for a common, ‘whole society’ definition of net zero, so we all know what we’re working towards.

For more information about our recommendations, read our one-page infographic and the report itself.

Look out for our thought piece, ‘Defining Net Zero’ in the next few weeks, which picks up some of the actions from the report.
