Did you know that offshore wind - at around 50% cheaper than gas to produce electricity - is one of the most cost-effective sources of energy? So the more wind power we have, the bigger the impact it can have. This week’s Energy Pod takes a deep dive into this topic, and specifically the impact that meeting the UK’s ambitious offshore wind targets – to increase capacity from 13.7GW to 50GW (265%) by 2050 - could have on UK energy costs. ABB’s wind experts, Per-Erik Holsten and Simon Wynne, discuss how realistic meeting these targets is and what needs to be done to make this happen. If we get it right, offshore wind could play a big role in boosting the country’s energy security and powering every home in Britain with green electricity. Hosted on Acast.

Tackling the global water crisis (00:11:16)
This week’s Energy Pod takes you back to World Water Day 2023, in March, when the United Nations (UN) launched a new water action agenda to highlight the continued urgency of our water crisis and report on progress made against their sustainable development goals. Featuring highlights from ABB’s Decoded podcast, it serves as a reality check of what needs to be done to meet the UN goals, with ABB research showing that wastewater treatment capacity needs to increase annually by 8.56 billion cubic meters – which means investment in an additional 469 treatment facilities per year. Two specialists from ABB discuss the water scarcity crisis - in which 2.2 billion people lack access to safely managed drinking water, more than 4.2 billion people lack safely managed sanitation, and a staggering 80 percent of wastewater flows back into the ecosystem without being treated or reused - and how technology can help solve it. Tune in to hear why addressing this crisis is more important than ever, and more specifically, how wastewater treatment can play a part in addressing global water scarcity. Hosted on Acast.

Role of automation in creating sustainable materials and processes (00:08:17)
In today’s Energy Pod, Scott McKay discusses how ABB is working with NatureWorks to help accelerate the shift away from plastic and towards more sustainable materials, specifically bioplastics - plastics that are made from a renewable resource and can break down naturally. NatureWorks is developing a new facility in Thailand that will use sugarcane as a feedstock to produce 75,000 tons of sustainable plastic per year when fully operational. ABB’s technology will help improve energy and production efficiency of bioplastic manufacturing, expected to grow over 260 percent by 2026. With approximately 350m tons of plastic churned out globally each year, the need to switch is critical to enabling and accelerating the energy transition. Tune in to hear more. Hosted on Acast.

Making offshore operations more energy efficient through autonomous operations (00:08:25)
Today on ABB Energy Pod you can be the first to hear about ABB’s ‘Energy Transition Equation’ for the offshore oil and gas sector which launches this week. Johan de Villiers, Global Industry Manager Oil, Gas, Offshore Power at ABB, will explain how the offshore sector can become more sustainable, which is critical to the success of the energy transition. We all know that we are currently facing a global energy security crisis, while at the same time trying to navigate the energy transition. So how can oil and gas play its part?The report details how the move towards autonomous offshore operations can increase stability of energy supply and production, key to energy security. It reveals how 300,000 tons in carbon emissions can be saved by autonomous operations per annum per offshore site (approximately 25 percent reduction). This is the equivalent of removing 150,000 combustion cars from the road each year.Tune in to find out more. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Unveiling ABB’s Energy Transition Equation Campaign (00:04:59)
This week on Energy Pod the President of ABB Energy Industries unveils the first of ABB’s “Energy Transition Equation” reports to show how cities can tackle water stress by reducing carbon emissions and costs of wastewater treatment for reuse. Currently, only half of our wastewater is properly treated. Tune in to hear how, when treated effectively, wastewater can safely be returned to the water cycle and how technology can help utilities reduce carbon emissions by up to 2,000 tons per annum. This is the equivalent volume of CO2 responsible for 30,000 tons of glacier mass lost every year!With the United Nations predicting a 40 percent water deficit by 2040, Brandon Spencer will discuss why we need to do more now to solve our global water crisis.
