In this episode of The Clean Energy Revolution from National Grid, Helen Skelton looks at the future of energy, and how we harness the huge potential of offshore energy.

Offshore is just one of many important energy sources that will shape our future, and National Grid is working to explore various options to find the right mix.

So what IS offshore? What’s its potential for getting to net zero? And what innovations are taking place right now to get us there? 

Helen is joined in the studio by Graeme Cooper, Head of Future Markets at National Grid, Morris Bray, the man leading the charge to deliver multi-purpose interconnector “pathfinder” projects and connect the UK with clean energy around the world, and Kerri Maddock, Head of National Grid Ventures Strategy who will tell us about the international vision for offshore.

In Season 2 of The Clean Energy Revolution podcast, Max La Manna takes a look at the role energy plays in tackling the negative effects of climate change.

 As countries around the world aim to reach net zero emissions, Max discovers how the world will be powered in the next 30 years as we work towards a future that doesn't contribute to global warming.

 Along the way we’ll meet inspiring people who are embracing new technology to make their lives, homes and businesses cleaner and greener, as well as the experts developing the technology, who explain how our lives will be transformed and how we can get involved.

 From the electricity we use in our homes and offices, to our transport, shops, schools, hospitals and factories, the energy we use to fuel our everyday life is getting greener and cleaner.

 National Grid has a crucial role to play, as they supply energy to homes across the UK and the Northeast United States - meaning they’re at the heart of connecting all of us to a greener future.

 Are you ready to be part of the revolution? Join Max for your definitive guide to the net zero energy transition.

The Clean Energy Revolution

Harnessing Offshore Energy

The transition to cleaner, greener energy means that big changes are needed to the infrastructure that keeps it flowing to our homes and businesses. So how are these changes making a difference to the workforce of today - and of tomorrow?

In this episode of The Clean Energy Revolution, Max finds out about:
New York’s Community Offshore Wind project, which could create up to 10,000 new jobs in the Northeast US.
The innovation needed to ‘upgrade’ the UK’s electricity grid, and how it will lead to new ways of working in a digital age.
Why a huge range of skills and roles - not just engineering and construction - will be essential for a successful energy transition and a cleaner future.

The infrastructure that helps bring more clean, renewable energy to our homes and businesses is an essential part of the journey to net zero. But wouldn't it be great if the work that's being done to make this happen was also bringing positive changes for people, places and our natural environment?

In this episode of The Clean Energy Revolution, Max finds out about:
A project that's helping preserve the habitats of local butterfly populations along the right of way for National Grid’s networks.
The world's largest vertical farm, where access to more clean energy is allowing foodstuffs to be produced with a much lower environmental impact.
The various ways that communities in Minnesota and beyond are benefiting from local construction of energy infrastructure – even long after the work is completed.

How Renewable Energy Infrastructure Benefits Our Environment and Communities

In this episode of The Clean Energy Revolution, Max La Manna discovers new ways that people and businesses can reduce their carbon emissions and the energy they use, and asks what this could mean for our homes and lifestyles – as well as for the planet.  

In the studio, Max is joined by Tristram Stuart - a writer and expert on the environmental and social impacts of food – as well as self-titled ‘Food Waste Disruptor’ Martyn Odell, aka @lagomchef, for a chat about low-energy cooking and how food waste contributes to global emissions.

In Glasgow, Laura Young, aka @LessWasteLaura, visits a nightclub that gets its energy from harnessing the body heat generated by clubbers. She also talks to young people from the 2050 Climate Group about how the city has been affected since hosting COP26, and how they’re changing their own lifestyles to become greener.
