Why 2030 is a pivotal year in the race to net zero
Oct 26, 2023
In the latest episode of the Energy Connects podcast, Chiranjib Sengupta hosts Grant Dougans, Partner at Washington, DC for Bain & Company, and the global lead of the company’s strategy capability across Energy and Natural Resources sectors, to discuss the lessons learnt from the recently published Global Energy & Natural Resources (ENR) analysis.
Grant dives deep to examine whether companies are doing enough to speed up decarbonisation and whether the target of Net Zero by 2050 is realistic, and identify new growth opportunities for energy businesses.
They also discuss technologies that would be most critical to the pursuit of energy transition, the fallout of a shortage of technical talent in the industry, and why 2030 is a pivotal year in the race to net zero.
