The electric endgame for fossil fuels

Electrifying everything does not solve the climate crisis, but it is a great start

The transition still needs plenty of assistance

The people’s power

Getting the most out of tomorrow’s grid requires digitisation and demand response

It might also need a dash of democracy

Beyond batteries

Decarbonisation of electric grids reliant on renewables requires long-duration energy storage

Low-hanging fruit

New technology can help monitor, manage and minimise methane leaks

Such leaks continue to dog the natural-gas industry

The long goodbye

Making natural gas emissions-free will be a challenge

It will mean dealing with its carbon content either before burning it or after

Heat, hope and hydrogen

Green gases can help in the shift from fossil fuels to electricity

But there will always be more to do
