As noted here earlier today, yesterday I appreciated the opportunity to attend day 1 of the CEC’s ‘Queensland Clean Energy Summit 2025’ … especially for the conversations over coffee (and drinks at the end of the day) – but also because of a few worthwhile sessions that I attended.
I’ll be a bit late in for Day 2 of the CEC QCES today, because I thought it was worth firstly noting a couple of observations following the afternoon session, titled ‘Faster than Forecast’ (though I really wonder if that was a mis-naming for the session):
Whilst Emma Fagan chaired the session, we had interesting presentations from 3 different presenters – from which I particularly want to flag two things:
1) Firstly, David Dixon from Rystad gave a very useful presentation – including noting that ‘we’re moving fast, but not fast enough’ … with respect to the legislated ‘82% by 2030’ target
2) Then Oliver Nunn from Endgame Analytics spoke, and provided a number of useful insights and perspectives – including noting that ‘the ISP Step Change Scenario is divorced from reality’.
Coincidentally, the above (and in the context of the 2 important climate reports) prompted me to finish off and publish the article ‘Six different lenses to view the ESOO 2025 … giving wildly different perspectives’ that we had been working on in parallel.
