There is an urgent need to decarbonise global energy systems to tackle the twin challenges of mitigating climate change and improving energy security.

What mix of technologies can help achieve this? How much will it cost? What progress is being made? Which policies can help accelerate the necessary changes? Prof. Taylor will cover these and other issues, drawing on the results of his current research at the University of Leeds and on his previous role as Head of the Energy Technology Policy Division at the International Energy Agency.
