No doubt, it's well deserved.

Nice to see the student newspaper at Boston University accurately covering our energy justice work: dailyfreepress.com/10/22/23/21528…

A new study led by @GENIE PI, ask how does the world see solar geoengineering? Strong demand for public engagement and multilateral governance. Even though support is conditional, not unconditional, and emphasis that science and society must go hand in hand deliver net-zero.

An engaging session on pressing global challenges and the future of impactful policy. #Innovation #PolicyAcceleration" @BennettInnovate @SussexUBusiness @SPRU

"Earlier today, I joined the Director @BenjaminSovaco1, Researchers, policymakers, Industrial leaders, and other actors for the launch of the Bennett Institute for Innovation & Policy Acceleration at QEII Westminster.

"Effective climate policy acceleration hinges on stakeholderism, the power of language and how to communicate to shape action, as @gilliantett @BennettInnovate

I’m an optimist by profession, but it can be hard, especially when I learn from @BenjaminSovaco1 @BennettInnovate that in the UK, one in three households is in energy #poverty In the UK In 2025 We have to do more to #EndPoverty everywhere

Prof. @BenjaminSovaco1 on Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS): "Once we deploy CCS at even moderate scale, we will need to pursue it in perpetuity, in a similar duration to nuclear waste storage sites. Read @Independent: ow.ly/fWwM50UNEFZ #ClimateChange #CCS #EnergyPolicy"

Damn right - and great visual support for my argument!

Sociotechnical visions of the future can motivate researchers to create a better world, but as social scientist @BenjaminSovaco1 argues in this Comment, they can also blind the scientific community to potential downsides nature.com/articles/s4225…

Thrilled with great discussions at the Africa Industrial Policy Lab stakeholders consultation and workshop in Abuja. We set and focused on coordinated priorities and actions needed to operationalise the #IPL and share broader perspectives on how to drive this @UNIDO initiative.

We have arrived at Palau Reial de Pedralbes! We can't wait to welcome everyone tomorrow for Engagement Day 1. #EngagementWeek2024 #ScalingExperimentation

A great opportunity to connect, share, and inspire actions to progress scaling experimentation. I am grateful to TIPC for creating a platform for insightful conversations and strategic learning. Gratitude to all the partners who joined us and shared their perspectives & expertise

In 2022 #ElectricVehicle market shares were highest in DC (9%) & CA (8%) because of #policies like the Advanced Clean Cars II Rule requiring every new passenger #vehicle sold by 2035 be #ZeroEmission, writes IGS's @cutlercleveland in @VisualizeEnergy: spr.ly/6016mPXCu
