OxTalks is Changing
OxTalks will soon move to the new Halo platform and will become 'Oxford Events.' There will be a need for an OxTalks freeze. This was previously planned for Friday 14th November – a new date will be shared as soon as it is available (full details will be available on the Staff Gateway).
In the meantime, the OxTalks site will remain active and events will continue to be published.
If staff have any questions about the Oxford Events launch, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk
Decentralised RE solutions and the integration of e-mobility as key elements of a net-zero policy?
“While it is widely understood, that the transition towards net-zero requires fundamental changes and developments in the areas of (renewable) energy generation, -distribution and consumption, the specific pathways towards net-zero are subject to a much wider debate. Key questions of that debate are, to what level can decentralised renewable energy (RE) generation contribute to net-zero, to which level is it desirable and what are the enablers for more decentralised RE generation from a grid-, policy- and consumer perspective. These questions are accompanied by the discussion of how can EV-infrastructure be integrated into decentralised energy generation on household level and for public spaces and how is the potential for EVs to support storage and demand-management technically and practically. As the current debate on net-zero is often focused on large MW RE projects as cornerstones of the transition, decentralised RE generation and the role of the consumer becoming a pro-sumer seems to be less in the focus of the public debate. The panel discussion is focused on debating some of these questions from an industry and research standpoint among a group of experienced panellists with substantial experience in the field.“
