| Content | : | There is an unprecedented level of awareness of climate change and the role of decarbonisation in enabling environmental sustainability moving forward. In particular, there has been a major focus placed on the carbon produced through electricity generation. While industrialised nations are slowly moving away from fossil-fuel based electricity, emerging economies are still heavily reliant on fossil fuels. During the talk, Saifur Rahman, president of the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) for 2023, will examine the global objective of achieving carbon reduction and explore how to address the conflicting relationship between industrialised countries and emerging economies. He will also discuss the importance of cooperation between both sides to create a systematic solution that includes advanced low-carbon power generation, energy storage, demand-side management, and energy efficiency improvement technologies. |
