The energy transition is going to require lots of different things across the entire value chain from production to consumption of energy and products, but central to achieving carbon neutrality are two major things, Policy and Investment. Today, I sit down with Kamila Piotrowska who heads up the policy and advocacy group for Baker Hughes in the EU. I ask her what she believes we need to see from a policy perspective for geothermal to truly grow exponentially, not just in the EU, but globally.
Some of us dive deep into political issues and policy while others of us steer clear of all things related to politics. Well, when it come to reaching net zero by 2050 goals, we all need to be active in our governments from state/local level all the way to country leadership. Policy will shape how we arrive or don't arrive at net zero. Today's episode focuses of course on policy from a geothermal perspective, how we have made progress, but also how we still have a long way to go and what needs to be done moving forward across the globe to make way for the geothermal renaissance.
