1800 to the Present: a History of Britain's Energy Transition with Arthur Downing (Octopus Energy)

What can 200 years of energy history teach us about the energy revolution happening today?

We are joined by Arthur Downing, Director of Strategy at Octopus and author of the forthcoming book Power and the People: a history of energy in Britain since 1800, to discuss how the energy system has changed in the 200 years since its inception, and what lessons we should learn as we try to build a new system around renewables, electric vehicles, and other low carbon technologies.

Hosted by Sulaiman Ilyas-Jarrett, former Head of Policy and Strategy for Renewable Electricity Delivery at the UK Department for Energy and Senior Advisor at No10 Downing Street. He is now a Policy Fellow at the University of Cambridge Centre for Science and Policy.
