In this episode, we delve into the symbiotic relationship between academia and the energy sector. Explore the pivotal role of research in driving innovation and addressing challenges within the industry. Uncover the methodologies behind conducting impactful research. Discover the leading research institutions shaping the future of energy, and how their collaborations with industry stakeholders propel advancements in sustainable energy solutions.

Join us for a deep dive into the transformative concept of sector coupling, a critical innovation in modern energy systems aimed at creating a more sustainable, secure, and efficient energy future. In this episode, we unravel the essence of sector coupling, discussing its importance and how it functions through the integration of different energy-consuming sectors with the power-producing sector.

However, the journey towards sector coupling is not without its hurdles. We delve into the main challenges and barriers, from technical limitations and regulatory frameworks to complex market structures, and discuss forward-thinking strategies to navigate these obstacles through policy reforms, technological advancements, and collaborative efforts.

In this episode we take it to the skies to discuss the energy-future of aviation. We are thrilled to welcome Maria Hagelberg from Air France and KLM into our studio, representing an industry that accounts for 3% of the global gas emissions.

In this episode we will discuss SAF (Sustainable Aviation Fuel), electric planes, operational optimization, and other ways the aviation industry work towards de-carbonizing the industry.

Today we welcome our first guest in the podcast. Sebastian Mernild helps us set the scene for the podcast and understand how the energy sector impacts our climate. Sebastian is a professor in Climate Change at SDU and a lead author of the IPCC report (better known as UNs climate report).
