Making a Big Beast Change Direction Quickly: Moving NZ's Transport and Heating Systems to Net-Zero. With Dr. Richard Meade

from This Climate Business

New Zealand’s transport system relies on fossil fuels. The technologies that heat our homes and businesses aren’t much better. What will it take to transition them towards zero-carbon alternatives? Dr. Richard Meade from Cognitus Economic Insight has tackled the question of Achieving a Timely, Efficient, Equitable and Orderly Transition to Net-Zero Emissions for Transport and Heating in New Zealand, a discussion document commissioned by Vector, Powerco, and First Gas. A teaser: There are roles in this transition for fossil fuel incumbents and for infrastructure monopolies. Dr. Meade speaks with Ross Inglis on ThisClimate Business.
