The Oxford Sustainable Finance Group hosted a talk by Guy Newey, CEO of the Energy Systems Catapult, on Wednesday 4 February at the Oxford Martin School, followed by a reception.
Newey’s talk, titled “How Government decisions really get made and what it means for Net Zero,” explored the increasingly complex politics of climate action, even as the costs of low‑carbon technologies continued to fall. He reflected on lessons drawn from major climate and energy decisions over the past 15 years and discussed their implications for the years ahead. Drawing on his experience in Westminster, he outlined how Government decisions were made in practice and offered his perspective on the future of energy.
