Introducing Energised from Intelligence Squared, made in partnership with Iberdrola, where we explore the most pressing issue of our time: the climate crisis. Temperatures are set to rise more than 1.5°C above pre-industrial levels in the next two decades. Scientists say that such an increase would cause irreversible damage to our planet. But is there still hope? If humans are to blame for climate change, then we must also provide the solutions.
Join us as we bring together experts and policymakers to delve deep into the key issues at the heart of the global drive towards net zero and the innovations that promise to accelerate the energy transition and transform the way we live.

Emissions from transport account for almost a third of global carbon dioxide emissions – and they’re growing.
Enter electric vehicles. Electric cars are far more energy-efficient than cars that run on fossil fuels. But they may not be a cure-all for our environmental problems: emissions from electric vehicle production are higher than emissions produced during the traditional car manufacturing process, and they are only as green as the power used to charge their batteries.
In this event our guests explored whether electric vehicles will solve our transport and emissions problems or if they are simply a false start in the journey towards green roads. Chaired by Kamal Ahmed, the panel featured Iberdrola’s Head of New Initiatives, Innovation & Sustainability Division Enrique Meroño and award-winning transport expert Christian Wolmar.
This event, in partnership with Iberdrola, was recorded on November 16 2021, and was produced by Feyi Adegbite with editing by Mark Roberts.
