Abstract
We have an addiction to fossil fuels, and it is not sustainable. How can we replace fossil fuels? How can we ensure security of energy supply? How can we solve climate change? Following the great success of his recent book “Sustainable Energy – without the hot air” Professor Mackay will explore pathways which we can transition to low carbon energy by 2050
