Welcome to the latest issue of Future Power Technology.
Beyond the energy industry, the global energy transition still holds meaning due to the number of areas it touches. In this issue, we explore several of these, from transformers to transport.
Electrification of transport will shift the paradigm of power distribution. We examine the best way to decarbonise commercial road vehicles, and ask whether aiming for electrification might be too narrow an approach.
Elsewhere, city planners dream of tackling waste and power issues in a single solution. Waste-to-energy plants seem like an easy fix, but with only a few countries investing in the technology, what does the future hold?
Nuclear physicists believe they have the answer. Fusion power remains just out of reach, as it has been for many years before. But with more certain breakthroughs over the past few months, we explain the science behind the power source to end them all.
Find all this in your edition of Future Power Technology.
