Energy Resolve
Business energy is entering a decisive phase as countries and companies reassess how they produce, store and sustain power. This edition examines shifts in ambition, investment and technological leadership that reflect a sector navigating both complexity and opportunity. The debate surrounding Ireland’s long-duration storage future gains prominence as the 'energy storage sector calls for greater ambition in response to EirGrid’s reduced LDES proposal'. The discussion signals how storage capacity will influence grid resilience and highlights the importance of aligning national planning with long-term stability. Additionally, international dynamics also come into focus as the 'UAE’s 1B dollar pledge reshapes Yemen’s route to energy recovery.' The commitment strengthens essential infrastructure and demonstrates how targeted funding can restore confidence in systems weakened by conflict, while encouraging broader regional cooperation. Meanwhile, the recognition of 'Johnson and Johnson as the winner of Innovation in Decarbonisation - Large at the Business Energy Achievement Awards 2025' earlier this year illustrates how industry leaders are developing practical pathways to lower emissions. Moving into 2026, their achievement inspires others to adopt sustainable practices and reduce emissions. These stories collectively reveal a sector defined by policy recalibration, international investment and sustained corporate initiative.
