New episode: Is electrification the answer to heat decarbonisation?

This episode of the Energy Technology podcast tackles the question: is electrification the answer to decarbonising heat?

Jackie Park February 17 2026

The latest episode of our podcast, Energy Technology: Industry Insights, is out now.

Despite accounting for nearly half of global final energy consumption and 37% of energy-related emissions, heat is frequently overlooked in conversations around decarbonisation, mainly due to the complexity of the problem. As with the power sector, electrification is often touted as the solution – but is it that simple?

Join us as we tackle the question: is electrification really the answer to decarbonising heat?

This episode is hosted by Jackie Park, editor-in-chief of GlobalData's energy titles, and features insights from:

  • Blaine Collison, executive director at the Renewable Thermal Collaborative and former director of the Green Power Partnership at the US Environmental Protection Agency
  • Dr Chris Bataille, adjunct research fellow at Columbia University’s Center on Global Energy Policy
  • Cecilia Springer, principal associate at Synapse Energy Economics
  • Neil Harrison, co-founder and director at Reheat.
