Looking forward to supporting the @IMechE “Challenges in the Hydrogen Economy 2023” conference held today at White Hart Lane, for @RollsRoyce 🍃 ✈️ ⛴️ 
Great start this morning on fuel cell vs combustion for land based applications (transport mainly): the opportunities and challenges of fuel cells in terms of durability and cost, and the quest for power density across the board (and certainly for flight).

Many, many experts already discussing the success or failure of #COP26, but on mitigation I must say that the overall progress since mid-2015 has been far beyond my expectations six years ago: bit.ly/CAT_Global2021 (1/n)
First of all, back in 2015 I (either too pessimistic on UNFCCC negotiations or just not a visionary…) didn’t believe that ‘1.5°C’ could at all make it to the #ParisAgreement, which is now even more firmly cemented in the Glasgow Climate Pact (2/n)
Most major emitters now pledged long-term #netzero – even India by 2070 (only 20 years after EU, JPN and USA!) However hollow these pledges may be at this moment, I consider them to be sth like ‘substantive ratification’ of the #ParisAgreement. (3/n)
As one of the first @hlcchampions, congratulations to @TopNigel & especially to @gmunozabogabir for his 3 years of hard work to raise ambition and the credibility of real economy pledges. We can’t deliver Paris without this action! #RaceToZero #COP26 1/5
Your drive & energy has brought us the #RaceToZero –growing since Madrid – #RaceToResilience & #GFANZ I fully support the plans to continuously improve the Marrakech Partnership (MPGCA). The next 5 years of the MPGCA must accelerate exponential change to keep 1.5C in sight. 2/5
Critical these plans include clear expectations for credible, transparent, fair, science-based (incl pre-2030 action) and independently accountable net zero targets, including considering the outputs of @antonioguterres Expert Review Group on non-state action 3/5
What did #COP26 #FinanceDay delivered? A 🧵 of key highlights:
First let’s recall some of the expectations for the financial sector initiatives toward #netzero at #COP26:
✅increased ambition
✅enhanced transparency
✅improved accountability
✅more inclusivity
✅transformative approach
✅increased ambition
✅enhanced transparency
✅improved accountability
✅more inclusivity
✅transformative approach
Efforts to gather such a broad set of financial actors under the #RaceToZero are remarkable and should contribute to making finance flows consistent with low-GHG & climate-resilient pathways (Art.2.1c of PA), having said that...

.@RainNewtonSmith begins the 2nd panel discussion by encouraging businesses to embrace the opportunities that come with decarbonising: "We're determined to offer as much practical advice as possible... It's just too important for us not to grasp that opportunity with both hands"
.@amandamack6 encourages those businesses already taking action to encourage others to begin their #netzero journey: "Its down to all of us to grab the attention of people who we don't think are on that journey yet, and help them start". #racetozero #BGANetZero
"All water companies in the UK have signed up to #netzero by 2030...This is a collective endeavour that we have all embarked upon and are incredible proud of." @PeterSimpsonAW, CEO @AnglianWater offers an example of sector-wide ambition and cooperation in the #RaceToZero
Pleased and proud to be launching today the first systematic assessment of #NetZero targets across nations, states & regions, cities and corporates, asking not only how far they cover emissions, population and GDP, but how rigorous they are

It's big. If you add in the countries setting #netzero targets as part of the Climate Ambition Alliance, you get over half of global GDP, 23% of global emissions, and 2.6 billion people. 2/n
