Richard Denniss from the Australia Institute will discuss his work on the economics and politics of supply-side interventions in the energy sector, and their role in broader energy transitions. Richard is the Chief Economist and former Executive Director of the Australia Institute, which is an independent think tank based in Australia.

Richard has recently been active in promoting a global moratorium on new coal mines, and in fact is here in Sweden partly to speak with the Swedish government about this idea. We’ll discuss energy, politics, economics, power and the challenges associated with trying to convince countries not to dig up their natural resources!
