My latest publication, 'Managing Energy Data', challenges the conventional view of energy in society, and proposes a more promising vision. It is Working Paper 2 in my current project for Chatham House and the Sussex Energy Group, on 'Managing Energy: for climate and security'. Working Paper 1 argues that we are 'Managing Energy Wrong'. Working Paper 3, on 'Managing Energy Technology', is now in preparation.

On 9 December 2009 I gave the David Hall Memorial lecture for UK-ISES, called 'Down With Fuel!'; you can watch it here. On 3 March 2010 I gave the 'Core Connections' guest lecture at the University of New England, on 'Changing The Way The World Works'. On 25 March, at the Oxford Literary Festival, I called for 'A New Energy Story'. On 17 May I gave a seminar to the Electricity Policy Research Group at Cambridge, on 'An Electric Planet?'. On 27 I spoke at Warwick Business School on 'Energy Policy and Regulation: Future Challenges'.
