Jan Rosenow Speaking Topics

Why Am I An Energy Optimist?

In the face of climate challenges, it's easy to feel overwhelmed. But the energy transition is not just necessary -- it’s happening, and faster than we ever imagined.

For years, we were told that clean energy couldn’t compete. Yet today, solar and wind are the cheapest sources of new power. Heat pumps and EVs are no longer future technologies—they are scaling rapidly, outpacing fossil alternatives. Policies once seen as ambitious are now mainstream, with net-zero targets covering over 90% of global GDP.

This session explores why optimism isn’t naïve -- it’s essential. The challenges are real, but so is the momentum. From market shifts to policy breakthroughs and technological leaps, we have every reason to believe in a cleaner, more affordable, and more resilient energy future.

When we embrace pragmatic optimism, we shift from fear to action. We see that the transition isn’t just possible -- it’s inevitable.

The Future of Heat: Decarbonization at Scale

For decades, heating has been one of the hardest sectors to decarbonize. But today, we’re seeing a shift: governments setting bold policies, heat pumps becoming mainstream, and fossil gas no longer being the default choice for homes and businesses.

People are asking:

  • How do we replace gas heating at scale while keeping energy affordable?

  • Are heat pumps and district heating truly viable alternatives for all buildings?

  • What policies and incentives will make clean heat the norm, not the exception?

This session unpacks why heat decarbonization is no longer a future challenge -- it’s happening now. We’ll explore the technologies driving change, the policies making clean heat affordable, and how cities, businesses, and households can make the switch.

When we rethink heating, we unlock lower energy bills, healthier homes, and stronger energy security. The time to act is now -- and the transition is well underway.

Energy Efficiency: The Invisible Powerhouse of the Energy Transition

For too long, energy efficiency has been overlooked -- not as exciting as renewables, not as visible as electric vehicles. But in reality, it is the foundation of the clean energy transition. Without it, we need more infrastructure, more generation, and more resources to reach net zero.

People are asking:

  • How do we unlock the full potential of energy efficiency?

  • Can efficiency really reduce energy demand at the scale needed?

  • What policies and market mechanisms can accelerate adoption?

This session explores why energy efficiency is the fastest, cheapest, and cleanest way to cut emissions. We’ll discuss the latest innovations, from smart technologies to new financing models, and how businesses, governments, and individuals can drive change.

When we prioritize energy efficiency, we don’t just reduce waste -- we lower costs, enhance security, and accelerate decarbonization. It’s time to put efficiency at the heart of the energy transition.

Electrification: The Fast Track to a Clean Energy Future

The future of energy is electric. As renewables become the dominant power source, electrification offers the fastest, most efficient way to decarbonize transport, heating, and industry. The technology is here, the costs are falling, and momentum is building—but challenges remain.

People are asking:

  • Can electricity grids handle widespread electrification?

  • How do we ensure clean, affordable power for all sectors?

  • What policies will drive the rapid shift from fossil fuels to electric solutions?

This session explores why electrification is the key enabler of the energy transition. We’ll discuss how heat pumps, EVs, and industrial electrification are reshaping energy demand, the role of grid flexibility and storage, and how smart policies can accelerate the shift.

When we electrify everything, powered by renewables, we unlock a cleaner, more efficient, and more resilient energy system. The transition is happening -- faster than many expected. Now, we must scale it up.
