They're multiplying!! Just three more days to book publication! #PowerUp is my personal journey through the global energy system - how we get, move and use the energy that powers our daily lives. Pre-order link in bio! @hodderbooks
Two years ago, Power Up was published. I can't believe how quickly the time has passed, and the wonderful opportunities that came from writing the book: speaking at book festivals, at energy events, and best of all hearing from happy readers!
I will continue to work towards a clean energy transition, and stay committed to sharing its importance to as wide an audience as possible. My career in energy has taken many exciting twists and turns, and I am looking forward to whatever comes next!

It's been a big week for presentations! Monday with @wolfepowerclub , Tuesday with Tomorrow's Engineers Live at @theiet , and this evening talking about sustainability with @arkwrightscholarships .
The picture is from Tuesday, thank to @aviateher for taking it! I was mid-story talking about the incredible @hockertonhp !

A year ago, I captained my university's team on the alumni version of University Challenge! I was a bit nervous about watching it at the time, but recently did and it was great fun to relive! I pulled out a few clips to share...
This is the final one, from the end of the episode. We didn't make it to the next round, but had a great time! Huge thanks to my amazing team mates @dr_shack_@clivetyldesley and Professor Lynn Saunders, I hope you all had a great 2025!

A slightly longer one today. These questions were all about energy, and all I could think at the time was 'you better get these right if you don't want to lose your job!!'... got there in the end with the help of the team!

This one made me laugh, I can see the exact moment I realise I have seen the film in question!

⚡ New Episode: Energy, playful engineering and a secret society 🎙️
Our new episode with Yasmin Ali (author of Power Up and team lead at RWE) is a love letter to the humans behind the power:
💡 How “fun” at work isn’t unprofessional — it’s literally how great teams get things done.
📚 Why engineering education should come with fewer lectures and more “let’s fix this thing in the real world.”
📢 Why the public deserves an energy sector that speaks in human sentences, not acronyms.
Oh, and Yasmin’s book Power Up gets a shoutout — because she’s out here making kilowatts cool again and helping non-engineers finally understand what’s going on in those pipes, grids, and panels.
Expect laughs, aha moments, and the occasional existential musing about what it means to “power up” a career, a planet, or yourself.
🎧 Tune in now — wherever you get your podcasts.
