DESCRIPTION:The British Antarctic Survey (BAS) has committed t
 o achieving Net Zero Carbon emissions by 2040 from
  its direct operational activities including high 
 impact activities such as travel and field operati
 ons. The goal is to align with aims set by the Nat
 ural Environment Council which is part of the UK g
 overnment's UKRI (Research and Innovation). As par
 t of this commitment\, BAS has developed a Net Zer
 o Carbon strategy and delivery plan and identified
  key milestones along the Net Zero pathway to 2040
 .\n\nA major series of decarbonisation projects ar
 e in the process of delivery\, which include renew
 able energy and low carbon systems\, energy storag
 e\, automation\, a Digital Twin for the Royal Rese
 arch Ship\, RRS Sir David Attenborough and moderni
 sed and energy efficient infrastructure in Antarct
 ica. The challenges to overcome to achieve Net Zer
 o are significant\, especially when operating in A
 ntarctica. There are also however significant oppo
 rtunities that will ensure the UK polar community 
 can continue to deliver world class environmental 
 research in Antarctica in the long term.\n\nNopi E
 xizidou is the Net Zero Transition lead at the Bri
 tish Antarctic Survey (BAS). She is an Engineer by
  background with more than 13 years of experience 
 on energy efficiency\, carbon reduction and wider 
 sustainability. At BAS she is leading the Net Zero
  Team. Her focus is on the development and impleme
 ntation of the Net Zero \n\nTo attend please book
