Why We Created The Energy Canvas
The sustainability landscape is changing fast. Businesses across Ireland and beyond are facing new regulations, rising energy costs and increasing pressure to act on climate goals. But with that challenge comes opportunity, and that’s what The Energy Canvas is all about.
Our goal is to bring clarity, insight, and real-world stories to topics that often feel complex or out of reach. Each episode breaks down what’s happening in the world of energy efficiency, renewables, carbon reduction, and sustainable business strategy, giving listeners the tools and context they need to make informed, confident decisions.
Whether you’re a business owner, work in the sustainability space or simply curious about how Ireland’s energy future is evolving, The Energy Canvas offers practical insights grounded in expertise.
What to Expect
Hosted by Dylan Walsh, the podcast features in-depth but accessible conversations with guests who are shaping the energy transition from every angle, from engineers and academics to consultants and policymakers.
We’ll explore:
- What’s driving energy costs in Ireland and how businesses can respond strategically.
- How new technologies like hydrogen and renewable power are reshaping industries.
- The role of compliance, audits, and reporting in achieving sustainability goals.
- The stories behind companies and people turning ambition into measurable results.
Each episode aims to make energy topics understandable, engaging, and directly relevant to real-world decision-makers.
Featured Episodes
Our first two episodes set the tone for what’s to come:
“Understanding Energy Costs and Smart Sustainability” with Stephen King
Stephen King, CEO of Energy Matters Ireland, joins us to unpack what’s really driving energy prices, how businesses can protect themselves from market volatility, and why sustainability is becoming a smart financial decision. He also discusses the growing ROI of solar, the benefits of energy brokerage, and practical ways to build resilience in a changing energy market.
“Engineering Ireland’s Hydrogen Future” with Professor Rory Monaghan
We speak with Professor Rory Monaghan, Head of Mechanical Engineering at the University of Galway and coordinator of SH2AMROCK, a €54-million project building Ireland’s first Hydrogen Valley. Rory explains how engineers are leading climate innovation, what hydrogen could mean for Ireland’s energy independence, and how research is turning ambition into impact, from sustainable aviation to planning reform and energy resilience.
These early conversations highlight what makes The Energy Canvas unique: a focus on evidence-based, actionable insights that bridge the gap between policy, technology, and business.
