Decarbonisation is accelerating around the world. At the same time, energy systems are being reshaped, with large wind, solar and hydro projects often located far from population centres. Connecting them requires extensive new transmission infrastructure, delivered at unprecedented scale and speed.
In the first video of our Delivering Mega Projects series, Carl Parlongo examines why transmission has become a critical bottleneck. From land access and community engagement to planning approvals, resourcing and equipment constraints, he unpacks the interconnected challenges that must be addressed simultaneously if major infrastructure programmes are to keep pace with global decarbonisation goals.
