The world faces a critical challenge: how to meet growing energy demand while urgently reducing carbon dioxide emissions. It means the global energy system must change. 
Will innovation come to the rescue? How will renewable energy evolve? Does the oil and gas industry have a future? Will batteries, hydrogen or even blockchain alter the way we live, work and travel? 
The Energy Podcast by Shell explores these questions. We speak to the engineers at the pioneering edge of science and technology, the experts tracking progress towards the goals of the Paris Agreement, and the entrepreneurs working to drive the change.

&lt;p&gt;What happens when a global energy chokepoint closes?&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;In this episode of The Energy Podcast, we go inside Shell&#039;s response to the closure of the Strait of Hormuz, a disruption that put around a fifth of global oil and LNG supplies at risk.&lt;br&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;br&gt;Drawing on first-hand experience, Shell&#039;s Chief of Staff Tony Nunan and Executive Vice President Shipping and Maritime Karrie Trauth reflect on navigating uncertainty, supporting ships and crews affected by the crisis, and working with governments, partners and customers to help keep energy flowing safely.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;From difficult decisions to the complexity of global shipping networks, this is a behind-the-scenes look at navigating a crisis when the world&#039;s energy system is under strain.&lt;br&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;br&gt;About The Energy Podcast: https://www.shell.com/news-and-insights/the-energy-podcast.html&lt;br&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;br&gt;Cautionary note: https://www.shell.com/investors/disclaimer-and-cautionary-note.html&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;See &lt;a href=&quot;https://omnystudio.com/listener&quot;&gt;omnystudio.com/listener&lt;/a&gt; for privacy information.&lt;/p&gt;
