"Urgently need to transition to lower carbon," says Adani Green Gallery curator Oliver Carpenter

London [UK], March 26 : Adani Green Energy Ltd (AGEL) announced its sponsorship of the London Science Museum's (LSM) latest exhibit, the 'Energy Revolution' gallery on Tuesday, in a partnership aimed at highlighting the global transition towards renewable energy.
The unveiling of the gallery marks a significant step towards raising awareness about the pressing need to combat climate change through sustainable energy practices.

Oliver Carpenter, Curator of Infrastructure and Built Environment at the Science Museum in London, shared insights regarding the significance of the 'Energy Revolution' gallery and the pivotal role it plays in addressing the climate crisis.
In an interview with ANI, Carpenter articulated the essence of the gallery, stating, "It's a gallery about the most pressing issue of our times, which is in order to avert the worst impacts of climate change, we need to urgently transition towards lower carbon, sources and uses of energy."
"So in this gallery, we have a real mixture of striking displays of contemporary technology and some historic objects from the Science Museum's collections," he further said.
"We care for millions of objects so we've brought out some of the latest and greatest for this display along with some of the stories and objects that talk about some of the history of the current low-carbon energy transition," he added.
Carpenter further elaborated on the diverse displays featured in the gallery, ranging from contemporary technology to historic artefacts, all of which underscore the imperative of embracing renewable energy solutions.

Reflecting on the genesis of the gallery, Carpenter emphasised the critical importance of the current decade in catalysing global action towards sustainability.
He highlighted the role of low-carbon energy sources, such as solar, wind, and nuclear energy, in shaping a more sustainable future.
Carpenter said, "We're in a really crucial decade for action around the world and if we can seize the opportunity now to make use of these great low-carbon energy sources from solar to wind to maybe nuclear energy to different forms of low-carbon energy sources and transition towards those and then use that energy around our everyday lives from moving around from transport to the way we build and heat and cool our buildings in lower carbon ways, then we can reduce the impact of humans on the planet and move towards a more sustainable future.
He added, "And that's what this gallery really highlights, those stories from the UK and from around the world where people or individuals or communities, companies are imagining these lower carbon futures and the actions they're taking to achieve their aims."
The gallery, he explained, showcases stories from around the world where individuals, communities, and companies are spearheading initiatives to embrace lower carbon futures and reduce humanity's impact on the planet.

In response to a query regarding Adani Green Energy's contribution, Carpenter highlighted the company's commitment to renewable energy and low-carbon technologies.
