SUMMARY:WEBINAR: Offshore Wind: The Future of Irish Energy?
DESCRIPTION:This address is the fifth event in the 2020 ESB/IIEA lecture series entitled\, REthink Energy. In her address\, Alla Weinstein will examine the important role that deepwater offshore wind energy is already playing around the world – and the role it will play in Ireland’s low-carbon energy future. She will discuss the ways that Ireland can harness its tremendous offshore wind resources by installing floating offshore wind farms off its Atlantic shoreline. Ms Weinstein will argue that this development will help Ireland reach its decarbonisation and renewable energy targets. She will show that the technology needed for floating offshore wind turbines is proven and market-ready\, and that\, by advancing research and technology development\, offshore wind could become a baseload energy source for Ireland. \nAbout the Speaker:\nAlla Weinstein isthe founder of Trident WindsInc\, a deep-water offshore wind project development company.

SUMMARY:WEBINAR: Regulating Digital Services and Digital Markets
DESCRIPTION:In her address\, Ms Canenbley will outline why new legislation is needed to respond to the way in which digital technologies have profoundly changed society. She will argue that although online platforms and digital services have brought many benefits for European citizens\, they have also created new risks and posed systematic problems. These problems include illegal online content such as hate speech or disinformation and problems relating to contestability\, fairness\, and the capacity of large online platforms to act as gatekeepers. The European Commission is preparing a Digital Services Act and Digital Markets Act\, both due to be unveiled on 2 December 2020\, to propose clear rules for Digital Services and Online Platforms in order to address these challenges. \nAbout the Speaker:\nChristiane Canenbley is the Deputy Head of Cabinet for the European Commission Executive Vice President for A Europe Fit for the Digital Age\, Margrethe Vestager.
