Europe leads renewables boom
Manage episode 417480998 series 2492203
Europe is the frontrunner in the global renewables boom, as wind and solar have become the fastest growing electricity sources in history. Listen to a discussion on why the massive growth in capacity is set to continue this year, while coal and gas generation set to fall further. However, there are headwinds. Curtailments and public acceptance are obstacles that the industry and policy makers need to address, while negative prices may be a concern to some they should provide incentives for innovation in storage and flexibility.
Host: Snjólfur Richard Sverrisson, Editor-in-Chief, Montel
Guest: Dave Jones, Global Insights Director at Ember.
