In Europe, in particular, the parallels have led to the realization that the European Union’s COVID-19 response may also hold the key to addressing and accelerating longer-term decarbonization goals. Unlike COVID-19, the climate crisis is slow-burning, … [Read more...]

Regulatory challenges to foster cross-border trade in electricity systems with increasing shares of renewables

April 21, 2020 by Machiel Mulder

The share of renewable generation in Europe’s power system is rising fast, but interconnection is not keeping up. Join us on May 19, 2020 to discuss this and related issues. More wind and solar makes the supply of electricity much more dependent on the weather. Nobody wants to build capacity only to switch it off when there’s too much heading onto the local grid. This could put an extra strain on delivering the Green Deal. One solution is to … [Read more...]
