Episode description

This week Chris is joined by Meredith Angwin, author of the book “shorting the grid”. The two talk about the stability of the US grid, how the northeast was once on the brink of a rolling black-out and why gas power plants play such a crucial role in this. Listen in to find out how tax credits influence the occurrence of negative electricity prices and how grid costs are allocated to the consumers.
