Episode description
Renewable power is the future (and the present!) - but its buildout comes with plenty of challenges. From getting the public onside to navigating policies and regulations, we’ve got so much more to do. To reach our goals, we’ll need a combination of technologies - some established, some nascent, and some still to be imagined! So, what do we need in order to build a brighter future?
On the latest episode of Modo: The Podcast, we’re thrilled to introduce Hannah Staab (Head of Advisory for Europe, Natural Power). Anybody who has met Hannah, or heard her speak before, will know the passion and expertise she brings. Across the course of their conversation, she and Quentin discuss:
- Ongoing developments in co-location - whether that’s solar and storage, wind and solar, or combined ‘energy parks’. How can we make the most of increasingly rare (and expensive) grid connections?
- The locational challenges of encouraging behind-the-meter renewable uptake. Why, for example, is it more appealing to fit a domestic battery in Germany than in the UK?
- Where hydrogen might fit into our ever-evolving web of renewable technologies. What’s the business case? And how would CfDs work?
- What’s going on with onshore wind in Great Britain right now?
- And loads, loads more - including where Natural Power fits into all of this.
