In this episode, we delve into the results of the UK's first hydrogen CfD, HAR1, where 11 winners have a total electrolyser capacity of 125MW — with an ambitious timeline targeting FID by 2024 and operational status by 2025.
We then shift focus to Estonia's burgeoning offshore wind sector, highlighting the 1.4GW Liivi 2 area, where a joint venture between CIP and Ignitis Group was the sole bidder.
We also explore the challenges in Norway's offshore sector, discuss BP's strategic acquisition of Lightsource, and Germany's troublesome 2024 budget - which is finally coming unstuck.
We take an in-depth review of the COP28 summit held in Dubai. We dissect the summit's final agreement, the establishment of the Loss and Damage Fund, and the commitments to triple renewable energy capacity. The episode also casts a light on the pivotal roles of China and the US in these negotiations, underlining the complexities of international climate politics.
Lastly, we turn our attention to the European Union's Grid Action Plan. We explore the EU's ambitious plans for grid expansion, digitalisation, and cyber-securing of its electricity network, highlighting the challenges and opportunities within the broader context of global environmental initiatives.
