Solar energy is a huge part of the journey to net-zero - and Great Britain is well-positioned to deploy this technology at scale! There’s far more than meets the eye to this often seemingly passive generation source. We explain why on our latest episode of Modo: The Podcast.
In this episode, Quentin chats to Ross Grier (Managing Director at NextEnergy Capital). Over the course of their conversation, they cover:
- Which markets are suited to solar generation, and how this asset class operates within them.
- The investment landscape for solar energy, both at home and overseas.
- The common problems with legacy solar tech - and the incredible measures being taken to ensure newbuild solar is as efficient as possible.
- The accuracy and usefulness of Renewable Obligation Contracts - and why it’s so important that we get them right!
- How to co-locate a 50 MW battery with a new solar park (and retrofit existing sites to include storage).
- And, of course, where NextEnergy Group fits into this.
