We've heard a lot about record-low prices in utility-scale solar. Get ready for more records in offshore wind. In the last two months, we've seen offshore project developers in Europe bidding for pennies per kilowatt-hour -- easily beating 2020 price estimates. <\/p>\n
Now the Europeans want to export that learning to America. In this week's episode, we'll look at how the two markets compare -- and why some of the market and policy conditions that favor offshore wind developers in Europe don't exist in the U.S. <\/p>\n
Then, Energy Secretary Rick Perry wants to know if renewable energy is a danger to Americas grid. His recent memo on energy markets was only a page and a half long, but it was packed with a lot of assumptions -- and we'll unpack them ourselves. <\/p>\n
Finally, we'll discuss Plug Powers deal with Amazon. Its not just about fuel cells -- its about finding any cost advantage in the ultra-competitive retail sector. <\/p>\n
