Wind power prevents rising gas prices from driving up European electricity market prices in the second week of November. In the second week of November, average prices in most major European electricity markets exceeded €100/MWh, although they were lower than the previous week. This decrease occurred thanks to the increase in wind energy production and … Continue reading Photovoltaic and wind energy in the second week of NovemberPhotovoltaic and wind energy

US offshore wind industry turns to supply chain to try to survive Trump
If the US offshore wind industry goes down after Inauguration Day 2025, it will go down swinging. Stakeholders have been scrambling to make their case before the new administration takes office on January 20, and they are not relying on clean kilowatts to do it. Instead, they are rolling out the supply chain defense. Connecticut … Continue reading US offshore wind industry turns to supply chain to try to survive Trump
