Description

Does government need to get out the way and let markets deliver net zero? Or is the state key to delivering the technologies we need for the future?

This week is a crossover episode with the Modo Energy podcast, Transmission. Our host Sulaiman Ilyas-Jarrett, former government advisor at the UK Department for Energy and at No10 Downing Street, goes back and forth with Ed Porter, VP for Insights at Modo, on everything from the government subsidies for Renewables to the rapid scale up of batteries and the phenomenon that is negative prices.
