1 00:00:01,240 --> 00:00:05,120 Speaker 1: Welcome to zero. I am Akshatrati. This week one goal, 2 00:00:05,320 --> 00:00:20,480 Speaker 1: two technologies, three times the renewables. It's day five of 3 00:00:20,600 --> 00:00:23,799 Speaker 1: cop and it's been busy around here. Over the weekend, 4 00:00:23,840 --> 00:00:26,080 Speaker 1: we heard leaders from more than one hundred and fifty 5 00:00:26,120 --> 00:00:29,840 Speaker 1: countries wanting to secure a more ambitious deal on tackling 6 00:00:29,840 --> 00:00:35,960 Speaker 1: climate change. My country is experiencing devastating impacts of climate change. 7 00:00:36,600 --> 00:00:40,720 Speaker 2: This crisis must never be seen as a distant threat. 8 00:00:41,479 --> 00:00:45,440 Speaker 2: Let's make this called the first one where the benefits 9 00:00:45,479 --> 00:00:51,040 Speaker 2: of our concrete commitments exceed our excuses and the carbon 10 00:00:51,080 --> 00:00:54,000 Speaker 2: footprints of the planes we arrived on. 11 00:00:56,560 --> 00:01:00,840 Speaker 1: There have already been some significant successes, include the announcement 12 00:01:00,920 --> 00:01:03,280 Speaker 1: of half a billion dollars is set up the Loss 13 00:01:03,280 --> 00:01:06,400 Speaker 1: and Damage Fund, and of course there have been many 14 00:01:06,640 --> 00:01:09,560 Speaker 1: many side deals which you can read about on Bloomberg 15 00:01:09,600 --> 00:01:12,240 Speaker 1: dot com for free during these two weeks of coal. 16 00:01:13,319 --> 00:01:16,479 Speaker 1: But a lot still remains to be agreed on, including 17 00:01:16,600 --> 00:01:20,640 Speaker 1: the goal to triple renewables globally by twenty thirty. If 18 00:01:20,640 --> 00:01:23,840 Speaker 1: it's achieved, electricity will be the first economic sector to 19 00:01:23,920 --> 00:01:27,560 Speaker 1: get on track for net zero by twenty fifty. Currently, 20 00:01:27,600 --> 00:01:30,840 Speaker 1: the world has about three point six terraworts of renewables 21 00:01:30,840 --> 00:01:34,000 Speaker 1: installed that took us more than two decades to build. 22 00:01:34,480 --> 00:01:37,280 Speaker 1: Tripling it would mean getting to eleven terrrawarts in just 23 00:01:37,520 --> 00:01:40,840 Speaker 1: seven years. That is a lot of solar panels and 24 00:01:40,880 --> 00:01:44,120 Speaker 1: wind turbines to deploy. And there are other challenges like 25 00:01:44,160 --> 00:01:47,680 Speaker 1: building out battery storage and grids all around the world. 26 00:01:48,160 --> 00:01:51,240 Speaker 1: So how exactly are we going to do it? To 27 00:01:51,280 --> 00:01:53,480 Speaker 1: find out, I spoke with Jenny Chase, one of the 28 00:01:53,560 --> 00:01:56,080 Speaker 1: lead authors of a new report by Bloomberg ne EF. 29 00:01:56,640 --> 00:01:59,080 Speaker 1: It looks at everything that is needed to achieve the goal. 30 00:01:59,640 --> 00:02:02,639 Speaker 1: Jenny is being a lead solar analyst and the author 31 00:02:02,720 --> 00:02:06,200 Speaker 1: of Solar Power Finance Without the Jargon, a second edition 32 00:02:06,240 --> 00:02:19,239 Speaker 1: of which will be published early next year. Jenny, welcome 33 00:02:19,280 --> 00:02:19,880 Speaker 1: back to the show. 34 00:02:20,080 --> 00:02:21,120 Speaker 3: Nice to be here at SHAD. 35 00:02:21,360 --> 00:02:26,080 Speaker 1: We're going to talk about tripling renewable energy by twenty thirty. 36 00:02:26,400 --> 00:02:29,840 Speaker 1: Let's start with the basics before we triple renewables. Where 37 00:02:29,880 --> 00:02:32,440 Speaker 1: are we right now? What is our starting point? 38 00:02:32,639 --> 00:02:34,280 Speaker 3: As of the end of twenty twenty two, we have 39 00:02:34,600 --> 00:02:38,440 Speaker 3: about three point six terrawatts of renewable energy and this 40 00:02:38,480 --> 00:02:42,680 Speaker 3: is wind, solar, big and small, hydro geothermal by a mass, 41 00:02:42,720 --> 00:02:45,720 Speaker 3: and marine and tidle. Now the bit of that that 42 00:02:45,800 --> 00:02:49,400 Speaker 3: anyone expects to drastically increase is a solar and wind section. 43 00:02:50,680 --> 00:02:53,359 Speaker 3: And it's honestly great that we can even talk about 44 00:02:53,400 --> 00:02:57,920 Speaker 3: tripling renewables or talk about eleven terrawatts of renewables, which 45 00:02:57,960 --> 00:03:00,840 Speaker 3: is the other number that's being battered around, because ten 46 00:03:00,919 --> 00:03:04,280 Speaker 3: years ago eleven terrawatts of renewables would have been an 47 00:03:04,280 --> 00:03:07,600 Speaker 3: insane target. Nobody would have believed we can get there. 48 00:03:07,639 --> 00:03:09,760 Speaker 3: And the reason why we can actually talk about this 49 00:03:09,800 --> 00:03:12,720 Speaker 3: maybe being achievable is that wind and solar have got 50 00:03:12,760 --> 00:03:18,000 Speaker 3: really cheap over the last decade. Solar will probably be 51 00:03:18,080 --> 00:03:21,680 Speaker 3: pretty close or even exceed tripling. The challenge is wind. 52 00:03:22,040 --> 00:03:24,360 Speaker 3: Our win team, who are sitting in different regions trying 53 00:03:24,360 --> 00:03:26,600 Speaker 3: to come up with a sensible forecast for twenty thirty 54 00:03:26,680 --> 00:03:29,280 Speaker 3: based on pipeline, based on policy, based on what's going 55 00:03:29,320 --> 00:03:33,480 Speaker 3: on in their regions, are saying that no, wind is 56 00:03:33,480 --> 00:03:36,240 Speaker 3: not going to triple by twenty thirty. It isn't the 57 00:03:36,320 --> 00:03:38,640 Speaker 3: end for renewables if governments don't sign off on this, 58 00:03:38,960 --> 00:03:41,640 Speaker 3: but it would really help to have some acceleration, particularly 59 00:03:41,680 --> 00:03:42,880 Speaker 3: on the wind side, and so. 60 00:03:42,880 --> 00:03:46,560 Speaker 1: The difference between where we will be with business as usual, 61 00:03:46,640 --> 00:03:49,960 Speaker 1: which is nine terrorworts, and where tripling would take us 62 00:03:50,280 --> 00:03:54,880 Speaker 1: eleven terror warts is two terrorwards, which is a big difference. 63 00:03:55,240 --> 00:03:57,400 Speaker 3: It's a big difference. And the other problem is that 64 00:03:57,400 --> 00:03:59,920 Speaker 3: that two terror watts that fall shore is mostly win 65 00:04:00,000 --> 00:04:03,720 Speaker 3: and wind is better than solar on a capacity basis 66 00:04:03,960 --> 00:04:08,880 Speaker 3: because wind structurally has capacity factors of somewhere between thirty 67 00:04:09,280 --> 00:04:13,560 Speaker 3: and fifty five percent, whereas even in the very sunniest deserts, 68 00:04:13,960 --> 00:04:16,880 Speaker 3: solar has a capacity factor of maybe thirty percent. 69 00:04:16,920 --> 00:04:20,000 Speaker 1: Which is just basically a way of saying that at 70 00:04:20,000 --> 00:04:22,560 Speaker 1: any given time, because in a day, the sun only 71 00:04:22,640 --> 00:04:25,360 Speaker 1: shines for so much time and the wind only blows 72 00:04:25,360 --> 00:04:27,760 Speaker 1: for so much time, the one hundred percent capacity is 73 00:04:27,800 --> 00:04:30,760 Speaker 1: never reached. You only get a fraction of one hundred 74 00:04:30,800 --> 00:04:33,039 Speaker 1: percent in actual generated electricity. 75 00:04:33,480 --> 00:04:39,160 Speaker 3: Yes, fundamentally, per installed megawatt of gigawatt, wind generates two 76 00:04:39,279 --> 00:04:40,880 Speaker 3: or three times as much as solar. 77 00:04:41,279 --> 00:04:44,200 Speaker 1: Obviously, the entire point of all this is to try 78 00:04:44,240 --> 00:04:47,760 Speaker 1: and reduce emissions. So in the scenarios we do have 79 00:04:48,040 --> 00:04:52,400 Speaker 1: around tripling renewable energy, what kind of emissions reductions do 80 00:04:52,480 --> 00:04:54,480 Speaker 1: we get if we achieve that goal. 81 00:04:54,880 --> 00:04:57,360 Speaker 3: So the tripling renewables would have put us quite close 82 00:04:57,480 --> 00:05:00,880 Speaker 3: to Benf's net zero scenario, which ended up with ten 83 00:05:00,920 --> 00:05:03,080 Speaker 3: point five to ten what's by twenty thirty, and we 84 00:05:03,279 --> 00:05:06,800 Speaker 3: estimate that the emissions reduction is about nine point three 85 00:05:06,960 --> 00:05:10,520 Speaker 3: billion tons of carbon emissions in twenty thirty. 86 00:05:11,480 --> 00:05:15,760 Speaker 1: Wow, that is stunning. I mean, given where we are 87 00:05:15,880 --> 00:05:19,400 Speaker 1: right now, which is thirty eight forty billion tons of 88 00:05:19,520 --> 00:05:22,520 Speaker 1: CO two on an annual basis, that's like a twenty 89 00:05:22,600 --> 00:05:23,640 Speaker 1: five percent reduction. 90 00:05:24,160 --> 00:05:27,080 Speaker 3: It's a start. I mean, this is by twenty thirty. 91 00:05:27,800 --> 00:05:32,039 Speaker 3: That is both scarily close and a long time away 92 00:05:32,080 --> 00:05:34,520 Speaker 3: to be talking about twenty five percent reduction. I wish 93 00:05:34,560 --> 00:05:37,520 Speaker 3: we were looking at doing it quickly, but you simply 94 00:05:37,560 --> 00:05:39,600 Speaker 3: cannot turn the juggernaut much faster than that. 95 00:05:40,040 --> 00:05:42,400 Speaker 1: And so it puts us on the net zero track, 96 00:05:42,440 --> 00:05:45,040 Speaker 1: which is of course, we must recognize the net zero 97 00:05:45,080 --> 00:05:48,200 Speaker 1: track has all other sectors of emissions that also need 98 00:05:48,240 --> 00:05:52,880 Speaker 1: to decline. We always knew, given how well solar and 99 00:05:53,040 --> 00:05:57,039 Speaker 1: wind prices we're doing, that electricity sector is likely to 100 00:05:57,080 --> 00:06:00,359 Speaker 1: reduce emissions the fastest, but on everything else we are 101 00:06:00,440 --> 00:06:04,320 Speaker 1: quite far away. But let's go back to tripling renewable 102 00:06:04,400 --> 00:06:07,400 Speaker 1: energy and just break it all down. You talked about 103 00:06:07,400 --> 00:06:11,040 Speaker 1: how solar will play a big part in getting us 104 00:06:11,080 --> 00:06:15,280 Speaker 1: there because solar has become cheaper, faster, and is easier 105 00:06:15,279 --> 00:06:18,360 Speaker 1: to deploy, And you said we are on track and 106 00:06:18,400 --> 00:06:23,560 Speaker 1: maybe even exceed tripling of solar. Now, why is that 107 00:06:23,760 --> 00:06:26,680 Speaker 1: the case? Why is it that solar just makes for 108 00:06:27,279 --> 00:06:30,560 Speaker 1: the easiest form of renewable deployment there is in the world. 109 00:06:31,279 --> 00:06:32,600 Speaker 3: Our solar is incredible. 110 00:06:32,640 --> 00:06:33,120 Speaker 1: Act chat. 111 00:06:34,040 --> 00:06:37,800 Speaker 3: The thing is that photovoltaics is the first bulk electricity 112 00:06:37,839 --> 00:06:40,680 Speaker 3: source we've ever had that doesn't involve turning a turbine. 113 00:06:41,080 --> 00:06:45,039 Speaker 3: Do you know how special that is? We finally broke 114 00:06:45,080 --> 00:06:48,520 Speaker 3: the tyranny of turning stuff around to drive a motor 115 00:06:49,000 --> 00:06:53,080 Speaker 3: to generate electricity, and it's super cheap and just over 116 00:06:53,120 --> 00:06:56,280 Speaker 3: the over the past few weeks, solar modules have dropped 117 00:06:56,279 --> 00:06:58,839 Speaker 3: to a price we didn't expect to see for a 118 00:06:58,880 --> 00:07:02,120 Speaker 3: few years. Yet they are scary cheap, which is really 119 00:07:02,120 --> 00:07:04,320 Speaker 3: frightening if you're a module manufacturer trying to sell These 120 00:07:04,360 --> 00:07:07,799 Speaker 3: things exceeds our expectations and how much gets built nearly 121 00:07:07,839 --> 00:07:11,160 Speaker 3: every year, and it exceeds our expectations about how cheap 122 00:07:11,280 --> 00:07:13,880 Speaker 3: it can get, not relidly, so otherwise we could change 123 00:07:13,880 --> 00:07:16,560 Speaker 3: our expectations for better and that would make our forecasting 124 00:07:16,640 --> 00:07:20,280 Speaker 3: much easier. But solar just keeps hitting it out of 125 00:07:20,320 --> 00:07:22,040 Speaker 3: the park and it's not done yet. 126 00:07:22,280 --> 00:07:25,400 Speaker 1: So why can't we just rely on solar, Why try 127 00:07:25,440 --> 00:07:28,440 Speaker 1: and trouble ourselves to try and meet goals on wind 128 00:07:28,520 --> 00:07:29,240 Speaker 1: and hydro. 129 00:07:29,640 --> 00:07:32,360 Speaker 3: Well, I've been an expert on solar for eighteen years 130 00:07:32,400 --> 00:07:34,760 Speaker 3: act shat and the answer to that is that solar 131 00:07:34,800 --> 00:07:37,360 Speaker 3: doesn't generate at night, and it doesn't generate much in 132 00:07:37,400 --> 00:07:41,120 Speaker 3: the winter. Is a highly technical answer, and I know 133 00:07:41,200 --> 00:07:43,720 Speaker 3: this sounds silly, but as solar starts to be twenty 134 00:07:43,720 --> 00:07:46,760 Speaker 3: percent of your electricity makes thirty percent, that does actually 135 00:07:46,760 --> 00:07:49,840 Speaker 3: become a problem because the other sources that you want 136 00:07:49,880 --> 00:07:53,160 Speaker 3: to add to the grid potentially needed to make money 137 00:07:53,160 --> 00:07:57,240 Speaker 3: in daytime hours. So wind, for example, generates electricity in 138 00:07:57,280 --> 00:07:59,480 Speaker 3: the winter and at night, but also during the daytime. 139 00:08:00,160 --> 00:08:02,880 Speaker 3: Not getting any money for electricity in the daytime and 140 00:08:02,920 --> 00:08:06,200 Speaker 3: in the summer, that does hit the economics of wind farms, 141 00:08:06,760 --> 00:08:08,680 Speaker 3: and one of the things that governments would have to 142 00:08:08,720 --> 00:08:11,360 Speaker 3: do is make sure the wind gets built anyway. 143 00:08:11,880 --> 00:08:15,040 Speaker 1: So, okay, we can't rely on solar to meet our 144 00:08:15,120 --> 00:08:19,280 Speaker 1: renewables goals alone. That means we need wind power, and 145 00:08:19,360 --> 00:08:22,520 Speaker 1: that is where we are not on track. So what 146 00:08:22,600 --> 00:08:24,560 Speaker 1: is it that we can do to try and get 147 00:08:25,120 --> 00:08:27,000 Speaker 1: wind power deployment back on track? 148 00:08:27,480 --> 00:08:29,680 Speaker 3: So first of all, to build wind we need to 149 00:08:29,760 --> 00:08:34,000 Speaker 3: build more grid because wind farms are not distributed. They 150 00:08:34,040 --> 00:08:36,760 Speaker 3: tend to be in specific locations that have to be 151 00:08:36,840 --> 00:08:40,480 Speaker 3: quite big, so they need big grid connections to areas 152 00:08:40,520 --> 00:08:43,920 Speaker 3: of land where you're allowed to build wind turbines. And 153 00:08:44,240 --> 00:08:47,120 Speaker 3: easing permitting wields is also important, which is not to 154 00:08:47,120 --> 00:08:50,359 Speaker 3: say that we should just build wind everywhere, but governments 155 00:08:50,400 --> 00:08:54,160 Speaker 3: can allocate places and types of land which are suitable 156 00:08:54,200 --> 00:08:57,240 Speaker 3: for wind farm development and potentially build grid to those. 157 00:08:57,920 --> 00:09:00,880 Speaker 3: Those are the two really big things. And for offshore 158 00:09:00,880 --> 00:09:04,640 Speaker 3: wind actually there's the additional possibility of holding auctions where 159 00:09:04,679 --> 00:09:08,200 Speaker 3: the governments do site surveys on the seabed because it's 160 00:09:08,200 --> 00:09:11,200 Speaker 3: pretty expensive to look into a maritime environment and assess 161 00:09:11,240 --> 00:09:14,080 Speaker 3: the resource, and often you have developers doing the same 162 00:09:14,120 --> 00:09:16,320 Speaker 3: report for the same bit of land, which is silly. 163 00:09:16,520 --> 00:09:19,320 Speaker 3: Governments should take that over and do it once and say, hey, 164 00:09:19,360 --> 00:09:20,920 Speaker 3: anyone want to build an offshore wind farm. 165 00:09:20,920 --> 00:09:25,240 Speaker 1: Here. The renewable stories for all the difficulties that some 166 00:09:25,320 --> 00:09:28,480 Speaker 1: parts are facing and some governments are facing is a 167 00:09:28,520 --> 00:09:31,640 Speaker 1: good one, and given the level of deployment that we 168 00:09:31,679 --> 00:09:34,000 Speaker 1: are going to see over this decade, it's also going 169 00:09:34,080 --> 00:09:36,960 Speaker 1: to be one that will require a ton of money 170 00:09:37,080 --> 00:09:40,240 Speaker 1: going into the sector. What do the numbers say when 171 00:09:40,280 --> 00:09:44,520 Speaker 1: we look at tripling renewables? How much money are we 172 00:09:44,600 --> 00:09:45,240 Speaker 1: talking here? 173 00:09:45,800 --> 00:09:48,160 Speaker 3: So it's a lot of money, but perhaps not a 174 00:09:48,240 --> 00:09:52,160 Speaker 3: totally unreasonable amount. BNF calculates that last year about five 175 00:09:52,240 --> 00:09:55,200 Speaker 3: hundred and sixty four billion dollars was invested in renewables. 176 00:09:55,400 --> 00:09:58,679 Speaker 3: To be on track for net zero, about one point 177 00:09:58,720 --> 00:10:01,400 Speaker 3: two trillion dollars need to be invested in wind and 178 00:10:01,440 --> 00:10:04,960 Speaker 3: solar every year between twenty twenty three and twenty thirty. 179 00:10:04,960 --> 00:10:07,000 Speaker 3: On average, it actually ramps up a bit, it's less 180 00:10:07,040 --> 00:10:10,480 Speaker 3: than the first half of the decade. In addition to that, 181 00:10:11,320 --> 00:10:13,439 Speaker 3: investment in grids needs to ramp up as well, to 182 00:10:13,559 --> 00:10:17,079 Speaker 3: about seven hundred and seventy seven billion in twenty thirty. 183 00:10:17,480 --> 00:10:20,439 Speaker 3: So that's the grid to take electricity away from all 184 00:10:20,520 --> 00:10:23,640 Speaker 3: of these sources. And also a very significant amount has 185 00:10:23,679 --> 00:10:26,040 Speaker 3: to be invested in batteries. So the amount of batteries 186 00:10:26,080 --> 00:10:29,760 Speaker 3: worldwide has to increase by sixteen times by twenty thirty. 187 00:10:30,320 --> 00:10:33,240 Speaker 1: And of course we're talking about all this money as 188 00:10:33,320 --> 00:10:35,839 Speaker 1: if it's just a cost, but we've deployed so much 189 00:10:35,840 --> 00:10:39,679 Speaker 1: renewables not because it's just a cost, but it's actually beneficial, right, 190 00:10:39,679 --> 00:10:44,240 Speaker 1: somebody is paying for that electricity, and building renewables is 191 00:10:44,240 --> 00:10:46,680 Speaker 1: also pulling money away from fossil. 192 00:10:46,360 --> 00:10:49,640 Speaker 3: Fuels absolutely, I mean, you buy renewables so you never 193 00:10:49,640 --> 00:10:50,680 Speaker 3: have to buy oil again. 194 00:10:51,000 --> 00:10:53,559 Speaker 1: To meet the tripling renewable energy goal, we need to 195 00:10:53,559 --> 00:10:58,439 Speaker 1: deploy seven hundred and twenty gigawatts of battery storage worldwide 196 00:10:58,520 --> 00:11:02,600 Speaker 1: by twenty thirty. That's like sixteen times deployed by twenty 197 00:11:02,679 --> 00:11:06,200 Speaker 1: twenty two, so it's way more than the tripling that 198 00:11:06,280 --> 00:11:08,439 Speaker 1: we need to do on renewable energy capacity. 199 00:11:08,720 --> 00:11:11,840 Speaker 3: It's a lot of batteries, that's for sure, But on 200 00:11:11,840 --> 00:11:14,640 Speaker 3: the other hand, the battery market was quite small at 201 00:11:14,640 --> 00:11:17,600 Speaker 3: the end of twenty twenty two. Batteries is in a 202 00:11:17,679 --> 00:11:20,960 Speaker 3: much earlier stage of deployment, so our battery team actually 203 00:11:21,000 --> 00:11:25,120 Speaker 3: already says that energy storage capacity will increase fourteen point 204 00:11:25,200 --> 00:11:29,240 Speaker 3: five times by twenty thirty, So getting to sixteen point 205 00:11:29,240 --> 00:11:31,320 Speaker 3: one times, that's really just surrounding. 206 00:11:30,960 --> 00:11:36,199 Speaker 1: Eer batteries aren't in the target for tripling renewables because 207 00:11:36,200 --> 00:11:40,560 Speaker 1: obviously it's just about tripling the sources of supply for 208 00:11:40,679 --> 00:11:45,160 Speaker 1: clean energy. But why does battery investment have to rise 209 00:11:45,240 --> 00:11:45,840 Speaker 1: that much. 210 00:11:46,160 --> 00:11:48,080 Speaker 3: Well, if we don't build batteries, we're not going to 211 00:11:48,080 --> 00:11:50,560 Speaker 3: be able to use all this solar and wind that 212 00:11:50,600 --> 00:11:54,719 Speaker 3: we're building, particularly all this solar. The renewables build out 213 00:11:54,800 --> 00:12:00,960 Speaker 3: relies on making the way that we use and store 214 00:12:01,440 --> 00:12:06,920 Speaker 3: and sometimes even catail electricity better and more flexible because 215 00:12:06,960 --> 00:12:09,720 Speaker 3: solar and wind do generate only when the resource is there. 216 00:12:09,920 --> 00:12:13,200 Speaker 3: That's a big difference between yesterday's power system and the 217 00:12:13,240 --> 00:12:18,320 Speaker 3: future power system that actually we can make sustainable and 218 00:12:18,360 --> 00:12:21,640 Speaker 3: we have to move our demand to when there is 219 00:12:21,760 --> 00:12:24,240 Speaker 3: electricity available. Batteries are one way of doing it. It's 220 00:12:24,280 --> 00:12:27,120 Speaker 3: not the only way, but we definitely need to build batteries. 221 00:12:27,400 --> 00:12:30,920 Speaker 1: Well. Wind has problems, as we've seen, the industry is 222 00:12:30,960 --> 00:12:33,880 Speaker 1: kind of struggling right now, but solar is cheap and 223 00:12:33,960 --> 00:12:38,320 Speaker 1: clearly getting deployed much much faster. Could we just use 224 00:12:38,520 --> 00:12:41,839 Speaker 1: batteries to maximize solar and not really worry that much 225 00:12:41,840 --> 00:12:42,679 Speaker 1: about wind. 226 00:12:42,840 --> 00:12:45,959 Speaker 3: In parts of the world that will work. So if 227 00:12:45,960 --> 00:12:49,320 Speaker 3: you're near the equator, you do pretty regularly get sunshine 228 00:12:49,360 --> 00:12:53,200 Speaker 3: every day, but even there there are weeks where there's 229 00:12:53,280 --> 00:12:57,040 Speaker 3: very little sun and I think that will drain even 230 00:12:57,320 --> 00:13:00,080 Speaker 3: the biggest battery. And the other thing is if if 231 00:13:00,080 --> 00:13:02,800 Speaker 3: you're just looking at tripling capacity, wind does just generate 232 00:13:02,840 --> 00:13:05,880 Speaker 3: more power, more electricity than solar. So it would be 233 00:13:05,960 --> 00:13:08,720 Speaker 3: really good to have a diverse portfolio of clean energy 234 00:13:08,760 --> 00:13:10,520 Speaker 3: sources almost wherever you are. 235 00:13:10,920 --> 00:13:13,520 Speaker 1: Energy security is another issue that has come to the forefront, 236 00:13:13,679 --> 00:13:17,240 Speaker 1: especially in the last few years with wars, with volatile 237 00:13:17,280 --> 00:13:21,840 Speaker 1: fossil fuel prices, with reliability of supply, and a lot 238 00:13:21,880 --> 00:13:24,560 Speaker 1: of conversation going into COP twenty eight is going to 239 00:13:24,640 --> 00:13:27,560 Speaker 1: be about well, we need to triple renewable energy, but 240 00:13:27,720 --> 00:13:32,760 Speaker 1: also make sure that we are energy secure. So what 241 00:13:32,800 --> 00:13:36,520 Speaker 1: does it mean just from a renewable perspective to try 242 00:13:36,600 --> 00:13:39,280 Speaker 1: and make supply more secure. 243 00:13:39,840 --> 00:13:43,319 Speaker 3: I think fundamentally renewables build is always going to make 244 00:13:43,360 --> 00:13:48,720 Speaker 3: supply more secure, because if you've got solar wind on 245 00:13:48,760 --> 00:13:53,680 Speaker 3: your land, that doesn't go away if you have problems 246 00:13:53,720 --> 00:13:56,520 Speaker 3: with other stuff coming in. However, there's also a lot 247 00:13:56,559 --> 00:13:59,440 Speaker 3: of talk about supply chains, so manufacturing your own solar panels, 248 00:13:59,480 --> 00:14:02,280 Speaker 3: manufacturing own wind turbines, and there is a lot of 249 00:14:02,280 --> 00:14:05,520 Speaker 3: investment going into this. The US Inflation of Adaption Act 250 00:14:06,240 --> 00:14:10,400 Speaker 3: makes it very attractive to manufacture solar modules in the States. 251 00:14:11,240 --> 00:14:13,960 Speaker 3: India's doing something somewhat similar, bit a bit less generous, 252 00:14:14,679 --> 00:14:18,120 Speaker 3: and it's possible that Europe will put some money into 253 00:14:18,120 --> 00:14:20,600 Speaker 3: factories as well. And in fact we estimate that the 254 00:14:20,640 --> 00:14:24,720 Speaker 3: global supply chain for wind, solar and batteries is probably 255 00:14:24,840 --> 00:14:27,880 Speaker 3: invested enough, at least within near term, there are enough 256 00:14:27,920 --> 00:14:33,440 Speaker 3: factories out there to supply the tripling renewables future with like. 257 00:14:33,440 --> 00:14:37,640 Speaker 1: Minor tweaks, they're not that many things on which we 258 00:14:37,680 --> 00:14:39,800 Speaker 1: can say, well, we are on track for net zero. 259 00:14:39,960 --> 00:14:43,360 Speaker 1: It's interesting that manufacturing capacity wise, it seems like we 260 00:14:43,400 --> 00:14:47,720 Speaker 1: are quite there. It's more really deploying all that capacity 261 00:14:47,760 --> 00:14:48,520 Speaker 1: that's sitting. 262 00:14:48,720 --> 00:14:53,440 Speaker 3: Definitely, the bottlenecks are all deployment, honestly, and it's not 263 00:14:53,640 --> 00:14:58,280 Speaker 3: usually even economic barriers. It's usually things like grid and 264 00:14:58,400 --> 00:15:02,400 Speaker 3: land and supply and getting long term security in place. 265 00:15:02,680 --> 00:15:07,000 Speaker 3: It's things that potentially governments can debottom. 266 00:15:06,440 --> 00:15:17,520 Speaker 1: That after the break we get into the og of 267 00:15:17,600 --> 00:15:28,360 Speaker 1: renewable energy hydropower. Now we've spent a lot of time 268 00:15:28,400 --> 00:15:30,800 Speaker 1: talking about a wind and solar for very good reason. 269 00:15:31,200 --> 00:15:35,320 Speaker 1: But until recently, the source of renewable energy that made 270 00:15:35,720 --> 00:15:40,760 Speaker 1: for the greatest supply of renewable power was hydro. Does 271 00:15:40,840 --> 00:15:44,520 Speaker 1: hydro feature in any way in this goal to reach 272 00:15:44,600 --> 00:15:45,960 Speaker 1: tripling of renewable energy? 273 00:15:46,160 --> 00:15:49,200 Speaker 3: So I think the structure of the target probably doesn't 274 00:15:49,240 --> 00:15:52,920 Speaker 3: benefit hydro, particularly because hydro has a high capacity vector. 275 00:15:54,160 --> 00:15:58,040 Speaker 3: It's clearly advantageous for countries that can build hydro to 276 00:15:58,080 --> 00:16:01,840 Speaker 3: add more hydro. My suspicion is though, that it will 277 00:16:01,880 --> 00:16:04,520 Speaker 3: not be a big part of the increase. Building new 278 00:16:04,600 --> 00:16:08,400 Speaker 3: hydro isn't trivial because you need a suitable place for it, 279 00:16:08,840 --> 00:16:12,200 Speaker 3: and most developed countries have already pretty much developed the 280 00:16:12,240 --> 00:16:15,400 Speaker 3: suitable resources that they have. A hydro is also quite 281 00:16:15,440 --> 00:16:18,400 Speaker 3: susceptible to drought. The regions that are heavily dependent on 282 00:16:18,520 --> 00:16:22,280 Speaker 3: hydro do sometimes have problems in drought. It's actually a 283 00:16:22,280 --> 00:16:25,160 Speaker 3: good compliment of solar because of course solar generates more 284 00:16:25,720 --> 00:16:27,520 Speaker 3: in those times of year, so it can help you 285 00:16:27,640 --> 00:16:30,560 Speaker 3: use the hydro to just balance the solar. But yes, 286 00:16:30,680 --> 00:16:33,720 Speaker 3: it's quite difficult for us to imagine that there will 287 00:16:33,720 --> 00:16:35,080 Speaker 3: be a huge hydro build out. 288 00:16:35,440 --> 00:16:38,600 Speaker 1: Are there other renewablelds that are meaningful in trying to 289 00:16:38,640 --> 00:16:41,520 Speaker 1: meet this tripling renewables capacity. 290 00:16:41,880 --> 00:16:45,400 Speaker 3: There aren't any that are quite as easy to scale 291 00:16:45,720 --> 00:16:48,520 Speaker 3: a solar wind than hydro. I mean, if you have 292 00:16:48,600 --> 00:16:53,080 Speaker 3: geothermal resources, then build geothermal power plants. That's really great, 293 00:16:53,600 --> 00:16:57,280 Speaker 3: And it's very unlikely that this statement will actually do 294 00:16:57,360 --> 00:17:01,200 Speaker 3: anything on nuclear. But nuclear is also an electricity source. 295 00:17:01,560 --> 00:17:04,160 Speaker 3: There are parts of the world that can probably usefully 296 00:17:04,200 --> 00:17:08,800 Speaker 3: build that. Otherwise there isn't really anything else that scales 297 00:17:08,800 --> 00:17:09,400 Speaker 3: in the same way. 298 00:17:09,880 --> 00:17:13,080 Speaker 1: There is, in fact, some discussion among a group of 299 00:17:13,119 --> 00:17:16,960 Speaker 1: countries sort of the Coalition of the Willing, that are 300 00:17:17,040 --> 00:17:19,000 Speaker 1: going to try and put out a goal for tripling 301 00:17:19,320 --> 00:17:23,840 Speaker 1: nuclear capacity by twenty fifty. So that may be the 302 00:17:23,880 --> 00:17:26,960 Speaker 1: best outcome that nuclear has had had a cop meeting 303 00:17:27,200 --> 00:17:31,240 Speaker 1: in forever. I think let's go back to tripling renewable energy, 304 00:17:31,400 --> 00:17:35,600 Speaker 1: even though the goal is tripling renewables globally. Do all 305 00:17:35,720 --> 00:17:38,160 Speaker 1: countries need to approach the target in the same way? 306 00:17:38,600 --> 00:17:41,680 Speaker 3: No, certainly not. Brazil, for example, already gets eighty five 307 00:17:41,720 --> 00:17:46,240 Speaker 3: percent of its electricity from renewables, mostly hydro, and so 308 00:17:46,400 --> 00:17:48,439 Speaker 3: it really makes no sense for Brazil to try and 309 00:17:48,440 --> 00:17:50,679 Speaker 3: triple it's when it was capacity it should focus on 310 00:17:50,680 --> 00:17:54,280 Speaker 3: the capnizing other parts of its economy instead. And then 311 00:17:54,320 --> 00:17:56,760 Speaker 3: there are parts like the Middle East and Africa, Sub 312 00:17:56,760 --> 00:18:00,680 Speaker 3: Saharan Africa, Southeast Asia and India is a really big 313 00:18:00,720 --> 00:18:05,879 Speaker 3: one where increasing renewables by more than a tripling is 314 00:18:05,920 --> 00:18:07,520 Speaker 3: not only required to get the role on track from 315 00:18:07,520 --> 00:18:10,800 Speaker 3: net zero, but it's probably also quite beneficial potentially for 316 00:18:10,840 --> 00:18:13,960 Speaker 3: bringing electricity to people who haven't had enough in the past, 317 00:18:14,440 --> 00:18:16,800 Speaker 3: and to leap frog over the need to build centralized 318 00:18:16,800 --> 00:18:21,600 Speaker 3: fossil fuel power plants. The market that is both expected 319 00:18:21,640 --> 00:18:24,280 Speaker 3: to triple renewables by twenty thirty and where that would 320 00:18:24,320 --> 00:18:27,160 Speaker 3: be really enough to be on a net zero pathway 321 00:18:27,280 --> 00:18:30,800 Speaker 3: is China. China is building huge amounts of solar and 322 00:18:30,880 --> 00:18:36,000 Speaker 3: wind and also batteries, and China is probably going to 323 00:18:36,040 --> 00:18:38,800 Speaker 3: be on a net zero pathway. The US and Europe 324 00:18:39,680 --> 00:18:43,200 Speaker 3: are not expected to triple renewables by twenty thirty. Europe 325 00:18:43,280 --> 00:18:47,440 Speaker 3: is actually more ambitious than tripling renewables, which is great. Obviously, 326 00:18:47,480 --> 00:18:51,479 Speaker 3: being ahead is fantastic. The US should speed up. I 327 00:18:51,480 --> 00:18:56,120 Speaker 3: also suspect that, particularly for Sub Saharan Africa, tripling renewables 328 00:18:56,160 --> 00:18:59,840 Speaker 3: is not a burden, but an opportunity, and richer countries 329 00:18:59,840 --> 00:19:02,920 Speaker 3: can certainly help with providing climate finance and making it 330 00:19:03,280 --> 00:19:05,840 Speaker 3: easier for these to deploy renewables. That should also help 331 00:19:05,880 --> 00:19:08,080 Speaker 3: them on the development path. It should not be considered 332 00:19:08,160 --> 00:19:10,240 Speaker 3: a thing that will help them back at this point. 333 00:19:10,880 --> 00:19:14,000 Speaker 1: And when big economies do invest in renewables, we can 334 00:19:14,040 --> 00:19:18,640 Speaker 1: see huge differences. So China obviously is the largest maker 335 00:19:19,000 --> 00:19:21,960 Speaker 1: of all these renewable technologies, but also the largest deployer 336 00:19:22,280 --> 00:19:26,119 Speaker 1: of renewables. Already, we had some reporting this year that 337 00:19:26,480 --> 00:19:30,520 Speaker 1: given the level of deployment in China, its emissions are 338 00:19:30,600 --> 00:19:34,440 Speaker 1: likely to peak this year, decline next year, and if 339 00:19:34,480 --> 00:19:39,119 Speaker 1: it continues that kind of renewable deployment just remain in 340 00:19:39,160 --> 00:19:43,720 Speaker 1: structural decrease after that. That's a goal as a country 341 00:19:43,720 --> 00:19:46,160 Speaker 1: that China had set in the UN that they will 342 00:19:46,200 --> 00:19:49,560 Speaker 1: peak their emissions before twenty thirty, and if these numbers 343 00:19:49,560 --> 00:19:52,000 Speaker 1: are correct, it could peak it as soon as twenty 344 00:19:52,040 --> 00:19:55,880 Speaker 1: twenty three. Now you raise the point that the US 345 00:19:56,280 --> 00:19:59,280 Speaker 1: is not going to be tripling renewable energy according to 346 00:19:59,359 --> 00:20:03,320 Speaker 1: the forecast have if the US went harder, that could 347 00:20:03,320 --> 00:20:04,320 Speaker 1: make a big difference. 348 00:20:04,560 --> 00:20:08,320 Speaker 3: That's true. The thing about the US is that since 349 00:20:08,359 --> 00:20:11,840 Speaker 3: the Inflation of Reduction Act has been published and brought 350 00:20:11,840 --> 00:20:16,040 Speaker 3: into law. It's like this car that has the accelerator 351 00:20:16,119 --> 00:20:18,760 Speaker 3: pressed down really hard, but it's also got the handbrake on. 352 00:20:19,680 --> 00:20:22,760 Speaker 3: The economics of renewables are fantastic, but it's a really 353 00:20:22,800 --> 00:20:25,840 Speaker 3: difficult business environment. It's hard to get permits, it's hard 354 00:20:25,880 --> 00:20:28,080 Speaker 3: to get grid, it's hard to build anything in America, 355 00:20:28,160 --> 00:20:31,960 Speaker 3: it seems like from afar. So what the US government 356 00:20:31,960 --> 00:20:36,040 Speaker 3: should focus on is removing bottlenecks. The economics are fantastic 357 00:20:36,600 --> 00:20:39,000 Speaker 3: and it should go, but it does need to speed up. 358 00:20:39,000 --> 00:20:41,920 Speaker 3: And our local analysts all look at the numbers and go, oh, 359 00:20:41,960 --> 00:20:44,080 Speaker 3: I don't think it's going to take off like a rocket. 360 00:20:44,440 --> 00:20:44,600 Speaker 2: Now. 361 00:20:44,600 --> 00:20:47,679 Speaker 1: We've talked about tripling renewable energy because that's going to 362 00:20:47,720 --> 00:20:50,080 Speaker 1: be one of the things that will get signed off 363 00:20:50,119 --> 00:20:53,440 Speaker 1: at COP twenty eight most likely. But there are a 364 00:20:53,480 --> 00:20:56,000 Speaker 1: few other things that are being talked about, and let's 365 00:20:56,040 --> 00:20:59,919 Speaker 1: just touch on them briefly. One is doubling energy efficiency. 366 00:21:00,080 --> 00:21:04,439 Speaker 1: It's kind of a no brainer. You can deploy solutions 367 00:21:04,440 --> 00:21:07,440 Speaker 1: that would use less energy but give you the same output, 368 00:21:08,119 --> 00:21:12,280 Speaker 1: and yet it's one that seems to not really be 369 00:21:13,080 --> 00:21:15,520 Speaker 1: the sexy solution people want to chase. 370 00:21:15,960 --> 00:21:20,040 Speaker 3: Efficiency is never sexy, and you generally don't get much 371 00:21:20,160 --> 00:21:23,720 Speaker 3: credit saving energy. I really hope that passes, though, because 372 00:21:23,880 --> 00:21:26,320 Speaker 3: the best sort of electricity to generate the sort that 373 00:21:26,320 --> 00:21:28,520 Speaker 3: you never even have to generate because you don't use it. 374 00:21:29,000 --> 00:21:32,720 Speaker 3: But it's obvious that it's not a splashy, sexy target 375 00:21:32,760 --> 00:21:34,359 Speaker 3: like tripling renewables capacity. 376 00:21:34,680 --> 00:21:38,480 Speaker 1: We have seen some movement, given volatility in energy prices 377 00:21:38,560 --> 00:21:42,639 Speaker 1: over the past few years, where industry and governments have 378 00:21:42,800 --> 00:21:46,000 Speaker 1: focused on trying to increase efficiency, but you're right, it's 379 00:21:46,080 --> 00:21:51,119 Speaker 1: just sort of the underused lever. Ultimately, would just those 380 00:21:51,160 --> 00:21:54,160 Speaker 1: two things do enough to get us to net zero 381 00:21:54,600 --> 00:21:57,480 Speaker 1: or do we also have to have some form of 382 00:21:57,520 --> 00:21:59,960 Speaker 1: agreement to reduce fossil fuel. 383 00:22:01,160 --> 00:22:04,720 Speaker 3: That's a very good question. I think that to get 384 00:22:04,760 --> 00:22:08,800 Speaker 3: to actual net zero we have to not just decarbonize power, 385 00:22:09,600 --> 00:22:12,480 Speaker 3: which is as we've discussed, the easy bit. We've also 386 00:22:12,640 --> 00:22:18,119 Speaker 3: got to decarbonize shipping and transport and agriculture and aviation 387 00:22:19,160 --> 00:22:22,840 Speaker 3: and industry, and all of those are harder. Yes, we 388 00:22:22,920 --> 00:22:25,840 Speaker 3: can leave the bulk of that to be on twenty thirty, 389 00:22:25,920 --> 00:22:28,679 Speaker 3: at which point we'll have loads of cheap and clean electricity. 390 00:22:29,359 --> 00:22:32,359 Speaker 3: But we've got to start setting the pathway now to 391 00:22:32,480 --> 00:22:38,560 Speaker 3: do so. So preparations for decarbonizing industry, transport, aviation, agriculture 392 00:22:38,600 --> 00:22:40,520 Speaker 3: are really important to this point. 393 00:22:40,720 --> 00:22:43,080 Speaker 1: And since we talked earlier in the year about solar 394 00:22:43,400 --> 00:22:45,359 Speaker 1: you have finished and a new edition of your book 395 00:22:45,440 --> 00:22:47,879 Speaker 1: is coming out. What were the biggest updates? 396 00:22:48,240 --> 00:22:51,040 Speaker 3: So my book is called Solar Power Finance without the Jargon, 397 00:22:51,480 --> 00:22:54,399 Speaker 3: and the first edition was published in twenty nineteen, and 398 00:22:54,440 --> 00:22:56,520 Speaker 3: it's meant to explain to people who may be studied 399 00:22:56,520 --> 00:23:00,000 Speaker 3: stem more humanities what you need to know about finance 400 00:23:00,160 --> 00:23:03,600 Speaker 3: to work in manewables. Back in twenty nineteen, I think 401 00:23:03,760 --> 00:23:06,600 Speaker 3: I was relatively pessimistic about batteries. I sort of said, 402 00:23:06,600 --> 00:23:09,080 Speaker 3: oh yeah, and there will also be batteries. But now 403 00:23:09,119 --> 00:23:11,920 Speaker 3: it's actually pretty obvious that batteries are going to be 404 00:23:11,960 --> 00:23:14,760 Speaker 3: a huge part of the solution. And over eighty percent 405 00:23:14,960 --> 00:23:18,880 Speaker 3: of home solar systems in some European markets have batteries now, 406 00:23:19,119 --> 00:23:21,800 Speaker 3: so they're really playing a part in moving that daytime 407 00:23:21,880 --> 00:23:25,520 Speaker 3: power to the evening. Another thing is hydrogen. Now, hydrogen 408 00:23:25,600 --> 00:23:27,959 Speaker 3: is not good for everything. It's not as good as 409 00:23:27,960 --> 00:23:31,240 Speaker 3: heat pumps for home heating and it's not a silver bullet, 410 00:23:31,359 --> 00:23:35,360 Speaker 3: but it's something that is potentially a way of storing 411 00:23:35,440 --> 00:23:38,680 Speaker 3: power from somewhere to winter. And I think that it's 412 00:23:38,960 --> 00:23:41,240 Speaker 3: probably going to be something that we use to de 413 00:23:41,280 --> 00:23:46,600 Speaker 3: carbonize steel and also to run certain power plants when 414 00:23:46,640 --> 00:23:48,439 Speaker 3: there is no sun and wind for a week and 415 00:23:48,480 --> 00:23:50,159 Speaker 3: we don't really have many other ideas of what to 416 00:23:50,200 --> 00:23:52,879 Speaker 3: do about that. So governments are investing very heavily in 417 00:23:52,880 --> 00:23:56,320 Speaker 3: electoralizer facilities. So hydrogen is going to be a thing, 418 00:23:56,720 --> 00:23:58,600 Speaker 3: and I hope it works, or I hope if it 419 00:23:58,600 --> 00:23:59,919 Speaker 3: doesn't work, it's because we had a better way. 420 00:24:00,600 --> 00:24:02,919 Speaker 1: Now, on a day to day basis, you are looking 421 00:24:03,119 --> 00:24:06,440 Speaker 1: at the renewable energy sector. You're looking at the clients 422 00:24:06,440 --> 00:24:10,680 Speaker 1: who are interested in deploying renewable energy. But how much 423 00:24:10,720 --> 00:24:14,359 Speaker 1: attention do you pay to cop does that really translate 424 00:24:14,480 --> 00:24:17,359 Speaker 1: into business conversation for me? 425 00:24:17,640 --> 00:24:23,080 Speaker 3: Now, I think that the business of renewables is actually 426 00:24:23,119 --> 00:24:24,800 Speaker 3: much too busy to look at these sort of high 427 00:24:24,880 --> 00:24:27,760 Speaker 3: level conversations which tend to take at least five to 428 00:24:27,840 --> 00:24:31,720 Speaker 3: ten years to result in something actionable. Of course, that's 429 00:24:31,760 --> 00:24:34,359 Speaker 3: the kind of timeframe that ultimately, as a species we 430 00:24:34,359 --> 00:24:36,960 Speaker 3: should be looking at, But as an individual and investor 431 00:24:37,560 --> 00:24:39,919 Speaker 3: investors are my clients anyway that you're looking for the 432 00:24:39,960 --> 00:24:42,960 Speaker 3: next market to hit, the sort of projects to invest in, 433 00:24:44,160 --> 00:24:47,159 Speaker 3: what's going to happen with cannibalization. I'm very focused on 434 00:24:47,200 --> 00:24:49,600 Speaker 3: trying to forecast price for solo right now, which is 435 00:24:49,640 --> 00:24:52,280 Speaker 3: really difficult, and all of those are much shorter term. 436 00:24:52,800 --> 00:24:56,160 Speaker 3: But the cop meetings are important to set a path. 437 00:24:56,560 --> 00:24:59,680 Speaker 3: They give companies signals like if I build a coal plant, 438 00:24:59,720 --> 00:25:01,639 Speaker 3: there's a very good chance there'll be a carbon tax 439 00:25:01,640 --> 00:25:03,760 Speaker 3: on that could plans, So maybe I shouldn't do that 440 00:25:03,760 --> 00:25:06,120 Speaker 3: because it will be a strand, the dosset and so 441 00:25:06,160 --> 00:25:08,080 Speaker 3: they have a huge amounts of value. 442 00:25:08,640 --> 00:25:11,040 Speaker 1: That was a lot of numbers, but I'm glad you 443 00:25:11,080 --> 00:25:14,920 Speaker 1: could make sense of what is a big, big target. 444 00:25:15,040 --> 00:25:25,439 Speaker 4: Thank you Jenny, Thank you Akschat.
