What

(On Demand) The Future of Power: The road to a carbon neutral society

Where

On-Demand

When

Do you know how the power markets in the Nordics and Northern Europe are playing a crucial role in shaping the energy landscape of the region?

From renewable energy sources to innovative technologies, these markets are constantly evolving to meet the growing demand for sustainable energy solutions.

What you will gain insights on:

  • The long-run marginal costs associated with renewable power production, energy storage, hydrogen production, and hydrogen-fired power plants. 
  • Perspectives on the EUA market and propose an alternative CO2 price that is better aligned with Europe's goal of becoming climate-neutral by 2050. 
  • How technologies such as hydrogen and other Power-to-X will play an increasingly significant role in the power markets. 
  • How long-term consumption growth will be dampened by rising power prices, which must eventually be high enough for investments in new power generation to achieve satisfactory profitability. 
  • The growth of offshore wind power due to government subsidies, and the need to operate without these in the long run.
