The energy industry is transforming. Clean energy is being incorporated into new generation plans – more and more stressing reliability as an important component. Renewable energy continues to expand as a source of electrical generation. But, intermittency and low capacity factors result in potential grid instability. New approaches including technological development will be key to a grid that is reliable, affordable, uses less water and — most importantly — contributes to slowing climate change. Can ESG evaluations help in providing investors transparency on energy projects?
