For decades, the world of energy has developed around fairly stable chains of actors within which the roles were clear and well distributed. In recent years, cities and local authorities have tried to invite themselves among the historical actors. Why this movement? What are cities […]
The continuity of a transmission network (TSO) and a distribution network (DSO) is obvious, both for the electrons and for us, observers. However, for technical, organizational and market reasons, these networks have been developed separately and managed by different entities. My initial observation allows us […]
The European energy transition, in progress in almost all countries, is part of the contribution of the Old Continent to the fight against climate change. The reduction of greenhouse gas emissions, CO2 first, is at the center of the concerns. Changing the mix of power […]
Solar photovoltaic is today the third source of renewable electricity after hydroelectricity and wind power. It accounts for around 1.5% of global electricity production and more than 3% of European production. In Europe, in 2016 the installed capacity of photovoltaic panels exceeded 100GW and the […]
The energy transition is a disruptive evolution everyone sees clearly today. Its technological, business, economic and regulatory aspects are often debated and commented. But what about the human aspects and, more particularly, would it not have an impact on the skills needs by energy companies? […]
An energy transition, i.e. a significant change in the energy mix, considered most often in a country, is only relevant if it significantly improves one of the expected performances of energy systems and markets: the cost of energy, its availability, the energy independence of the […]
Gas is one of the world’s leading energy sources. It is heavily used to produce electricity. Indeed, 36% of natural gas is consumed to produce electricity, against 31% for residential applications (cooking, heating) and 19% for industrial applications. The size of gas power or heat […]
In many circumstances, the development of renewable energies is presented as a fundamental pillar of the energy transition. The professional associations representing the players in the wind and solar sectors have gained strength and are fighting a fierce battle for the development of the sectors […]
RTE, the French TSO, has just published 5 energy transition scenarios to help policymakers set a framework for the French energy policy. These are 5 more scenarios. But what do they provide to deciders better than the previous ones? Why precedents have not put in […]
For many consumers addressing the challenges of energy efficiency or development of local energy production, the question of investment is central. Residential customers do not always have the necessary funds, the industry prioritizes investments in the production tool, public customers seek to reduce their expenses […]
