inspiratia Season 10 Episode 13

In this week’s episode of Energy Transition Today, we start with the most important energy transition news of the week, nay the year, actor Samuel L Jackson’s partnership with Vattenfall for seaweed crisps.


We move on to financing updates over the past seven days, starting with an exclusive on Elements Green’s debt package for its 360MW battery project in the UK, Sonnedix’s €2 billion debt consolidation, DESNZ’s price caps for renewable technologies under the upcoming AR7 auction and planning consent for, what is set to be, UK’s first floating offshore wind farm.


For the deeper dives, we touch on the ongoing tensions between the board of Gore Street Storage Fund and a couple of its investors as well as well as Smart Pension UK’s investment in Octopus’ UK renewables portfolio.
We end on a breakdown of the European Commission’s proposed budget for 2028-2034 and the European Union’s LNG deal with the US.
