"Tanya Cushman Highlights Statkraft's Challenges and Innovations in Renewable Energy Projects at Inter-Solar Conference"

Laurent Talbot, speaking at an event organized by the Inter-Solar Committee, discusses Statkraft's involvement in renewable energy and its challenges. Statkraft is a century-old state-owned Norwegian company specializing in hydropower but has expanded into wind, PV (photovoltaic), and storage projects globally over the past seven years. They have developed numerous projects worldwide including over 50 PV projects, 100 wind projects, and five storage initiatives. In Germany alone, they employ around 650 people with significant developments planned in wind PV and storage sectors. The German market anticipates a growth of about two gigawatts per year for battery systems as essential components of their energy infrastructure. Statkraft also plays a crucial role in providing market access for renewable resources via Power Purchase Agreements (PPAs) particularly under challenging conditions like merchant risks. Additionally, Laurent Talbot highlights ongoing issues such as ambiguous grid fees which need addressing to facilitate better project planning within hybrid auction systems that currently limit certain operational flexibilities like charging batteries from the grid. Overall, Talbot's talk underscores both optimism towards achieving sustainable goals and the complexities faced within this evolving sector.
