While energy affordability emerging as a flashpoint both within California and beyond, willingness to pay for clean energy is increasingly uncertain even in states with robust clean energy policies. With an ever-upward-ratcheting carbon price combining with expensive options for decarbonizing the overnight, the extent of political commitment to carbon pricing has major implications for the evolution of CAISO’s supply stack, impacting the economics of storage, renewable fuels, and wind generation.
In this webinar, Dr. Brent Nelson, Managing Director of Markets and Strategy for Ascend Analytics, was joined by Robert LaFaso, Director of Forecasting and Valuation, and Connor Donovan, Lead CAISO Analyst, discuss Ascend’s latest CAISO forecast release and expectations for policy evolution in California, along with the implications and opportunities for generators, investors, LSEs, and corporates.
