Our sector specialists can help clients resolve specific issues

What will be the impact of solar PV on the German daily demand profile? Will this reduce the need for flexible generation or increase it?
Will renewable penetration lead to reduced capacity factors for CCGTs in the stack? How will they respond to this revenue pressure?
Which markets require renewable generators to pay the cost of their intermittency? How are these regulations evolving as intermittent generation increases?
Market coupling is getting closer all the time – how will this affect prices in the currently separate markets? Which generating plants will gain from this? Which companies?
When will capacity margins begin to tighten again in the US and drive investment in new generation?
How will action by the EPA affect coal retirements in the US? Which regions will feel this the most?
What are the implications of the UK carbon reduction target for the power sector? How much renewable build would be needed to meet the obligation?
