Panel Discussion
Power price cannibalization and curtailment are increasingly common for onshore renewable energy projects in key US markets like CAISO, ERCOT and MISO. The impacts are already evident in major US markets where renewable energy penetration levels exceed system demand on a more frequent basis. On top of this, rising renewables is leading to more curtailment both for economic reasons and due to system congestion. How are developers rethinking the revenue streams for their projects in this changing environment? What role do power purchase agreements play in a market with more-frequent negative power prices? What do future natural gas prices mean for the viability of these projects and how does exposure to specific power nodes affect site selection or asset value? How do these various factors around revenue impact equity owners in a higher-interest rate environment?
