Christina Rentell, Research Lead at Aurora Energy Research, and Daniel Garasa Sagardoy, Energy Engineer and Solar Analyst at Wood Mackenzie, dive into the aftermath of Spain's major blackout. They discuss the shift to a 'safe mode' for grid operation, the challenges posed by solar intermittency, and the role of distributed assets. The conversation also touches on the politicization of the incident, the need for localized voltage services, and the outlook for batteries in achieving grid stability. Insightful and thought-provoking, this discussion sheds light on future energy resilience.
