Manage episode 304688010 series 2862389
In recent months, many countries have experienced episodes of disruptive energy supply shortage due to various causes, either technically or structurally. China's power outages across many regions have hit the global supply chains. In response, the Chinese government enacts a new policy which allows coal-fired power generators to charge above the benchmark price that is set up by central regulator. The policy move is a step forward to pursue a market-based pricing mechanism of electricity despite of the continued restrictions on the power trading. How does this policy measure impact the power supply in the short term and decarbonization progress of power sector in the long term? REEI's two researchers discusses in detail in this episode.
