Power Struggle – Likely the Phrase of the Year for 2023!

  • Renewable power is likely to be supply constrained for the next decade at least, with the desire for it eclipsing availability, potentially driving costs higher.
  • The largest challenge, as a consequence, is likely to be hydrogen, as the lure of cheap power is driving investment ideas that are uneconomic without it.
  • The pressure on wind and solar is driving a much greater focus on alternatives, especially nuclear, but also further use of natural gas and more hydropower.
  • We focus on recycling and how the landscape may change because of lower polymer prices globally – polymer producers are likely to consolidate recycling.
  • Otherwise, we look at expectations for CCS in 2023 – lots more partnerships and arguments about carbon values, and we discuss outlooks for Bloom and Origin.
