Energy Insiders Podcast: Why batteries are the answer to nearly everything

We talk to Jeff Monday from Fluence on the fall in battery costs and the role it can play in taming data centre demand, and Adam Cameron from SA Power Networks on why there will be no transition without the “flexibility” revolution in the home.

Energy Insiders is brought to you by Pylon and Evergen.
