The beginning of the end for centralised generation?
UBS predicts that 50GW of coal and gas-fired generation will need to be sacrificed in the next four years to ensure that the remaining fossil fuel plants can make money. The centralised generation model is in decline, but will the energy dinosaurs know how to react? There’s a lesson here for Australian utilities.
