The Joint Venture podcast - PPAs vs merchant exposure and Saudi Arabia's energy transition

The Joint Venture: inspiratia insights
The team looks over the past week of news and give their views on market trends in the energy sector

In this episode, we look over the past week's news, including BlackRock's fourth Global Renewable Power Fund, progress on UK deals from Vattenfall and DIF Capital Partners, and how BP and Orsted have moved to end the long-running dispute of Hornsea 4. 

We weigh up the pros and cons of opting for merchant operations versus the relative certainty of a PPA in today's power market and discuss what risks can affect the long-term operations of ever-growing wind turbines. 

Also in this episode, we take a data-driven look at where renewable and sustainable infrastructure investment is being spent in Saudi Arabia and discuss if the second-biggest oil producer in the world can really go green.
