A new Energy Industry report has been uploaded to the Classroom section (6.2 - Industry Reports). This report examines the growing gap between copper supply and demand, driven by AI data centers, renewable energy grids, and military spending, while existing mines age and new deposits become increasingly rare and difficult to develop.

A new Career report has been uploaded to the Classroom section (6.3 - Career Reports). This Q&A guide includes common questions about electricity grids. Very useful for preparing for job interviews or confidently answering client questions as an energy consultant. For example:

A new Energy Industry report has been uploaded to the Classroom section (6.2 - Industry Reports). This report analyses the European Union's new top-down electricity grid reinforcement approach to coordinating cross-border energy infrastructure. The report examines how the EU plans to address costly grid bottlenecks that could reach €26 billion annually by 2030, and the shift from decentralized national planning to centralized coordination.

A new report has been uploaded in the Classroom section (6.2 - Industry Reports). The report focuses on Chinese companies that manufacture solar Photovoltaics. These companies are now expanding into the battery storage business. So far, they were only selling/manufacturing solar Photovoltaics. However, battery storage is exponentially growing in China and globally. The opportunities are massive for profitability. Chinese solar panel makers like Longi, Trinasolar, and JinkoSolar have made billions selling solar Panels. Solar power has grown so fast that electricity grids can't handle all the electricity being produced during sunny hours. The demand for battery storage is growing exponentially. So, these companies are now moving into combined solar-and-battery systems. So, they keep the solar business, but they also add battery development. This leads to cost reductions and increases their profitability. For the full analysis, visit Classroom → 6.2 Industry Reports.
