Today, our guest is Dave Smith, a veteran energy consultant with decades of experience across the UK, New Zealand, and Australia. We discuss the profound changes in the energy sector, from deregulation in the 80s and 90s to the current challenges of integrating renewable energy into the grid. Dave shares his insights on the evolving energy market, the rise of distributed energy resources like solar and batteries, and the potential of electric vehicles (EVs) to revolutionise energy storage and grid stability. The conversation also explores how market designs and tariffs must adapt to support this transition, ensuring consumers can fully leverage new technologies while maintaining grid reliability.
