TSA Riley Claims, Disputes and Expert Witness reposted this
The push for carbon neutrality by 2050 has led to a surge in renewable energy investments. However, as these projects are complex, large-scale and operate in highly regulated environments, disputes are bound to arise. In this article, Angelos Markou, explores the most common renewable energy technologies, typical causes of disputes and dispute resolution methods, together with notable cases. Key Highlights: - Overview of hydroelectric, wind, solar and waste-to-energy technologies. - Common causes of disputes: construction, technology, weather, investors-states and joint ventures. - Dispute resolution methods: arbitration, litigation and alternative dispute resolution (ADR).

Great read Angelos
Academic topic for discussion: PUMPED STORAGE RESERVOIRS (NORWAY): - Skjerstad fjord (25 TWh) - Mjøsa (17,6 TWh) - Sandsfjorden (8,1 TWh) - Tingvollfjorden (4,1 TWh) - Lysefjorden (3,6 TWh) - Beitstadsfjorden (3,2 TWh) - Tinnsjø (2,8 TWh) - Hornindalsvatnet (2,6 TWh) - Førdefjorden (2,4 TWh) - Tromsø (2,5 TWh) - Tyrifjorden (1,9 TWh) - Salsvatnet (1,6 TWh) - Fyresvatn (1,5 TWh) - Suldalsvatnet (1,5 TWh) - Lundevatnet (1 TWh) - Less-Than-1-TWh-Reservoirs (3,8 TWh) Grand Total: 83,2 TWh . Downloadable (more detailed) table: https://lnkd.in/dEhEdniu . BACKGROUND: - Large quantities of electric energy can be stored in norwegian fjords (since they are very deep): - Wikipedia(Pumped Storage): https://lnkd.in/gTHZrjj . (FJORDS) Time-dependent wind/sun --> --> Water pumping (fjord --> sea) --> Height diff (fjord<-->sea) --> Hydropower (Or) (sea --> fjord) (Or) (upstream non-saline water --> fjord) --> "On-demand wind/solar electricity" . (LAKES) Time-dependent wind/sun --> --> Water pumping (lake --> downstream river) --> Height diff (upstream river <--> lake) --> Hydropower (upstream river --> lake) --> "On-demand wind/solar electricity" . Nuclear power (off-peak hours)--> (Same as above) "Nuclear power" (peak hours)(indirectly)
Very informative Angelos Markou. Thank you
