In this episode, Paul unpacks how 24/7 hourly matching is becoming something of a new standard for corporate renewable energy procurement. This temporal strategy is having an impact on not just how large companies are buying power, but also for federal organizations, hydrogen developers, and, frankly, just about anyone in the renewable procurement market.
Paul discusses the impact of 24/7 hourly matching, it's potential drawbacks ... and even courts a bit of controversy by suggesting that maybe this strategy isn't the best one for all companies.
