Consultants Find Germany in Better Shape than U.S. to Integrate Renewables

Mark Hand, senior editor at SNL Energy, recently conducted an interview with Chris Vlahoplus, partner and clean tech & sustainability practice lead at ScottMadden, and John Pang, partner at ScottMadden.

In September, ScottMadden and the Solar Electric Power Association (SEPA) led U.S. energy industry officials to Germany on a fact-finding mission to learn about the country’s energy transition, including its plans to add greater amounts of renewable energy capacity. This article presents top findings and insights learned from the trip.
