Renewable Energy Markets: What Europe can learn from California - a podcast by The smarter E

Very few western countries are feeling the effects of the climate change on a very immediate every day basis. Which makes it quite difficult to advocate for a  change in  behaviour and policies amongst the constituents, if the effet is either years or miles away. But not in California though: For several years now, California has made the world headlines with dramatic forest fires, only parallel by Australia. Which is maybe one of the many reasons that it is also on the forefront of making an energy transion happen. In that regard California can almost be seen as a model region for many other countries. So what can other regions learn from the example of California when it comes to counter measures? And which of the steps that California has put into action are already having an effect? We talk about this with Bernadette del Chiaro, Executive Director of the California Solar & Storage Association (CALSSA).
