The transition to a future clean energy system hinges on clean energy technology supply chains. Supply chain delays are being experienced across the globe, particularly for grid equipment from transformers to HVDC systems. Ensuring adequate manufacturing capacity for clean energy technologies and particularly grid technologies is therefore a crucial enabler for energy transition. Strategies exist to scale up manufacturing capacity investments at speed however they require next generation collaboration, planning and policy making. They also require new and innovative business models, as well as careful consideration on the benefits of standardization. Panelists at this session will share opportunities and challenges associated with alleviating grid supply chain bottlenecks.
