Milad Mousavian - Fossil-based Powerplants seem to be more profitable than they actually are!
In a technological society, our instincts for "what matters" are often poor. While technical details in esoteric formulas are only exciting to some of us, the consequences of getting those details wrong can (and often do) affect all of us. In this talk Milad Mousavian talks about his recent report with Bruce Robertson on the LCOE coefficient, which affects the allocation of billions of dollars of capital in energy markets, and how the world has been getting this coefficient wrong in highly consequential ways. Their report: https://ieefa.org/ieefa-gas-power-plants-assuming-a-constant-capacity-factor-are-being-financially-overvalued/ This video was recorded as part of a metauni event (https://metauni.org/posts/events/events).
