Here’s some interesting reading for the weekend.

A new report, ”The Transition Takes Hold” from Clean Energy Canada predicts that generation costs for large-scale solar power plants are expected to drop by a massive 57 per cent by 2025, with onshore and offshore wind expected to become 26 and 35 per cent cheaper, respectively.

This suggest that a tipping point could be reached with renewable power coming in cheaper than fossil fuels.

Should Chem Engineers in the oil and gas industries start to worry?
