Latest / Energy Economics with Fexingo: Oil Prices, Renewables, and the Cost of Power
The Hidden Cost of Grid Bottlenecks
Lucas and Luna examine how transmission constraints, not just fuel prices, are driving electricity costs in late 2026. With the S&P 500 reacting to oil spikes and natural gas hovering near three dollars, they look at why renewable energy projects stall despite falling solar module costs. The conversation centers on the physical limits of moving power from where it is made to where it is needed, using recent grid outage data and investment trends to explain the rising premium on transmission infrastructure.
