Welcome Andrew Blakers, New Expert in the Clean Power Group- [an Energy Central Power Perspectives™ Expert Interview]
Clean power has been buzzing for years now, but it truly feels like as we move out of the pandemic and look at spending to spur the economy, create jobs, and protect us from the perils of climate change that the clean and renewable energy industry has renewed purpose, excitement, and momentum.
The Clean Power Group on Energy Central is, as such, frequently one of the most popular and passionate groups, and because of that enthusiasm I’m always excited to introduce a new member of the Network of Experts to the mix.
Today, I want the community to heartily welcome Andrew Blakers, a Professor of Engineering at the Australian National University, where he’s worked on solar technologies since the 1980s. Having seen the development of this sector, as well as been a key part of numerous inventions and developments in his own right, Andrew is not surprised by the recent progress in the solar sector—but rather he seems all the room we have to do more.
As a Clean Power Expert, Andrew will look to add his voice and expertise to the mix across the community, and that starts with today’s interview he agreed to do as a part of the Energy Central Power Perspectives ‘Welcome New Expert Interview Series.
