1) The pipeline

• 50 GWAC / year

• Move to storage and wind

2) Market build

• 2021 a potential record year

• Wind yet to take off

• Size and scale

3) Short term challenges

• Diminishing network capacity

• CAPEX going up

• Revenue going down

4) Medium term opportunities

• Batteries

• Transmission
