Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

De-risking offshore wind could put Philippines ahead in clean energy race: GWEC’s Ann Francisco
Q: What role does concessional finance play in lowering the cost of capital for offshore wind projects?
Concessional finance from multilaterals lowers the baseline cost of capital, which can crowd in local banks and reduce financing costs, thereby lowering levelized cost of energy and accelerating project development.
De-risking offshore wind could put Philippines ahead in clean energy race: GWEC’s Ann Francisco
Q: What actions have been most critical to de-risk offshore wind investment in the Philippines?
Key actions include clarifying and strengthening the payment framework, setting robust lender protections like step-in rights, establishing project qualification standards, and creating a blended finance ecosystem that attracts multilaterals and catalyzes private sector participation.
De-risking offshore wind could put Philippines ahead in clean energy race: GWEC’s Ann Francisco
Q: Is offshore wind viable in typhoon-prone Philippines, and what gives you confidence in its resilience?
I believe it is viable because other markets with extreme weather have deployed typhoon-resilient turbines and ongoing design improvements in turbine and foundation engineering allow for adaptation to local conditions, ensuring the design reflects the country's profile.
‘Comedy can say the elephant in the room’: Why climate action needs a sense of humour
Q: Has telling climate jokes changed your life at all?
Yes; creating climate-focused material helped him process climate dread, stay motivated, and communicate personal accountability by sharing his own experiences and hypocrisies rather than lecturing the audience.
‘Comedy can say the elephant in the room’: Why climate action needs a sense of humour
Q: So first question for you, Stuart, is your job of selling climate comedy getting harder in the current climate?
Stuart explains it depends on context; while some audiences and political climates have shifted, reframing messages into relatable humor and reducing the sense of doom can make conversations with audiences more receptive, especially in corporate and policy settings.
