Foresight-Driven Innovation for a Renewable Energy Co-op
Overview
What this challenge is about.
You are a foresight analyst for WindFolk. Develop three alternative futures for the Danish energy market in 2030 (e.g., 'Green Grid', 'Tech Fragmentation', 'Policy Stagnation'). For each, assess the economic and operational case for battery storage. Recommend a flexible investment pathway that allows WindFolk to adjust as the future unfolds. Deliver a foresight report with scenarios, financial projections, and a decision tree. Success means the board can decide on a pilot project with confidence.
