Each episode examines a specific mechanism — from EU ETS permit prices to the impact of US Inflation Reduction Act subsidies on corporate balance sheets — and traces how these policies ripple through energy markets, manufacturing, and consumer prices. Lucas brings the numbers and institutional context (how the World Bank's carbon pricing dashboard works, what the Social Cost of Carbon actually measures), while Luna pushes for the practical implications: does a €50 carbon tax actually change behavior? What happens when a steel plant in Germany faces both emission costs and Chinese competition? The show serves investors, policy analysts, and business leaders who need to understand climate-related financial risk without the activism or greenwashing. Listeners walk away able to parse a carbon offset market, evaluate a company's net-zero roadmap, and spot the difference between a real price signal and a political slogan. How do you put a number on a ton of carbon — and who pays when that number is wrong? #CarbonPricing #GreenPolicy #SustainabilityCosts #EUETS #Infla…","last_synced_at":"2026-07-19T06:19:03.667812+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/climate-economics-with-fexingo-carbon-pricing-green-policy-and-sustainability-costs-7871781"},"episode":{"title":"How Solar Panel Recycling Is Becoming a Billion-Dollar Business","slug":"how-solar-panel-recycling-is-becoming-a-billion-dollar-business","published_at":"2026-06-25T06:59:23+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/climate-economics-with-fexingo-carbon-pricing-green-policy-and-sustainability-costs-7871781/how-solar-panel-recycling-is-becoming-a-billion-dollar-business","show_page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/climate-economics-with-fexingo-carbon-pricing-green-policy-and-sustainability-costs-7871781","url":"https://audio.fexingo.com/business/climate-economics/episode-0072.mp3","audio_url":"https://audio.fexingo.com/business/climate-economics/episode-0072.mp3","summary":"By 2030, the world will have millions of tons of decommissioned solar panels. In this episode, Lucas and Luna explore the emerging economics of photovoltaic recycling — a market projected to hit $2.7 billion by 2030. They look at the current cost structure, the regulatory push in the European Union, and why companies like Veolia and First Solar are investing in recycling technology. They also discuss the tension between panel durability and recyclability, and whether the industry can solve the waste problem before it becomes a crisis. A focused look at the hidden end-of-life cost of the solar boom. #SolarPanelRecycling #PhotovoltaicWaste #CircularEconomy #CleanEnergyEconomics #Veolia #FirstSolar #EUWasteDirective #SolarPanelLifecycle #GreenTech #Economics #EnvironmentalEconomics #RecyclingEconomics #BillionDollarMarket #WasteManagement #SustainabilityPolicy #RenewableEnergy #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo","meta_description":"By 2030, the world will have millions of tons of decommissioned solar panels.
