In this episode of the Energy News Beat Daily Standup, the host, Stuart Turley discusses a range of energy-related topics, including the Dutch government's decision to scale back offshore wind projects to protect fisheries, the EU's reliance on Chinese green energy technology, and the implications for global power dynamics.
