“Knives Out meets Greta Thunberg.”
Renewable energy exec, Thomás Sarao, is found gently circling in wide revolutions, skewered by his own wind turbine. It’s the day after a violent storm on an offshore wind farm in the Atlantic and everyone’s been locked in for the night. Everyone except one terrified Afghani cleaner.
Good Energy uses a murder mystery narrative (and a touch of humour) to get right to the rotten heart of the renewables industry. This is a world we’ve never seen before, a world full of bright young things fighting for a better future. It’s an industry universally recognised as vital to our survival; one people want to understand. Like Suits or The Flight Attendant we’ll lift the lid on a mysterious realm of rural wind farms, offshore graft, workshop gossip, gender politics and greenwashed investment deals.
