In Ep. 235, we welcome back to the show Tim Buckley, to review the updated facts of the #energytransition across Asia--with particular focus on the progress of China and India--and the opportunities that Australia has to support it. xenetwork.org/ets/episodes/e…

In Ep. 236, Jeff Rissman of Energy Innovation Policy & Technology LLC® joins us to walk through all the major sources of industrial greenhouse gas emissions, how they can be decarbonized, and which policies can accelerate their transitions. xenetwork.org/ets/episodes/e…

Why do governments continue to push nuclear power when it is the most expensive, risky, and slow way to generate power? In Ep. 237 (our fourth episode on nuclear power), author and professor Ramana tries to explain why. xenetwork.org/ets/episodes/e…

The outlook for energy transition in the US may feel bleak at the moment, but Europe continues to make significant progress. In Transition Show @[email protected] Ep. 238, energy expert Jan Rosenow Jan Rosenow joins us to discuss. xenetwork.org/ets/episodes/e…

In Ep. 239, mathematician Doyne Farmer of Oxford University explains why conventional economic modeling has failed to anticipate the actual speed of the energy transition, and why “complexity economics” can give us a much more accurate picture of it. xenetwork.org/ets/episodes/e…

We kick off the new year with a miniseries on the #energytransition in the UK. In Ep. 240, we speak with Adam Berman of Energy UK about some of the UK’s world-leading efforts to meet its decarbonization goals. xenetwork.org/ets/episodes/e…

In Ep. 241, we speak with Luke Ames Blackaby of Ofgem, the UK energy regulator, about how the agency supports the development of technologies that can help the UK evolve its energy systems to meet its decarbonization targets. Part 2 of a miniseries. xenetwork.org/ets/episodes/e…

In Ep. 242, Tim Gould of International Energy Agency returns to discuss the insights from their annual report, the World Energy Outlook, including the implications of fossil fuel demand peaking and renewables becoming the dominant source of electricity globally within 5 years. xenetwork.org/ets/episodes/e…

Heat pumps are one of the cheapest and most versatile ways of decarbonizing heating. In Ep. 243, heat pump policy expert Richard Lowes outlines how to design policies to encourage the adoption of heat pumps everywhere. xenetwork.org/ets/episodes/e…

In Ep. 244, Professor Mariana Mazzucato of University College London shares essential insights about what makes for effective, enduring, and equitable green industrial policy. xenetwork.org/ets/episodes/e…

In Ep. 245, Julian Leslie of National Energy System Operator rejoins us to discuss how Great Britain is developing a coordinated plan to evolve ALL of its energy networks toward net zero electricity by 2030 and complete decarbonization by 2050. xenetwork.org/ets/episodes/e…

In Ep. 246 we speak with @bowenchris The Hon. Matt Kean Tristan Edis and Alex Wonhas about how the Australian government is working with the grid power sector to plan and execute its #energytransition while maintaining system reliability. xenetwork.org/ets/episodes/e…

In Ep. 247, we continue our miniseries on Australia by exploring their innovations in pre-commercial technologies, deep DER integration, VPPs and microgrids, and passive building techniques. xenetwork.org/ets/episodes/e…

In Ep. 248, International Energy Agency analyst Heymi Bahar shares findings from their recent comprehensive report, “The Future of Geothermal Energy.” By 2050, geothermal could deliver as much power as the US and India combined consume today. xenetwork.org/ets/episodes/e…

In Ep. 249, we continue our miniseries on Australia xenetwork.org/ets/category/a… by featuring three researchers and entrepreneurs who are advancing solar technology R&D, including the “father of solar cells,” Martin Green. And it turns out CSP isn’t dead! xenetwork.org/ets/episodes/e…

In Ep. 250, Thane Gustafson rejoins us to discuss Russia’s failed opening to the West, how the sanctions against Russia have succeeded and failed, what Putin’s motivations in Ukraine are, and Russia's future as global energy transition efforts accelerate. xenetwork.org/ets/episodes/e…

We saved the best for last! In Ep. 251, we conclude our 6-part miniseries on Australia with a look at how, by 2027, South Australia Power Networks will operate the first gigawatt-scale grid in the world with a 100% variable renewable energy supply. xenetwork.org/ets/episodes/e…

In Ep. 252, Emily Grubert and Josh Lappen join us to discuss the British government’s takeover of British Steel, and steelmaking in the “mid-transition” amid the geopolitical tensions of a global tariff war. xenetwork.org/ets/episodes/e…

In Transition Show @[email protected] Ep. 253, Michael Grunwald returns to the show to discuss his new book, “We Are Eating the Earth.” We focus on the bioenergy side of ag in this conversation, and ask if any of those solutions are truly ‘renewable’ or ‘carbon-neutral.’ xenetwork.org/ets/episodes/e…

In Ep. 254, Nicolas Fulghum joins us for a deep dive into the data in Ember’s Global Electricity Review 2025 report. Not only has the energy transition gone global, it’s accelerating so quickly that global power-sector emissions may be close to peaking. xenetwork.org/ets/episodes/e…
