This week we’re in the ThunDERdome with Crucible Capital’s Meltem Demirors and Honour Masters.
Have we become too Malthusian? Is AI an extension of Steve Jobs’ “bicycle for the mind” metaphor, or is it becoming more of a wholesale replacement for th... more
Buckle up, this is a long one. But when we’re talking about a revolution of this magnitude, how could it not be?
We couldn’t help ourselves once we sat down with Daan Walter, principal of Ember, to unpack how solar and batteries are fueling the elec... more
We’re back! This time with a solo pod. We continue our tradition of talking about New Year’s resolutions, unpacking DERVOS ‘25, and looking ahead to DERVOS ‘26 and beyond. We feel we’re at the start of a new epoch—rather, DERcade—so we try to tee up ... more
Our final discussion of DERVOS 2025 was a panel on the ramifications of electricity becoming the primary lever of economic and geopolitical might.

Awesome stuff
If you want to be in the room when deep experts riff together informally, actually nerd out about what they love, and create the future together, this is that show. It’s not media, it’s the bar where the real talk happens by the actual people doing the work.
PS of course the tagline for the movement should be “DER baby DER”. Duh guys.
I work in the space, and it’s hard for me to recommend this podcast due to how much of these 2 hour podcasts are a waste of time .. like leaving in laughing after mediocre jokes, off topic introductions. It’s hard to get anything valuable for me, due to how much time it takes to not even get a solid point. Maybe I’m misunderstanding the purpose of the podcast, but if it’s to educate and get people “DER-pilled” it’s extremely hard to follow.
I’ve been deep diving on electricity and energy markets over the last half year and this podcast has been so helpful laying out complex ideas in clear ways and approaching complicated issues from many different perspectives. I really appreciate the diversity of viewpoints from the hosts (who all come from different sectors of energy / electricity) as well as the not too serious dialogue. Definitely recommend this show!

This show centers on distributed energy resources (DERs), electrical grids, and the policy and technology shifts driving energy decentralization. Episodes blend technical depth with practical industry insights, covering open data, governance, and the geopolitical and economic implications of rapid energy transformation. notable angles include the rise of DERs, virtual power plants, and the move toward local manufacturing and electrostate concepts, often featuring practitioner voices from utilities, tech companies, and academia. The format tends to mix sharp banter with deep dives, which can be informative for energy professionals and curious newcomers alike, though some listeners note episodes run long and could benefit from tighter editing... more
