  • Thought this was about Energy Transition

    Guess now the US is a climate denier, Amazon is too and not one mention of green energy in some of the last episodes. Methane is not a solution.

  • Didn't really answer what the industry is doing to improve time to market stage of reactors in the US and Europe and where post war Russia fits into this gambit as a previous big player. Like to know more upgrading existing power stations to generate more power Vs just turning old ones back on.

    Where does the middle east see nuclear, what about water scarcity, fuel refining and the major gap of long term waste storage Vs currently leaving them in casks on site till a site is found.

  • Simplistic, Poor Takes and Information

    Very pro renewable energy and green-tech group uninterested in considering the strengths of any conventional energy sources or facing the macroeconomics and implications of green-tech and renewables.

    These guys like to apply a TON of analogies as proof of their opinions and research. Very little substance or numbers behind the discussions found in this show.

    I found it particularly frustrating that the hosts tend to invoke successful small scale or consumer technology trends (albeit successful... more

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Demand for power generation and grid equipment is booming. Can the industry keep up?
Q: What could policy makers do that would really help you expand and grow, provide the equipment the industry needs?
Policy should prioritize durability and long-term commitment rather than episodic, era-by-era changes. A stable framework would give industry confidence to invest in capacity, supply chains, and workforce while allowing innovation in grid technologies and decarbonization efforts.
Is fusion power here at last? The imagined energy of the future is becoming very real right now
Q: What is the realistic timeline for fusion reaching the grid, and what factors could accelerate or slow this down?
Industry leaders expect pilot plants and early commercial fusion in the 2030s, with a clear path through private sector development (Sparc and Arc) and regulatory streamlining. Key accelerants include targeted policy incentives, a defined regulatory framework, and a robust supply chain; bottlenecks include permitting, interconnection queues, and capital intensity.
Can the LA Olympics in 2028 be a catalyst for clean energy? How the games could remake transport, power and clean air in the car capital of America
Q: Which companies are you supporting and what might a visitor notice during the Games?
LACI supports a range of startups in EV charging, battery integration, and mobility services. Visitors will notice more electric buses, EV car sharing pilots, and charging depots supporting fleets, alongside a broader ecosystem of cleantech deployment across LA.
Can the LA Olympics in 2028 be a catalyst for clean energy? How the games could remake transport, power and clean air in the car capital of America
Q: What will visitors see in a few years' time and what are the key projects to watch?
Visitors are expected to experience expanded transit, electrified buses, visible charging infrastructure, and electric/autonomous vehicle pilots. The focus is on a transit-first environment, zero-emission freight corridors, and broad charging deployments rather than new stadiums, with ongoing collaboration across utilities, city agencies, and private partners.
Can the LA Olympics in 2028 be a catalyst for clean energy? How the games could remake transport, power and clean air in the car capital of America
Q: What is your involvement there?
LACI does not have a formal role in the Games; the organizing committee LE28 handles the Games themselves. However, LACI collaborates through a public‑private approach to accelerate transportation electrification and clean energy readiness for the event and its legacy.
