Reviews

5.0 out of 5 stars from 37 ratings
  • Fills much needed gaps

    Despite the proliferation of energy podcasts, there is a need to go deep in certain countries, especially in the global south and absolutely for a country as important to the energy transition as India. Western audiences might need to stick India-specific phrases and context. I’d strongly recommend that energy aficionados stick with it. The hosts are pros in this space.
