Transition Show
- In Ep. 268, veteran organizer @carterlavin.bsky.social joins us to share some of the insights, tactics and lessons learned from his 15 years as a transportation advocate. Listen in and learn how you can help advance energy transition policies in your community! xenetwork.org/ets/episodes...
- In Ep. 267, former IEA Director Nobuo Tanaka shares his perspectives on the global realignment into “petrostates” and “electrostates” and how US policy is pushing Europe and developing countries closer to China. We also discuss his bold proposals Asian grids. xenetwork.org/ets/episodes...
- To close out a huge year, we are lifting the paywall on Episode 254 so that all can enjoy this comprehensive review of the data on the global energy transition with @ember-energy.org's @nicolasfulghum.bsky.social xenetwork.org/ets/episodes... HNY from all of us at @TransitionShow! #lagniappe
- In Ep. 265, Chris returns to Paris to interview @timgould.bsky.social about @iea.org’s flagship World Energy Outlook 2025 report. We clarify what its scenarios actually mean (and what they don’t), and find the global energy transition very much still going strong. xenetwork.org/ets/episodes...
- In Ep. 264, we kick off a new miniseries on South Africa’s energy transition with one of its key progenitors, Professor Emeritus Anton Eberhard of the University of Cape Town, who has been agitating for power sector reforms there for over 35 years. xenetwork.org/ets/episodes...
- In Ep. 263, @chrisnelder.bsky.social debates the CEO of Australian distribution utility Ausgrid about when and whether it’s best for customers or distribution utilities to own and operate grid assets like battery storage systems. xenetwork.org/ets/episodes...
- In Ep. 262, @nadiabahmad.bsky.social explains how creating a successful energy transition project depends on community engagement and the specific legal and regulatory frameworks of a place. xenetwork.org/ets/episodes...
- In Ep. 261, @ct-economics.bsky.social shares insights from his book, The Case Against Climate Doom — An Economist’s Guide to Climate Optimism, detailing the ongoing social, political, and technological climate change mitigation efforts that give him hope. xenetwork.org/ets/episodes...
- In Ep. 260, Muyi Yang and @sambutl3r.bsky.social of @ember-energy.org detail how China has become the undisputed global leader in the energy transition, and is helping developing countries to decarbonize far more rapidly than the economic powerhouses of the West. xenetwork.org/ets/episodes...
- It’s our 10th Anniversary! To mark the occasion, we are rejoined by @kingsmillbond.bsky.social and Daan Walter of @ember-energy.org for 2.5 hrs of deep thoughts on what the past decade of our work has been about, and what the next ten years will require. xenetwork.org/ets/episodes...
- In Ep. 258, we explore the only transmission system in Alaska and ask why the utilities that own it are risking blackouts by remaining dependent on declining gas supply instead of transitioning to the vast renewable resources surrounding them. Our longest episode yet! xenetwork.org/ets/episodes...
- For Ep. 257, Chris traveled to a remote, off-road community in Alaska’s Arctic Circle to see how they are integrating renewables into the microgrid that powers the town. xenetwork.org/ets/episodes...
- In Ep. 256, the founder of the world’s first all-electric farm, Mike Casey, explains how farmers can make money and ease grid pressures by adding solar to their farms, and how Rewiring Aotearoa are working to electrify New Zealand. This one is not paywalled so enjoy! xenetwork.org/ets/episodes...
- In Ep. 255, we kick off a new miniseries on Alaska by interviewing an expert in building design and construction about the best ways to put up buildings that are comfortable, healthy, and affordable in the frozen north. xenetwork.org/ets/episodes...
- In Ep. 254, @nicolasfulghum.bsky.social 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...
- In Ep. 253, @mikegrunwald.bsky.social returns to the show to discuss his new book, “We Are Eating the Earth.” We focus on the bioenergy side of agriculture in this conversation, and ask if any of those solutions are truly ‘renewable’ or ‘carbon-neutral.’ xenetwork.org/ets/episodes...
- In Ep. 252, @gruberte.bsky.social and @jlappen1.bsky.social 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...
- 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. Listen in and learn how they’re going to do it! xenetwork.org/ets/episodes...
- 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...
- In Ep. 249, we continue our miniseries on Australia xenetwork.org/ets/category... 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 after all! xenetwork.org/ets/episodes...
- In Ep. 248, @iea.org 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...
- 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...
- Reposted by Transition ShowClimate change need not/should not be a left/right divisive issue. Decarbonization is good for business as well as for human survival as discussed in this excellent, as always, Transition Show podcast about Australia’s progress.
- Ep. 246 continues our miniseries on Australia and discusses how the government is working with the grid power sector to plan and execute its #energytransition while maintaining system reliability. They're doing it right down under! xenetwork.org/ets/episodes...

- In Ep. 245, Julian Leslie of NESO rejoins us to discuss how Great Britain is developing a coordinated plan to evolve ALL of its energy networks toward 100% clean electricity by 2030 and complete decarbonization by 2050. World-leading, cutting-edge stuff out of the UK! xenetwork.org/ets/episodes...
