    The Coal Boss, the Comedian and the Squirrel Mar 01, 2018
    Show notes

    Last June, comedian John Oliver devoted a long segment to the struggling coal industry on his HBO show Last Week Tonight.

    He turned his attention to Robert Murray, the CEO of Murray Energy, one of the most bombastic advocates of coal. And then Murray sued Oliver for defamation.

    That defamation lawsuit was thrown out by a judge last week. But the saga tells us a lot about Robert Murray, one of the most influential figures behind the Trump Administration's coal policies.

    In this week's episode, we'll discuss Murray's approach to promoting coal and silencing critics.

    Then, a look at some new documents from the Seminar Network, a group created by Charles and David Koch, claiming big wins on killing climate policy. The group is planning to spend up to $400 million on mid-term elections. We'll talk about how the Kochs killed America's climate conversation over the last decade.

    Finally, Trump is now claiming he saved the solar industry with tariffs. We discuss the truth.

    A Historic Moment for Energy Storage Feb 23, 2018
    Show notes

    If storage is the Swiss Army Knife of the electric grid, then U.S. energy regulators are breaking out their tool belts.

    Last week brought a historic ruling at FERC. Commissioners told regional grid operators to create rules valuing the grid services of energy storage. Will it screw natural gas peakers – or maybe cut, saw, file, prune, hook, or crimp them?

    Later in the podcast, an infrastructure redux. The White House’s infrastructure plan is out. When it comes to energy, the Trump Administration is making pipelines a priority, and largely bypassing clean energy.

    We’re heading down to Mexico for our final segment. GTM was there for our solar summit last week, and we’ll share a bit of insight into the forces behind one of the hottest -- and cheapest -- solar markets in the world.

    Are Trump's Solar Tariffs Working? Feb 07, 2018
    Show notes

    Since the White House slapped penalties on solar panels made outside America, a handful of companies say they’re likely to ramp up production in the U.S.

    In recent weeks, two Asian producers -- Jinko Solar and United Renewable Energy -- said they're planning to set up new module assembly plants. Other domestic producers are making plans to hire new employees.

    How should we interpret this activity? Does this mean the tariffs are working?

    On this week's Energy Gang, we're joined by GTM Senior Editor Julia Pyper, who outlines the latest activity as the tariffs become law.

    Then, it’s the news circuit. We’ll explore Puerto Rico’s utility privatization plans, Tesla’s virtual power plant in Australia, the Northern Pass transmission rejection, and Arizona’s conservative clean energy plan.

    How We Perceive Wind Farms Near Our Homes Feb 01, 2018
    Show notes

    There are tens of thousands large-scale wind turbines scattered across America. That means over a million and a half households are located five miles from a turbine. And they’re actually inching closer to homes on average, according to government researchers. So how do those machines impact our property values, our soundscapes, and our quality of life?

    The Lawrence Berkeley National Lab has a slew of new data on the impact of wind turbines on our lives. In this week's podcast, we’re going to dive into it. (Spoiler: the majority of people like them. We'll explain why.)

    Then we’re going to talk about the president’s State of the Union Address. Why did Trump duck away from the coal renaissance narrative?

    And finally, we'll explore the controversy around Massachusetts' deal with Northern Pass to supply 17 percent of its electricity with Canadian hydro.

    Trump Issues Solar Tariffs: We Answer Your Questions Jan 23, 2018
    Show notes

    The Trump Administration just imposed 30 percent tariffs on imported solar cells and modules. How much will it stunt solar growth in America? Will it spark a broader trade war?

    There are a lot of questions about the impact. In this podcast, we’re giving you the answers – or, as many answers we have, just a day after the decision.

    This week, we'll bring together our teams from The Interchange and The Energy Gang together to answer listener questions about the tariffs. We'll also talk with GTM Research's Cory Honeyman about how (and where) the 30 percent penalty will impact projects around the U.S.

    Thanks to sponsor, C Power Energy Management. Find out more about CPower's demand-side energy management solutions.

    In this episode, we address:

    • What does a 30 percent tariff mean for project economics in the residential and utility-scale sectors?
    • How will the 2.5 gigawatt cell quota work?
    • Will the decision help domestic U.S. manufacturing? Will it hurt domestic installation jobs?
    • What kind of challenges will we see at the World Trade Organization?
    • Is there a pathway toward a negotiation with China?
    • How could local policy blunt the negative impact of these tariffs?

    Trump's Washington: Year One Jan 11, 2018
    Show notes

    Nearly one year after President Trump was sworn into office, we’re re-examining the state of energy politics in Washington.

    Our post-election episodes were some of our most popular shows of last year. This week, we’re returning to the subject now that we’ve got experience, and not just speculation.

    Amy Harder, an energy and climate reporter with Axios, joins us to talk about a wide range of topics: Rick Perry's NOPR rejection, deregulation, solar tariffs, ANWR drilling, carbon taxes, an infrastructure bill, and the future of climate negotiations.

    The Dismantling of EPA Jan 05, 2018
    Show notes

    What's it like inside the Environmental Protection Agency as the Trump Administration dismantles it from the top down?

    This week, ProPublica’s Talia Buford joins us on The Energy Gang to talk about how Scott Pruitt’s aggressive regulatory rollback agenda is changing the agency’s relationship to science, to industry, and to the staffers who've worked there for decades. An abandoned rule on effluent from power plants tells us a lot about Pruitt's approach to disassembling the EPA.

    Then, New York Governor Andrew Cuomo unveiled his latest energy vision, which features big targets for offshore wind and energy storage. Is New York suddenly the country’s hottest storage market?

    And finally, we’ll wrap up with a glance at two once-mighty companies in solar that are re-emerging after tough times: BP Solar and SunEdison.

    How Utilities Blew $40 Billion on Failed Power Plants Dec 22, 2017
    Show notes

    Good journalism is more important than ever. In our last episode of the year, we're choosing our favorite energy reporting of 2017.

    We'll start off with a conversation about a damning investigative piece on how U.S. utilities put ratepayers on the hook for $40 billion in failed coal and nuke projects.

    Tony Bartelme, a special projects reporter at the Post and Courier, joins us to talk about his bombshell story, "Power Failure: How Utilities Across the U.S. Changed the Rules to Make Big Bets With Your Money."

    He and his team talked with 50 sources in industry and government. They uncovered a systematic effort to obfuscate problems with risky coal and nuke projects -- and pay executives handsomely while doing so.

    In the second half of the show, we'll discuss some of our other favorite stories about microgrids, coal country, electric cars, fuel cells, politics, and the global energy transition.

    This podcast is sponsored by Mission Solar Energy, a solar module manufacturer based in San Antonio, Texas. You can find out more about Mission’s American-made, high-power modules at missionsolar.com.

    Here's a list of our favorite stories that we discussed on the show:

    • Vox: Meet the Microgrid, the Technology Poised to Transform Electricity
    • NY Times: Where Wind Farms Meet Coal Country, There's Enduring Faith in Trump
    • Medium: The Last Auto Mechanic
    • Quartz: Amazon’s Hydrogen-Powered Forklifts Are Its Latest Attempt to Beat Walmart
    • GTM: Global Oil Majors Are Poised for a Resurgence in Solar and Wind
