In our twelfth episode, Mark Lee talks to Bruce Douglas, CEO, Global Renewables Alliance, and Dylan Mitchell, Global Commercial Director of Renewables at ERM, about how to triple global renewable energy capacity to at least 11,000 GW by 2030 to meet global climate targets. Their conversation covers:Accelerating grid transformation to connect renewable energyPermitting innovation to scale renewables fasterCross-sector learning and collaboration across the renewables value chainRelated links:3xRenewables – Global Renewables Alliance
Companies and organizations representing more than $12 trillion in market value, responsible for the majority of the world's renewable energy deployment, and hailing from all six populated continents, have published an open letter to world leaders. In it, they call for the goal of tripling renewable energy capacity to 11,000 GW by 2030 to be agreed at COP28 later this year. The call to action comes from a wide range of energy stakeholders. They agree that tripling global renewable energy capacity by 2030 will be transformative, and that COP28 is a critical moment for leaders to translate their ambition into real action to stay on the 1.5°C pathway. But what exactly are the demands? Which actors are being targeted? And are they even realistic? We talk to Bruce Douglas, CEO of the Global Renewables Alliance. Timeline: 04:38 About the 3xRenewables by 2030 campaign 09:30 What actions in what areas are needed to achieve this global goal? Are there regional differences? 15:44 How can we do this with our limited resources? Do we have enough raw materials and manpower? 21:44 What role does nuclear power play in the letter? Questions or suggestions? Then send us an email to podcast@thesmartere.com

The smaller the grid, the higher the price. Islands have been plagued forever by a higher price of power. This is an inherent consequence of their small scale. Add on the top some natural catastrophes, and you end up with a poor and costly service for consumers.The good news is that there is a new generation of Utility managers which has started to tackle the problem. Of course, results are unperfect, as for one Hawaii there is one Puerto Rico. It is not just about money; it is about changing the culture and the rapid adoption of new technologies.To illustrate what can be done at reasonable budgets, we have invited Steve Berberich, CEO of Jamaica Public Service Company Limited (JPS). After running the California ISO for a decade, he has opted for a new challenge rather than enjoy a well-deserved retirement. Jamaica's energy system is highly dependent on high cost imported fossil fuels; petroleum imports account for over 80 percent of electricity production. Furthermore, electricity theft is a massive problem. Finally, Jamaica is always at the mercy of a devastating hurricanes.Jamaica Public Service Company Limited (JPS) is a privately held integrated electric utility company and the sole distributor of electricity in Jamaica. The Company is engaged in the generation, transmission, and distribution of electricity, and also purchases power from a number of Independent Power Producers (IPPs). The change of attitude is to present this stable island of 3m as a perfect testing ground for all possible technological innovations. JPS invites all innovations to be rolled out in Jamaica, which then can leapfrog some legacy part of the industry. ------This Episode partners with Bruce Douglas' Global Renewables Alliance Let's triple renewables in the next ten years.https://globalrenewablesalliance.org/ -----The Episode is sponsored by PV CASE. PV CASE is the ultimate design software for solar PV developers from the earliest stages of planning all the way to the procurement phase. https://pvcase.com/RedefiningEnergy************* Finally, Laurent and Gerard would like to thank all our listeners as we have reached 1,000,000 downloads across all our shows. The main show will likely pass that bar in November. We will celebrate big time.
Live from Brussels, on the 20th of June 2023, we were invited to interview Leonard Birnbaum. Since he came last on the show (Ep50), the whole Energy Sector has been through hell with Russia invasion of Ukraine and the subsequent new-death experience of 2022. Leonard Birnbaum is the CEO of the giant German Utility E.ON and also president of Eurelectric, the sector association which represents the common interests of the electricity industry at pan-European level.We have a very lively debate about how E.ON survived the energy crisis. What changes he had to be undertaken, how luck played its part, but also the “need for speed”. Other key lessons were the end of tolerance for weaknesses, the acceleration of digitisation and total engagement with their customers. We then moved the conversation to the proposed reform of the Energy Market that regulators are keen to put in place. Is it too little too late or, on the opposite, a solution in search of a problem. In its manifesto, Eurelectric wants to focus in the coming years on three priorities:Security of supplyStronger & more digitalised infrastructureFairness of the distribution of risks & benefits between the stakeholdersLeo advocates for flexibility mechanisms rather than capacity mechanisms and support full traceability via 24/7 green certificates. Finally, when you had the electrification of transport, the key word is Flexibility, as the electrification can either be fast or global, but cannot be both at the same time. Compromises will have to be made.A great thanks to Kristian Ruby, Bruce Douglas and Emily O'Leary for making this moment possible.---This podcast is powered by Axpo an international leader in providing sustainable energy solutions for the future. In the Nordics, Axpo has been a pioneer within Trading and Origination services for the last 20 years.
A tremendous increase in electric vehicles is expected in the next few years, which will have an impact on the power grid. By the end of the decade, 65 million EVs are expected to drive on Europe's roads, up from less than 5 million today. How will the spread of electromobility change the demand for electricity? What consequences will this have for the stability of the electricity grids? Can smart managed charging itself perhaps even contribute to a reliable power supply with renewable energies? We talk about these questions with Bruce Douglas. He is Director Business Development & Communications at Eurelectric, the federation of the European electricity industry. Timeline: 03.00: How will EV penetration develop and how will this impact the electricity grid by 2030? 10.40: What's the upside of Vehicle2Grid to stabilize the grid? 17.35: How can consumers be motivated and brought on board 24.28: What about IT security? Could charging columns become a target for cyberattacks? Questions or suggestions? Then send us an email to podcast@thesmartere.com

What is the future for international institutions like the International Monetary Fund - and what, if anything, can it do to help Argentina? These are just some of the topics in a special episode from the annual meetings of the Fund and World Bank in Washington. Stephanie speaks about the future of the world on an all-star panel with former India central bank chief Raghuram Rajan and ex-Bundesbank head Axel Weber, along with Columbia University professor Glenn Hubbard, a White House economic adviser under George W. Bush. She also gets a chance to ask Federal Reserve Bank of Dallas President Robert Kaplan - who helps set US interest rates - whether central banks can even control inflation anymore. But first, Latin America economic editor Bruce Douglas reports from Buenos Aires on just how deep Argentina's problems go -- and whether they can be fixed. It's all part of Stephanomics's lead-up to Bloomberg's New Economy Forum in Beijing in November, where global governance will be high on the agenda.
You've been reporting on Brazil for about six years and an old source gets in touch. The preacher tells you how bad things have gotten since the last time you saw him years back, when things were already stalling out for what was once billed as an oil boom town. A militia had taken over their small town, and people are disappearing. What do you do? Well, if your Bruce Douglas (@bruceecurb), you report the hell out of it. Bruce, an editor for Bloomberg in Brasilia, dusted off his reporting hat and got to the bottom of it. It's a story of years of reporting on Brazil really paying off. Bruce discusses growing up in small town England (4:10), early journalism rumblings from starting a high school newspaper to interning at The Tico Times in Costa Rica (10:55), J-school and breaking into London journalism (16:50), a seven-year stint with the BBC radio (19:36), taking the plunge into foreign correspondence in Rio for the World Cup, Olympics and general political carnage (24:20), exiting freelancing for Brasilia and Bloomberg (35:41) and walking us through his story on the Rio militia/mafia (42:10). Of course, we end with the lightning round (53:40).

Will a dose of free-market policies -- from a populist politician, no less -- finally bring Latin America's biggest economy back to life? On this week's episode of Stephanomics, Bruce Douglas visits the region's busiest port to get a taste of what's ailing Brazil -- and the possible cure. Stephanie also brings you the second part of her interview with Harvard University economist Larry Summers -- the former U.S. Treasury secretary and Obama adviser -- with his comments on Brazil's economy and the new thinking on progressive U.S. fiscal policy. Finally, Stephanie talks with editor Catarina Saraiva about Bloomberg’s dreaded Misery Index.
Episode 29 finds us in Portugal for the 1989 release of Italian masterpiece/Predator rip-off Robowar. Find out if the film’s “star” Reb Brown does one of his patented screams-while-shooting-an-assault-rifle (spoiler: he sure does). This movie is not to be missed. Then we try to pump some life into Aerosmith‘s 1989 effort Pump by talking about how generic and terrible it is and how much Casey loves it. Our guest this week is Modern Superior‘s own Bruce Douglas (of Lonely Nights with Bruce Douglas). Bruce has a breadth of knowledge about terrible movies and he uses it to help us make sense of this senseless Robowar. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/time-bandits/message
Can South America's largest economy get any worse? It may all depend on the outcome of next month's presidential election in Brazil. The campaign has already seen its share of drama, and investors are spooked about a return to heavy government intervention in the economy that could see banks forced to offer cheap credit. Scott Lanman and Daniel Moss discuss the election with Bloomberg editor Bruce Douglas in Brasilia.
Agile software development is a term we often hear about. But most folks that aren’t deeply into the thick of development don’t know what agile development is, or why they should be thinking about it. It’s not a new technique, but it is slowing gaining momentum. To get the real low-down, I spoke to one Bruce Douglas, a Chief Evangelist at IBM, and of the world’s recognized leaders in this space for this week’s Five Minutes with…discussion.
