John Anderson joins energy analyst Aidan Morrison and journalist Chris Uhlmann for a forensic examination of Australia's energy crisis. Together, they expose the broken promises behind the renewable transition, the CSIRO modelling built on figures no operating wind farm has achieved, and the legislative blunder that turned the New England Renewable Energy Zone into a multi-billion dollar infrastructure disaster. Drawing on international comparisons, primary documents, and on-the-ground testimony, the panel reveals how Australians were sold a false economic promise — and what the true cost to the nation's bills, industry, and security will be.Aidan Morrison is a leading researcher into Energy Systems and currently the Director of Energy Research at the Centre for Independent Studies. In 2023 he exposed how the famous CSIRO report “GenCost” excluded vast costs required to integrate and firm renewables by treating them as “sunk” costs. In 2024 he was amongst the strongest voices calling for nuclear energy in Australia and was a leading critic of the ‘Integrated System Plan' (or ISP): Australia's blue-print for a transition to an energy system dominated by wind and solar. Chris Uhlmann is a Walkley Award winning Australian journalist and news commentator. His career in the media spans over 35 years in radio, print and television. His latest documentary is The Real Cost of Net Zero: The shocking truth of the renewable energy push.

It's well-known that the aviation and aerospace sector has been suffering under a talent shortage for some time now – not to mention the challenge of promoting greater diversity in the workforce. One potential solution? To encourage more young people to enter the industry – to cultivate a love of aviation from an early age, and help kids realise it could hold their dream job. Together with the CSIRO's STEM in Schools program, industry bodies like Aviation/Aerospace Australia are doing just that by going into schools and holding talks and workshops on what an aviation career could mean for students' futures. On this Australian Aviation Podcast, Jake talks to Anntonette Dailey of Aviation/Aerospace Australia about the root causes behind the talent crisis, what the industry is doing about them, and the support it needs to bring young people along for the ride.

"By starting with governance - defining it as the strategic side of governance, not the control side - you lift everything up." - Catherine Livingstone ACCatherine Livingstone AC, Chancellor of UTS, Chair of Pacific National and former Chair of the Commonwealth Bank, Telstra and CSIRO, explains why the way organisations frame ESG shapes the quality of every conversation that follows.Catherine's argument isn't just about semantics. When governance sits at the end of the acronym, it signals that G is smaller in scope - and in practice, that means E and S get managed through a compliance lens rather than a strategic one. In this episode, she walks through the governance definition she uses (direction, control and people), why compliance requirements for E and S are inherently narrow and backward-looking, and what boards need to do differently - at the agenda level, the resource level and the performance metrics level - to make environmental and social priorities genuinely stick.________________Follow Podcast Host ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Richard Conway⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ on LinkedInFollow ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠boardcycle⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ on LinkedInVisit the ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠boardcycle website

Aidan Morrison and Derek Bush join John for a frank conversation about Australia's cumbersome renewable energy transition, and the real costs being borne by the communities expected to host it. They make the case that rural Australians are being overrun by a policy conceived in cities and imposed on regional areas, exposing the considerable gap between the government's 2030 targets and what the national grid can realistically deliver.This is a timely warning that Australia's energy policy is being driven by political ambition rather than engineering reality, and that the consequences will be felt by every Australian as power bills continue to rise.Aidan Morrison is a leading researcher into Energy Systems and currently the Director of Energy Research at the Centre for Independent Studies. In 2023 he exposed how the famous CSIRO report “GenCost” excluded vast costs required to integrate and firm renewables by treating them as “sunk” costs. In 2024 he was amongst the strongest voices calling for nuclear energy in Australia and was a leading critic of the ‘Integrated System Plan' (or ISP): Australia's blue-print for a transition to an energy system dominated by wind and solar. Derek Bush is a farmer from Bookham in southwest New South Wales, where his family has worked the land for many years, growing flowers and other produce. He has become an outspoken advocate for rural communities navigating the impacts of wind farm development and Australia's energy transition.

Nos téléphones, nos ordinateurs ou encore nos voitures électriques reposent aujourd'hui sur une même technologie : les batteries lithium-ion. Leur fonctionnement est bien connu. Des ions, des particules chargées, circulent entre deux électrodes à travers un électrolyte, ce qui génère un courant électrique. Mais ce mécanisme a ses limites : plus une batterie est grande, plus elle met du temps à se recharger, notamment à cause des résistances internes et de la chaleur produite. Une nouvelle piste pourrait bouleverser cette logique. Elle s'appelle la batterie quantique. Ici, plus question de chimie classique : on exploite directement les lois de la mécanique quantique, c'est-à-dire les comportements de la matière et de la lumière à l'échelle de l'infiniment petit.Des chercheurs australiens du CSIRO, avec les universités RMIT et Melbourne, viennent justement de franchir une étape importante. Pour la première fois, ils ont conçu un prototype capable de réaliser un cycle complet : charge, stockage et décharge d'énergie. Le dispositif repose sur une microcavité, une structure minuscule composée de deux miroirs qui piègent la lumière, contenant des molécules organiques spécifiques. Lorsque la lumière entre dans ce système, elle interagit avec les électrons des molécules, créant des états hybrides, à mi-chemin entre lumière et matière. L'énergie n'est donc plus stockée chimiquement, mais sous forme d'excitation quantique.Le phénomène clé s'appelle la « superabsorption ». Contrairement aux batteries classiques où chaque cellule fonctionne indépendamment, ici toutes les molécules agissent comme un seul ensemble. Résultat : plus le système est grand, plus il se recharge vite. Mathématiquement, si l'on multiplie le nombre d'unités, le temps de charge diminue selon une loi proportionnelle à 1 sur racine de N.Autre particularité : cette batterie se recharge sans fil, grâce à un faisceau laser. Les chercheurs ont utilisé des impulsions extrêmement brèves, de l'ordre de la femtoseconde, soit un millionième de milliardième de seconde. Mais attention, nous sommes encore loin d'une application concrète. Le prototype ne conserve l'énergie que quelques nanosecondes, et les quantités stockées restent très faibles. En revanche, il fonctionne à température ambiante, ce qui est essentiel pour envisager un usage réel. Pour les scientifiques, cette avancée marque un tournant. La batterie quantique n'est plus une simple théorie. Reste désormais à résoudre un défi majeur : stocker durablement cette énergie… pour, peut-être un jour, recharger une voiture en quelques secondes. Hébergé par Acast.

Welcome to Printing Money Episode 36!  For this episode Danny is joined by a new guest, John Barnes (Founder and President, The Barnes Global Advisors, Founder and CEO, Metal Powder Works (MPW.ASX). From career foundations in industrial development John has built both an AM consultancy and a metal AM powders company. We are thankful to have his perspective here. This episode starts with a look at John's background and what's brought him to this point. Then, Danny and John review the MILAM 2026 event which occurred earlier this month in Tampa Bay. From Tampa the conversation heads to Australia as a nexus for the global metal AM powder market.  John and Danny dive into dynamics driving that. After the low-down down under, the conversation turns to Printing Money's why and wherefore — 3DP/AM deal analysis around the globe from VulcanForms and Hadrian in the USA, to SWISSTO12 and Additive Drives in Europe, to Snapmaker in China, and more. The best quote of the episode is actually a paraphrase from Seinfeld, as John drops “The whale is the largest mammal in the world, but it doesn't have to be!” seamlessly amidst incisive deal analysis. Danny and John will continue the discussion in person at AMS 2026 this week in New York City.  Meanwhile, please enjoy Episode 36 and check out our previous episodes too.
