Tell us what you think of the show! Transforming the grid to meet skyrocketing energy demand isn't just about switching generation sources but is instead about fundamentally redesigning the entire energy market. It's going to require unlocking the true potential of every Distributed Energy Resources (DER) that we have, and integrating them seamlessly into a complex, resilient system. That's easy to say but exceptionally complicated to do logistically and in a way that makes sense for a given market, which is why we wanted to talk with someone who isn't just supporting this transformation, but is also actively working with utilities to better understand what's happening at the grid edge to make informed decisions. Jo-Jo Hubbard is the Co-founder and CEO of Electron, which helps network utilities and grid operators adopt and scale flexibility markets to manage grid congestion, improve connection rates, and lower bills. Among other things, we discuss:Why utilities need to shift from a static view of the distribution grid to a real-time, dynamic modelHow smart coordination of DERs creates a resilient and efficient gridWhat it means to make DER orchestration simpler and more compelling to utilitiesHow tiny efficiencies can lead to billions in savings at scale.The single biggest lesson learned that utilities need to have top of mind when designing their own DER aggregation and dispatch programsWant to make a suggestion for an upcoming episode?

Wenn Regisseure zu den Sternen blicken, glauben sie häufig, philosophisch werden zu müssen. Leider! Wir erlebten das etwa in „Ad Astra“ oder „Gravity“ – und immer wieder müssen familiäre Probleme bekakelt werden. So ist es auch bei George Clooney und seinem #Netflix-Film „The Midnight Sky“, in dem der Schauspieler auch die Hauptrolle übernimmt. Als einsam in der Arktis, in einer Wetterstation zurückgebliebener Astronom Augustine Lifthouse erwartet er vom Leben nicht mehr viel, er ist schwerkrank. Wir schreiben das Jahr 2049, eine Katastrophe, die nur angedeutet wird, hat dafür gesorgt, dass die Erde unbewohnbar ist. Schon eine Weile suchte die Menschheit nach einer Exit-Strategie, und eine Weltraummission kehrt gerade von K23, einem neu entdeckten Mond, mit der Erkenntnis zurück, dass nicht nur auf dem blauen Planeten Leben möglich ist. Neben diesen beiden Ebenen gibt es noch eine dritte, die in Lifthouses Vergangenheit angesiedelt ist. Wir lernen einen passionierten Forscher kennen, der – es lebe das Klischee – aber seine Familie vernachlässigt und nie eine richtige Beziehung zu seiner Tochter aufgebaut hat. Dies kann er – verschoben – in der Gegenwart nachholen, da Lifthouse in der Wetterstation plötzlich von einem kleinen Mädchen überrascht wird, das sich versteckt hatte. „The Midnight Sky“ ist #ScienceFiction-Film und #Dystopie, er will ein existentielles Drama und ein gesellschaftspolitischer Diskursfilm voller Rührseligkeit sein – nichts davon gelingt. Stattdessen sehen wir den bildgewordenen „Jargon der Eigentlichkeit“. Mehr dazu von Wolfgang M. Schmitt im Video!Literatur:Theodor W.

California is often described as the state where you can see the future of the US, and of the world. That has certainly been true in terms of some of the problems faced by the electricity grid. California has been grappling with the impact of wildfires and a big shift to renewable generation, and now faces the prospect of rising power demand from electrification and data centers.In this episode, host Ed Crooks and regular guest Amy Myers Jaffe of NYU talk to Elliot Mainzer, President and CEO of the California Independent System Operator (CAISO), to dig into how the state is tackling those challenges.California's electricity prices have nearly doubled in eight years, rising to about 32 cents per kilowatt hour for residential customers. Affordability has become a political flashpoint, as it has in many other parts of the US, and other countries around the world. Elliot explains how CAISO is using reforms of transmission planning and interconnection queues to help “bend the cost curve” downwards.The discussion also covers an important shift that is now under way in western power markets. Governor Gavin Newsom of California recently signed AB 825, advancing an independent regional governance structure for the emerging extended day-ahead market. Elliot outlines how implementing the new law could change reliability, capacity planning, and resource adequacy across 11 states.Another pressure point is AI, and the data centers needed to support it. While large load growth in California is more modest than in some other states such as Texas or Virginia, the state still expects 2.3 gigawatts of new data center demand by 2030. Ed and Amy question how much flexibility these data centers can provide, whether price pressure is pushing hyperscalers elsewhere in the US, and how CAISO will manage the all-important issues around siting and grid integration.The episode also dives into one of California's most contentious debates: the role for distributed energy resources and virtual power plants. Elliot discusses what CAISO can see, what it can't, and what needs to change for DERs to support affordability and reliability—while highlighting the remarkable performance of the state's battery fleet in avoiding Flex Alerts for the past three summers.Finally, the conversation looks ahead to California's longer-term energy future. The state has set an ambitious energy goals, including sourcing all its electricity from zero-ccarbon generation by 2045. To achieve that, many gigawatts of new renewables are still required, and wide-area coordination across the western US will have to live up to its full potential. As Elliot puts it, managing this grid is challenging, but “the challenge is energizing.”Stay tuned to The Energy Gang as we continue tracking the forces that are reshaping the power industry, from technology and finance to policy and climate.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
An den Außengrenzen der EU floriert russische Propaganda. Wie wehren sich Moldau und Rumänien? Ein Podcast mit Florian Kührer-Wielach von Pragmaticus.Das Thema:Als Russland noch Sowjetunion war, war die Republik Moldau Teil jenes Imperiums, das der russische Präsident Wladimir Putin wiederbeleben will. Mit gezielter Propaganda versucht er, Wahlen in den Ländern Südosteuropas zu beeinflussen. Durch Desinformation, Stimmenkauf, Kirchenpropaganda und gekaufte Politiker. Mit dieser Strategie ist er unterschiedlich erfolgreich. Der Südosteuropa-Experte Florian Kührer-Wielach, Direktor des Instituts für deutsche Kultur und Geschichte Südosteuropas an der Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität München (IKGS) berichtet in diesem Podcast, wie sich die Republik Moldau und Rumänien gegenüber dem Aggressor Russland positionieren. Er analysiert, mit welchen Argumenten die russische Propaganda punktet und wie sie es schafft, Gesellschaften zu polarisieren. Das, was an den Außengrenzen der EU passiert, zeigt immer auch, welche Herausforderungen der gesamte Kontinent zu stemmen hat und ist insofern ein Einblick in Sicherheit, Minderheitenpolitik und die Anstrengungen für eine liberale Weltordnung. Die gute Nachricht: Die Europäische Union kann sich als Gegenpol noch gut positionieren. Wie lange noch? Unser Gast in dieser Folge: Florian Kührer-Wielach stammt aus Horn im Waldviertel in Österreich. Der auf die Geschichte Südosteuropas spezialisierte Historiker ist der Direktor des Instituts für deutsche Kultur und Geschichte Südosteuropas an der Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität München (IKGS).

Join me, Trevor Freeman, as I explore the traditional, unconventional and up and coming facets of the energy industry. If you have any thoughts, feedback or ideas for topics we should cover, please reach out to us at think energy at hydro ottawa.com, hi everyone, and welcome back. This is our special holiday rewind edition of the thinkenergy podcast, which has become a bit of a tradition around here. I'm your host, Trevor Freeman, and as we settle into the final days of the year, it feels like the perfect time to slow down and take a look back at some of the conversations that we feel really shaped 2025 at least, for the podcast and in our own minds. This year, we explored everything from grid modernization to decarbonizing buildings distributed energy resources (DERs) and some of the technologies that are really defining how Canadians live, work and stay connected. Today's episode is the first of a two-part holiday rewind series, each part highlighting five standout episodes that we feel really sparked ideas curiosity and great discussions throughout the year. So pull up a comfortable seat, pour yourself something seasonal and festive, and join me as we revisit some of the insights and innovations that we feel lit up 2025 to start with, we kicked off 2025 with a forward looking conversation on some of the trends that we thought might shape the year, and to be honest that many of them unfolded even more quickly than we expected. In our first episode of 2025 we looked at clean energy trends. We talked through how electrification and AI driven grid intelligence and new customer expectations were really going to change the landscape in real time for us, here's a moment that we captured just how quickly the industry is accelerating and why adaptability is so important to us. At the same time, utilities across the country will continue to invest in grid modernization. So as well as infrastructure expansion, not just modernization, we're also building and growing our grids to keep up with the pace of change, but we need to also be able to leverage more DERs on the grid, so more distributed energy resources, small scale solar generation, things like that. So we will continue to see utilities make steps in that direction. They will look to levels of government to support those initiatives, through programs and funding and regulatory change. So we will continue to see that change in grid modernization, but I know it's definitely a big topic for us here at hydro Ottawa. And finally, in this section, energy efficiency. Energy efficiency is not new. It's been around for quite a while. In fact, it was the primary focus, kind of before we shifted a little bit more towards thinking about carbon. But we cannot fully decarbonize, we cannot fully electrify without significant energy efficiency. We just won't be able to affordably build the infrastructure we need if we're not using energy in an efficient way. So that will continue to be a focus. And in fact, I mentioned the new incentive programs from the province of Ontario that is very much designed to support ongoing energy efficiency measures. So we will continue to see that as a focus in 2025 and our final area, area number five, is technology. So there is no year anymore. In fact, maybe there never was where technology doesn't continue to grow and expand and evolve in ways that we couldn't even imagine, and it does seem like the pace of change is picking up, but I think that's kind of normal. So we will see technology that supports or augments the energy transition continue to evolve in 2025 and the ways that technology influenced that really, you know, we have an idea on some of them, and it'll be interesting to look back in 12 months at what we know in December, 2025 that we didn't even know here today in January. So there you have it. That's going back 12 months. And my expectation of what 2025 might have in store in the new year, I'll be doing a similar deep dive on some of the trends that we've been seeing over the course of this year and what we might expect to continue into 2026 but that idea that the pace of change is accelerating certainly became one of the defining themes of the year, and I think is something that we can expect to stick with us for the foreseeable future. And I think you'll hear echoes of that in all the different episodes that we revisit today. Next up, a modern, reliable grid doesn't just happen. It's built through long term planning, thoughtful investments and a deep understanding of how our communities are growing and how their energy needs are changing. In an episode that we. Least back in June, we unpacked hydro Ottawa's 2026 to 2030 investment plan, and what that means for reliability and customer experience and preparing the system for tomorrow. In this next clip, I chat with Hydro Ottawa's Guillaume Paradis to really get into why it's so critical that we get our investment in the next five years, right for our grid, so that that's a nice segue into his next question, which is, of course, there's a cost for this, and this is why it is an investment plan we're out there outlining. These are our targets. This is what we want to do, but there's a cost to that, and so if we don't do this, if we said, look, we just can't put that extra investment into these areas, what are the implications on the grid, on our service? And let's look at kind of like, quality of service, reliability, safety, etc, if we don't make these investments that we are identifying right now. Guillaume Paradis 06:03 Yeah, so it's pretty direct, right? What we've done for the in preparation for our rate application, in preparation for to develop our plans for 26 to 2030 is we've considered all the needs. We've looked at how old the assets are, how quickly they're deteriorating, how many might require replacement over the next five years, what would be an appropriate rate of replacement to ensure that we don't let risk build up in our system, we don't cause reliability issues. We've looked at how we make sure that we can provide service to our customers, that we can connect them in a timely manner, that we can do all those things in a fashion that is safe and ensures the safety of the public, our customers. And so a lot of thought goes into what is required over the next five years. And then on top of those factors and considerations, we also look at what impact will this have financially on our customers, because we're mindful that our service does affect, you know, our customers live, yes, in a positive manner when our service is reliable and power is available, but also financially. From a cost standpoint, we add to other pressures that everyone experiences in their lives, and so we want to be very judicious in setting the size of our programs the level of investments in managing those various factors, right? So we have a multifaceted responsibility, and we weigh all those factors in in our setting the plans for the future. So doing so looking five years out, as you can probably imagine, you know, if we didn't constrain the plans, if we just did everything our planning engineers would like to do, we would have spent probably another 50% more than what is in the current plan. So looking at old assets, looking at the service levels we want to deliver, we could have spent a significantly larger amount of money if it was purely based on we'll call them planning, you know, drivers. But as I said, we are mindful that we're responsible for the quality of our service on behalf of all our customers. And we took a very deliberate, extensive approach to adjusting the program size to match the various considerations and ultimately manage the impact on our customers from a financial standpoint. And so we landed where we are after some measure of restraint, some measure of adjustments down to the plans that would otherwise have been put in place. So thinking about what the outcomes would be if we didn't take the actions we're proposing. You know, it's pretty direct, if you think about it, and we've covered most of them, but it ranges from, you know, difficulties in connecting and delivering power to new customers in a timely manner so that can have impacts with respect to economic development and growth of our community so fairly direct, and frankly, you know, it's our obligation to connect, so we would do everything we can to provide power, but it might just be more difficult take more time on the reliability front again, what happens when you don't replace old assets is the failure risks continue to build in your system. So an 80 year old wood pole doesn't get any younger and. Doesn't get any stronger if you wait five, six more years. And so as I said, we do a risk assessment before we choose to invest, and our risk assessments tell us that we need to take action on those type of assets. And you know, take action in a timely manner. If we don't, what is likely to happen is that in a storm scenario, those polls that are deteriorated are more likely to fail, even in normal conditions, it's likely that we would see more failures that could lead to reliability issues, and so just a direct impact on the quality of our service for our customers, with respect to other outcomes, like enabling customers and supporting them in integrating more embedded energy resources, that might just become more difficult, as I said earlier, when we're don't have good real time awareness, we have to err on the side of caution and be more conservative in our management of the system, and that might mean restrictions on where and how we can integrate renewable energy resources. And then ultimately, you know, the paramount consideration for us is always safety, and that's an area where we would just have to be even more vigilant if we couldn't reinvest so old assets are inherently more likely to create failure risks and failures can lead to undesirable outcomes from a safety standpoint. So we would have to and already do, but be very vigilant in monitoring those assets, looking at them, looking at what we can do from a maintenance standpoint to ensure that they don't fail in a manner that would be problematic. So we would be an R always very active in looking at those riskier assets, those older assets, to make sure they don't cause problems. But reducing investment levels from what is being proposed now, reducing them further relative to, as I said, the planning levels we would have liked to put forward would have real consequences. And of course, we would do everything we can to manage those consequences and ensure that, you know, we continue to deliver the best service we can, but that would become more difficult than it is today. Trevor Freeman 12:29 So that forward focus, that planning for the city that Ottawa is becoming and our energy needs of the future really reflects that shifting mindset that we're seeing across the whole sector. And I think we saw that throughout 2025 and certainly are going to keep seeing that throughout 2026 for our next clip, one of our most popular conversations of the year, not surprisingly, was with Andrea Nuesser from Capgemini, Canada. Andrea and I dug deep into what it means to modernize the grid, how technology, data, cybersecurity and customer expectations are all coming together and pushing utilities into a new era of grid management and grid design. This was a really great, wide-ranging conversation, but there was one moment that really stood out for its clarity and simplicity, and it highlighted this idea that modernizing the grid isn't just about technology alone. It's primarily about people. Yeah, well, let's do that right now. Actually, it's exactly where I wanted to go. Next is you and I have chatted before and talked about how there is this shift in how utilities are seeing customers, and there's a traditional mindset of how utilities looked at their customers, which has been different from you know, take your average retail customer, or retail relationship between an organization and a customer, utilities are shifting more. So let's dive into that. Tell me a little bit more about what that shift is, and how you see utilities moving in terms of how they engage with customers. Andrea Nuesser 14:00 Yeah, so when I started working with utilities, the term rate payer was a very prominent term. So utilities would refer to their customers as rate payers, or in terms of account numbers, really and what mattered was really just how much electricity do these accounts or these rate payers consume, and there was very little other consideration around that. So I think there's a real shift happening right now where utilities are trying to understand who is this, who is this family, who are these individuals behind these account numbers? Because if I understand and if I become interested as a utility in who is actually consuming electricity, I can have a very different relationship with them. I can reach them with the right messaging, because it matters a lot to me. And if somebody talks to me and understands that. Let's say I'm a growing family living in a more urban area versus a retired couple out in the booth somewhere. So I think demonstrating that understanding really opens up opportunities for much deeper relationship and more targeted customer programs and overall, different messaging and communication, and ultimately an opportunity to build trust between customers and utilities, something that in the past, has been a little bit shaky, I would say, but there's huge opportunity to build brand awareness, to build this, this value based relationship and to build trust. Trevor Freeman 15:45 I really liked this conversation, and I liked this particular moment because it really conveys that grid modernization goes beyond just the technological improvements, and it really prioritizes the human relationships and human interaction at the heart of our energy system, ultimately, all of this that we talk about on the show, the technology, the strategies, the policies, it's all about how we as people, as energy consumers, interact with our energy systems and use it to do all the other things in our life that are important doing, you know, heating our spaces and traveling and moving our families from one place to another, and all these things that are actually the important things are tied up in the energy system. And I liked how this conversation really tied those, those two concepts together. Next up this year, we definitely talked about distributed energy resources. It's been a theme of the podcast for a long time now, but we really are seeing lots of movement and progress. And this episode that I'm about to highlight really broke down how rooftop solar, battery storage, EVs, smart devices, they're all creating a more dynamic, flexible and decentralized grid. So it's taking DERs from just kind of standalone devices that do their own thing to really this ecosystem of devices and technologies that interact together. In this clip that you're about to hear, we explore why DERs, they're not just a technical change, but they're really a cultural one as well. One option to set up your der for financial reasons, is net metering, which I kind of alluded to earlier. Net metering is a setup for renewable generation sources only that allows you to use as much of your generation as you can to power your home when you're using it, and then push back whatever you don't use to the grid. Whatever you push back to the grid will give you a credit on your bill that you can use to offset the electricity charge portion of your bill. In the near future, you will also likely see more utilities wanting to partner with der owners. Here at hydro Ottawa, we are working on a technology project that will be launched next year that will enable der owners to leverage their devices for an incentive to help manage the grid in targeted areas. It's pretty exciting stuff, and it's really the next wave of distributed energy resources on our grid and how we're going to interact with them. It's pretty exciting. And finally, last one for this episode, one of our more thought provoking conversations of the year was with Bryan Flannigan from the Building Decarbonization Alliance. In this conversation, we talked about decarbonizing Canada's buildings. Bryan helped us really unpack why buildings are such a significant part of Canada's emissions profile, and why solutions require systems thinking, collaboration and long-term commitment. This clip really kind of captures the heart of that conversation, balancing practicality with urgency. Yeah, I know on this show, we talk a lot about the different parts of, as you said, all of society that need to be decarbonized. Obviously, buildings kind of comes to the forefront often, and so specifically around buildings talk us through this, maybe kind of a basic question, but, you know, help our listeners understand, why are buildings so important? Why is the decarbonization of our built environments so important when it comes to decarbonizing all of society? Bryan Flannigan 19:17 Yeah, I mean, that's the crux of the question, right? Well, there's a bunch of reasons. I mean, if you think about it, the building, this is where we live, right? These are our homes. These are this is where we go to work. This is our place. Is a business from an economic perspective, organizations arrive in jurisdictions for the purposes of meeting their overall objectives. And if you require energy intensive sort of production. Or if you want to have a big workforce, you want to house your workforce in buildings that align with your objectives. And increasingly, those objectives feature a carbon kind of future, right? And so just from that perspective, it's important for us to kind of get aligned with the global trend toward this, to make sure that we have the investments that we need. And that we want to attract, and we want to have places where people can live that are aligned with those kinds of values. But from an emissions perspective, it's hard to kind of overstate how important the sector actually winds up being. The building sector emits about 90 megatons, give or take, of direct scope one emissions. And if you factor in the grid emissions that result from being buildings being connected to the grids across Canada. It's about 120 megatons. There are digits there that we could go into. But to put it into context, that's about the same as all of the vehicles on the road. So when we think about how important it is to electrify the fleet of vehicles that we're all driving, the building sector is the same. It's the same level of importance. And if we think about all of the work that we've done to decarbonize our electricity system over the years, eliminating coal plants, and those kinds of initiatives that we hear are in the news recently, the building sector emits about twice as much as all of that. And so, the context is that buildings are pretty vast in terms of the overall emissions. And when we think about where those emissions come from, ultimately, it's combustion of fossil fuels for heating our buildings. We're in a cold climate in Canada, takes a lot of energy to heat buildings, and because of the abundance of the resource and a bunch of policy decisions that have been made decades ago, you know, we're in a situation where we've got an abundant and relatively inexpensive source of fossil fuel to heat our buildings. It's about 1500 petajoules, I guess, give or take, and ultimately, we need to move to eliminate that over time, or to largely eliminate it. I mean, I think there's always going to be a bit left in the system. There's, you know, it's, it's a very complex and daunting task, because the building sector itself is very diverse. The buildings last a really long time. It's not like, you know, technology change, where you have if you want to change a phone, you can upgrade it from one year to the next. It's small. It fits in your pocket. It's easy to manage. But buildings are constructed to last hundreds, 100 years. 50 years is the typical lifespan. But, you know, we have lots of buildings that are very, very old, and it's a slow kind of system to turn over. It's a slow inventory to turn over. So it's a really big challenge, a lot of a lot of emissions from the sector. And so it rises to the level of really needing close attention and a different approach than what we've been taking in the past. Trevor Freeman 22:15 Bryan's point there about systems level planning really resonates deeply with all the things we've been talking about this year, because none of these challenges exist in isolation. And systems thinking and systems planning is really this important concept or this important ethos, and something I actually want to explore further. And so keep your eyes open for an episode on that sometime in 2026 so as we wrap up this first of two holiday rewind episodes. The few themes keep rising to the surface. There's the accelerating pace of electrification. No question that we're seeing electrification continue to move forward, and to do so at an increasing pace, despite some bumps in the road, and we're going to see that. We're going to see two steps forward and one step back. But I think we're still seeing an increased pace of electrification, we are seeing the importance of modernization, of moving the technologies that we use to monitor and manage the grid forward in terms of, you know, catching up to where we are with modern technology. And we're also seeing the need for long-term thinking as Canada transitions towards a, you know, low or no carbon future towards net zero as we electrify our lives, we need to have that long term vision in mind, whether we're talking about the future of buildings, upgrading the grid, embracing distributed energy resources or navigating some new and emerging technologies. There's one truth that kind of stood out, and it's something I've said before, but I really want to make sure everyone kind of sits with this and appreciates it. Is that the energy transition is not something that is going to happen? It's not something that's in the future. It is something that's happening right now. We are in the midst of the energy transition. It's not going to be over tomorrow. It's not one of these things that happens very quickly, but we are living it right now. We are seeing it all around us, and it's something that I'm really excited about, talking on this podcast about and with our fantastic guests, and I'm glad to have all of you along with us on that journey. So join us in two weeks for the second part of our holiday rewind series. On that one, we're going to turn the spotlight towards renewable energy and revisit some of the conversations that inspired us the most in 2025 until then, from all of us at think energy, warm wishes for the holiday season. I hope you're staying warm and safe and have a great December and thanks for listening. Thanks for tuning in to another episode of the thinkenergy podcast.

Die Wall Street ist stabil, zumal die Zinssenkungsfantasie weiter an Fahrt gewinnt. Konjunkturdaten schüren erneut die Hoffnung, dass die FED am 10. Dezember die Zinsen senken wird. Nachdem der Lohnabwickler ADP mit einem Rückgang der Privatbeschäftigung überrascht, signalisiert nun auch die Personalberatung Challenger Gray & Christmas eine anhaltend schwierige Lage am Arbeitsmarkt. Laut dem FedWatch Tool liegt die Wahrscheinlichkeit für einen 25-Basispunkte-Schritt bei mittlerweile 89%. Der S&P 500 und Nasdaq konnten in acht der letzten neun Handelstage Boden gutmachen.

Die US-Börsen starten schwächer in den Dezember. Der S&P 500 fällt um 0,4 Prozent, die Nasdaq um 0,5 Prozent und der Dow gibt rund 180 Punkte nach. Vor allem der Tech-Sektor steht unter Druck: Broadcom verliert mehr als 3 Prozent, Super Micro über 2 Prozent – ein Hinweis auf weiteres Profit-Taking im KI-Bereich. Einzige Ausnahme ist Synopsys, die Aktie springt deutlich an, nachdem Nvidia eine Investition angekündigt hat. Bitcoin rutscht parallel mehr als fünf Prozent ab und handelt wieder unter 87.000 Dollar – die Kryptowährung tut sich seit Wochen schwer, die Marke von 90.000 Dollar nachhaltig zurückzuerobern. Die Wall Street kommt zwar aus einer sehr starken Thanksgiving-Woche, doch zum Start in den Dezember spricht die Saisonalität eigentlich für Rückenwind: Historisch steigt der S&P 500 im Schnitt um gut ein Prozent. Doch das heutige Bild zeigt, dass der Markt eine technische Bereinigung durchläuft und auf neue Impulse wartet – insbesondere auf die Fed-Entscheidung kommende Woche. Der ISM-Industrieindex fällt für November auf 48,2 Punkte und bleibt damit klar in der Schrumpfzone. Schwächere neue Aufträge und sinkende Lieferzeiten belasten das Bild, während Lagerbestände steigen und die Preise leicht anziehen.

Die Nasdaq startet am Freitag leicht im Plus, rund +0,2 %, ebenso der S&P 500 mit +0,3 % und der Dow mit einem Anstieg von etwa 240 Punkten. Der Handel wird heute allerdings von einem ungewöhnlichen Ereignis überschattet: Ein Kühlungsproblem in einem Rechenzentrum hat in der Nacht den Futures-Handel an der CME zeitweise lahmgelegt. Der Zeitpunkt ist heikel – denn am Tag nach Thanksgiving sind die Handelsvolumina traditionell extrem niedrig. Das bedeutet: Schon kleine Orders können große Ausschläge verursachen. Gleichzeitig endet heute der schwierige Börsenmonat November. Besonders Tech-Aktien haben die großen Indizes belastet, weil Zweifel an der kurzfristigen Profitabilität vieler KI-Unternehmen aufgekommen sind. Die Nasdaq liegt im Monat fast 2 % im Minus und beendet damit ihren siebenmonatigen Aufwärtstrend. Der S&P 500 notiert leicht tiefer, während sich der Dow knapp behauptet. Trotzdem zeigt diese Woche ein deutlich freundlicheres Bild: Die großen Indizes liegen seit Montag zwischen 3 % und 4 % im Plus – angetrieben von einer Erholung im Technologiesektor. Ein weiterer Hingucker: Silber steigt heute auf ein neues Allzeithoch. Der Spot-Preis klettert um 3 % und liegt seit Jahresbeginn beeindruckende 90 % im Plus – deutlich stärker als Gold, das etwa 60 % gewonnen hat. Anleger schichten damit sichtbar in defensive Rohstoffe um, während die Erwartungen an die US-Geldpolitik weiter schwanken.

Die aktuellen Automobilkurznachrichten mit Michael Weyland Thema heute: Trauminsel Mallorca – Teil 4 Foto: Michael Weyland Die Ostküste und die Hauptstadt Palma haben wir mittlerweile erkundet, jetzt wird es Zeit, sich mal in den Westen Mallorcas zu begeben. Von DEM Westen kann man aber eigentlich gar nicht sprechen, denn es sind zwei Regionen. Der Südwesten, eine der exklusivsten Wohngegenden der Insel, wo auch viele Prominente in großen Villen und Anwesen leben und den Nordwesten, der sich hoch ins Tramuntana-Gebirge zieht. Foto: Michael Weyland Der Reisetipp: Der wohl bekannteste Ort im Südwesten Mallorcas ist Port d'Andratx, rund 35 Autominuten von Palma entfernt. Wer auf sein Portemonnaie achten muss, sollte die dortigen Geschäfte, Boutiquen und Restaurants eher meiden, sie liegen auf gehobenem Niveau. So wie die zahlreichen noblen Häuser, Autos und Yachten. Einen kurzen Stopp sollte man dort aber durchaus einplanen, am ehesten vor oder nach einem Palma-Besuch. Wir sind von dort aus dann in den Nordwesten weitergefahren. Dorthin kann man entweder kleine Landstraßen nutzen oder zurück über Palma, das geht definitiv schneller. Foto: Michael Weyland So haben wir von Port d'Andratx nach Valldemossa grade mal 45 Minuten gebraucht. Im kleinen Bergdorf Valldemossa am Fuße der Serra de Tramuntana ist der Besuch im ehemaligen Kartäuserkloster mehr oder weniger Pflicht. Hier verbrachte der Komponist Frédéric Chopin gemeinsam mit der französischen Autorin George Sand den Winter 1838/39. Allerdings sollte man wissen, dass das Chopin-Museum grade mal zwei Räume umfasst. Immerhin gibt es einen schönen Ausblick von der Terrasse, was den Eintrittspreis einigermaßen rechtfertigt! Foto: Michael Weyland Eine weitere halbe Stunde Autofahrt und wird sind im traumhaften Puerto de Sóller angekommen. Puerto de Soller, auch Port de Sóller genannt, liegt an einer fast kreisrunden Bucht. An der Strandpromenade und am Paseo Maritimo kann man diverse Gastronomie- und Shopping-Angebote. Kleiner Tipp für Eisfans. Foto: Michael Weyland Direkt unten am Wasser findet sich ein Eissalon, der ein phantastisches Orangen-Basilikum-Eis aus Soller anbietet. Unmittelbar vor den Tischen fährt die historische Straßenbahn im Pendelverkehr vom Hafen nach Sóller und zurück. Sie ist die Ergänzung der Bahnlinie Tren de Sóller, die in Palma startet. Das Teilstück musste quasi angebaut werden, um die förderfähige Gesamtlänge der Strecke zu erreichen. Und wenn man schon mal so weit im Norden ist, kann man auch noch Fornalutx, Inca, Binissalem, Port de Pollenca und Port d´Alcúdia besuchen. Unsere nächsten Ziele verraten wir jetzt aber noch nicht. Etwas Spannung muss schließlich sein! Diesen Beitrag können Sie nachhören oder downloaden unter:
En el Día Internacional de la Eliminación de la Violencia contra la Mujer hablamos con Bakea Alonso, socióloga y directora ejecutiva de la Fundación Iniciativa Social, y Juan Rodríguez, psicólogo y sexólogo del área de Coeducación de la fundación, sobre la comunidad conocida como 'manosfera', quienes se dedican a difundir por redes sociales mantras machistas sobre las relaciones de pareja, la sexualidad o los roles de género. Bakea y Juan han creado el proyecto Bróders, "una respuesta para buscar espacios seguros en el mundo virtual" donde los chicos puedan expresar con total libertad las dudas que tienen. "Cuando la chavalería busca respuestas, al tercer clic de Internet están metido en un foro antifeminista donde se promueve la violencia", la socióloga añade que este proyecto "era un grito colectivo" a la necesidad de trabajar el pensamiento crítico, la toma de conciencia sobre las realidades que nos rodean y conocer cómo funciona Internet. A través de las sesiones tratan ese contenido antifeminista y misógino al que se exponen muchas veces y les ofrecen esta alternativa "donde pueden tener la tranquilidad de expresarse sin miedo al juicio o al insulto y sin que tengan esa presión por tener que performar la masculinidad y la virilidad", concluye Juan.

Die US-Börsen haben am Montag in die verkürzte Thanksgiving-Woche etwas fester eröffnet. Der S&P 500 legte rund 0,7 % zu, der Nasdaq Composite stieg um etwa 1,5 %, während der Dow Jones weitgehend unverändert blieb. Unterstützung kam vor allem von Alphabet: Die Aktie gewann mehr als 5 %, nachdem Google in der vergangenen Woche sein neues KI-Modell Gemini 3 vorgestellt hatte. Marktteilnehmer werten die Aktualisierung als Hinweis darauf, dass Alphabet im Wettbewerb um leistungsfähige KI-Systeme gegenüber OpenAI und anderen Anbietern an Boden gewinnt. Aussagen aus dem Unternehmensumfeld, wonach Gemini 3 deutliche Fortschritte bei Geschwindigkeit, Multimodalität und Problemlösung zeigt, trugen ebenfalls zur positiven Kursreaktion bei. Parallel dazu hoffen Anleger auf eine mögliche Zinssenkung der US-Notenbank im Dezember, nachdem der Präsident der New York Fed signalisiert hatte, dass dieser Schritt nicht ausgeschlossen sei.

Distributed energy resources or DERs, things such as rooftop solar panels on homes and small businesses, home or business batteries and electric vehicles are an important option in managing demand for electricity. When these resources are combined through the use of software, they can create what's called a virtual power plant.On this podcast, we talk with two experts in the field: Rebekah de la Mora, a senior policy analyst at the North Carolina Clean Energy Technology Center, and Lakin Garth, senior director of grid strategy at the Smart Electric Power Alliance. They discussed state legislation and regulations that affect DERs and the benefits to consumers. Garth also explained how DERs can be aggregated to form virtual power plants that a utility can use to manage peak power demand.N.B.: The NC Clean Energy Technology Center offers complimentary copies of the 50 State studies to federal and state legislators and staffers, utility commissioners, utility commission staff, state consumer advocate office staff, and state energy office staff.

Markus möchte jetzt Pop-Up-AKWs, Kernkraftwerke die wieder verschwinden, bevor überhaupt jemand mitbekommen hat das da eins war. Nach dem Motto "In Bayern strahlt das AKW, der Söder lächelt und sagt schee" werden die Standorte nach den neuesten politisch, demokratischen Standards ermittelt, per Losverfahren. Als Endlager für die Brennstäbe dienen die verwaisten Wohnungen der Mitglieder der Jungen Union, die sich geschlossen, nach der Forderung der Einführung der Wehrpflicht, für 70 Jahre bei der Bundeswehr verpflichtet haben. Wer so konsequent bei der Rentenpolitik ist, muss auch glaubwürdig bei der Verteidigungspolitik rüberkommen. Eine Glosse von Helmut Schleich.

Während die Junge Gruppe der Union das Reformvorhaben für die Rente weiter ablehnt, spielt CSU-Chef Markus Söder eine entscheidende Rolle. Er hält die Koalition zusammen, nutzt aber den Moment, um seine eigene Handschrift in der Sozialpolitik zu betonen. Vor allem mit der Mütterrente, die Milliarden kostet und weitere Konflikte auslöst. Im 200-Sekunden-Interview spricht Konrad Körner, jüngster CSU-Abgeordneter im Bundestag, über Generationengerechtigkeit, Loyalität und die Frage, wie weit Kompromisse gehen dürfen.Danach richtet sich der Blick in die USA. Dort steht die mögliche Freigabe der Epstein-Akten bevor. Franziska Nocke von POLITICO erklärt, warum sich Donald Trump plötzlich für Transparenz ausspricht, welche Dynamik das in den Reihen der Republikaner ausgelöst hat und was das über die Machtverhältnisse in der Partei verrät.

Umbrische Landschaften erinnern an Ölgemälde mit gedeckten Brauntönen: Mittelalterliche Dörfer mit verwinkelten Kopfsteinpflastergassen thronen auf bewaldeten Bergrücken. Hinter dicken Stadtmauern aus ockerfarbenem Bruchstein finden bunte Gemüsemärkte statt. In den Sibillinischen Bergen ziehen Schäfer mit ihren Herden über sattgrüne Wiesen, aus dieser Gegend stammt auch das Lammfleisch, das die Italiener für herzhafte Eintöpfe verwenden. Das italienische Fremdenverkehrsamt nennt Umbrien „das grüne Herz“ Italiens. Bereits im Mittelalter galt diese Region als Kornkammer, auch heute bauen Landwirte viel Dinkel und Weizen an. Ähnlich wie in der mondäneren Toskana wechseln sich üppige Getreide- und Sonnenblumenfelder ab. Bis heute spürbar ist der Einfluss der Etrusker, die in Umbrien bereits in vorchristlichen Jahrhunderten Reben und Olivenbäume kultivierten. Zu Umbrien gehört kein Meer, dafür der viertgrößte See Italiens, der Lago di Trasimeno. Hier schlug Hannibal die römische Armee. Auch einige Prominente haben die Schönheit Umbriens entdeckt und sich Anwesen gekauft. Der „Star Wars“-Regisseur George Lucas richtete in einem früheren Kapuzinerkloster zehn Suiten ein. Der Sänger Ed Sheeran zieht sich gerne nach Paciano zurück, das zu den Borghi più belli, den schönsten Dörfern Italiens, zählt. Gleich zwei berühmte Ordensgründer kommen aus Umbrien. Benedikt von Nursia und Franziskus von Assisi. Auf den Spuren dieser Männer pilgern viele Reisende aus aller Welt von Dorf zu Dorf, um an den Schauplätzen zu sein, die im Leben der Männer eine Rolle spielten. Ein Höhepunkt ist die Basilika San Francesco in Assisi. Genau hier, am Grab des heiligen Franziskus, beginnt die Reise unserer Autorin Isa Hoffinger, die neben alten Villen und berühmten Kirchen das Festival Umbria Jazz besuchte.
Royal Republic zünden 2010 mit „Tommy Gun“ eine Rock-Hymne, die gerade mal zweieinhalb Minuten dauert – aber einschlägt wie eine Granate. Der Song ist rotzig, voller Energie und hat eine skurrile Prämisse: Der Sänger fleht seine Liebste an, ihn mit einer Thompson-Maschinenpistole zu erledigen – natürlich nur sinnbildlich. Aber genau das macht „Tommy Gun“ so spannend: Man fragt sich einfach direkt, was dahintersteckt.

Mit "White City (A Novel)" veröffentlichte Pete Townshend 1985 ein sehr persönliches Album. Es erzählt die Geschichte von seiner Jugend und dem Aufwachsen in Londons Sozialsiedlungen. "White City (A Novel)" erschien am 11. November 1985 als das fünfte Solo-Album des Sängers und The Who-Gitarristen Pete Townshend. Mit dem Album reflektiert Townshend seine eigene Kindheit und beschreibt die Welt, aus der er stammt. Der Sänger wuchs in der Nachkriegszeit in West London, in der Nähe des realen White City-Viertels auf. Die Gegend war in der Zeit eine Sozialbausiedlung, geprägt von Hoffnungslosigkeit, Gewalt und sozialer Ungerechtigkeit. Das Foto des Albumcovers wurde tatsächlich auch in diesem Viertel aufgenommen. Pete Townshends Eltern trennten sich, als er etwa fünf Jahre alt war. Da beide Musiker waren und oft unterwegs, musste er bei seiner Großmutter leben. Diese Zeit war für ihn äußerst traumatisch, da er dort emotionale Misshandlung erfuhr. Ende der 1970er- und Anfang der 1980er-Jahre verlor Townshend mehrere enge Weggefährten, was ihn stark prägte und in eine Depression stürzte. Zusammen mit seinen Kindheitserfahrungen verarbeitete er dies zunächst in der Therapie und später auch künstlerisch in "White City (A Novel)". "White City (A Novel)" greift tiefgehende existenzielle und soziale Themen auf und gibt Einblicke in die traumatische Kindheit von Pete Townshend. Für Meilensteine Redakteur Stephan Fahrig ist es ein Album, dass wegen seiner ernsten Inhalte besonders aus dem eher künstlichen Image der 1980er heraussticht. Meilensteine Redakteurin Katharina Heinius sieht das Werk sogar als den Abschluss einer Trilogie, die mit "Tommy" beginnt, mit "Quadrophenia" fortgeführt wird und schließlich in "White City (A Novel)" endet. __________ Über diese Songs vom Album "White City (A Novel)" wird im Podcast gesprochen (21:19) – "Give Blood"(36:12) – "Come To Mama"(39:14) – "Brilliant Blues"(45:15) – "Face The Face"(54:47) – "White City Fighting"__________ Alle Shownotes und weiterführenden Links zur Folge "White City (A Novel)" findet ihr hier: https://1.ard.de/pete-townshend-white-city-a-novel __________ Ihr wollt mehr Podcasts wie diesen?

HAYATIMIN EN ACI DERSİ İspanya'nın güneyinde Estepona isimli küçük bir kasabada büyüdüm. On altı yaşındayken bir sabah babam benden kendisini arabayla 30 kilometre uzaktaki bir köye götürmemi istedi. Ancak onu Mijas'a götürdükten sonra arabayı bakım için yakındaki bir tamirhaneye bırakmam gerekiyordu. Araba kullanmayı öğrenmiştim fakat pratik yapmak için pek de fırsatım olmamıştı. Onun için bu teklifi hemen kabul ettim. Babamı Mijas'a götürdüm. Onu öğleden sonra saat dörtte alacaktım. Sonra arabayı tamirhaneye bıraktım. Birkaç saat vaktim vardı. Ben de tamirhanenin yakınında bir sinemada film izlemeye karar verdim. Fakat sinemada çok vakit geçirdiğimin farkında değildim. Saat altı olmuştu. Dolayısıyla iki saat geç kalmıştım. Babam, sinemaya gittiğimi öğrenirse bana kızabilirdi. Bir daha arabayı kullanmama izin vermezdi. Ona tamirhanede arabanın işini uzun sürdüğünü söylemeye karar verdim. Buluşacağımız yere vardığımda babamın caddenin köşesinde umutla olduğunu gördüm. Geç kaldığım için özür diledikten sonra ona arabanın işinin uzadığını söyledim. Bunun üzerine babamın bana nasıl baktığını asla unutamam. Babam: – Bana yalan söylediğin için çok üzüldüm Jason, dedi. – Ne demek istiyorsun baba? Gerçeği söylüyorum, dedim. Babam, bana tekrar baktı. – Sen geç kalınca tamirhaneyi aradım ve bir problem olup olmadığını sordum. Bana senin henüz arabayı almaya gelmediğini söylediler. Yani araba ile ilgili bir problem olmadığını biliyorum. Birden ne kadar büyük bir suç işlediğimi anladım ve babama gerçeği itiraf ettim. Babam beni üzgün bir şekilde dinledi. – Kızgınım ama sana değil, kendime. Eğer sen bunca yıldan sonra bana yalan söyleyebiliyorsan demek ki ben iyi bir baba olamamışım. Kendi babasına bile yalan söyleyebilen bir çocuk yetiştirmişim. Eve yürüyerek döneceğim ve bu arada neyi yanlış yaptığımı düşüneceğim. – Ama baba... Eve 30 kilometre yol var ve hava da karardı. O kadar yolu yürüyemezsin, dedim. Babam, ne özür dilemelerime, ne itirazlarıma, ne de diğer söylediklerime kulak astı. Onu hayal kırıklığına uğratmıştım ve hayatımın en acı derslerinden birini almak üzereydim. Babam, tozlu yollarda yürümeye başladı. Ben de arkasından arab ile onu izliyordum. Ondan özür diliyor ve arabaya binmesini rica ediyordum. Maalesef beni duymazdan geliyor ve üzgün bir şekilde yürümeye devam ediyordu. 30 kilometre boyunca 10 kilometre süratle onu takip ettim. Babamın hem bedensel hem de duygusal olarak bu kadar sıkıntı çekmesine şahit olmak hayatımın en üzücü ve acı veren dersi olmuştur. Aldığım bu dersten sonra bir daha yalan söylemedim. Jason BOCARRO
Rooftop solar. Backup batteries. Smart EV chargers. Distributed energy resources (DERs) are changing the way electricity is generated, managed, and used in Ontario. In this thinkenergy short, Trevor Freeman breaks down how DERs can reduce your carbon footprint, provide backup power during outages, and help you manage your energy costs. Listen in for how net metering, load displacement, and evolving tech partnerships are reshaping the future of the grid and giving you more control over your energy.

This is a bite sized episode designed to be a quick summary of a specific topic or idea related to the world of energy. This is meant to round out our collective understanding of the energy sector, and will complement our normal guest interview episodes. Thanks for joining and happy listening. Hi everyone, and welcome back. Today on think energy, I'm going to talk about distributed energy resources, or DERs. Now, if you've been listening to the show for a long time or even a short time, you will have heard us talk about DERs many times before, and for good reason. DERs are an important and growing part of our energy lives. About a year ago, I did an episode diving into what DERs are, and I encourage you to go back and listen to that one. But today I thought I do a quick refresh and talk about some of the most common ways that DERs are used. So, let's dive right in. First the refresh. DERs or distributed energy resources, are simply pieces of equipment that can generate or store power, generally on the smaller scale size of things, and spread throughout the grid. So, we're not talking about large scale, centralized generation plants here, but that small to medium scale, kind of think rooftop solar or batteries that are sized for home or facility use. And generally, when we're talking about DERs, we're focused on renewable technology like solar panels or batteries, and in some cases, you know, smaller wind turbines. For the most part on this show, that's what we're focused on. However, there are sort of non-renewable DERs as well, and we'll actually touch on that a little bit later. So, let's dive into what some of the reasons are why someone would want a der there's a couple of different reasons. The first is for backup during an outage. So, using solar panels, especially if paired with a battery, can give you some backup if there's an outage from the grid, whether that's a storm or an accident or something like that, that backup power can be focused on your key devices or systems or appliances, or if your storage is big enough, or your system is big enough, it may be used to power your whole home for a period of Time. Of course, if you're using one of those nonrenewable sources that I mentioned, like a fossil fuel power generator, for example, then your backup supply can last longer, really, as long as you've got fuel, but it's not clean, so you will be producing carbon emissions. One emerging technology that we'll likely see more of in the future is using an electric vehicle for this purpose. So, while there's only a few different models that allow this right now, the Ford f1 50 is one of them, and there are some safety and regulatory considerations before you go ahead and do this, we can expect to see more of this in the future as the technology advances and it becomes a bit more widespread. Another reason for DERs is financial. Installing a der can actually help you save money every month, whether that's just by reducing what you consume from the grid or by pushing back unused generation to the grid for credits. And I'll touch on this a little bit more shortly. Finally, if we're talking about those renewable DERs, they produce clean energy. So that's carbon, free emissions, free energy. And if you are concerned about your carbon footprint, you're trying to decarbonize and reduce the amount of emissions that you cause. DERs, renewable DERs are a great way to do that. You can lower your carbon footprint by reducing how much you draw from the electricity grid and any carbon emissions that are associated with that. Okay, so let's go back to the financial use case for a minute and talk about the different ways that that's possible. I'll be speaking about the Ontario context here. So, if you're listening from outside of Ontario, you'll have to do a little bit of your own research to figure out what options exist where you live. One option to set up your der for financial reasons is net metering, which I kind of alluded to earlier. Net metering is a setup for renewable generation sources only that allows you to use as much of your generation as you can to power your home when you're using it, and then push back whatever you don't use to the grid. Whatever you push back to the grid, will give you a credit on your bill that you can use to offset the electricity charge portion of your bill. Another option would be load displacement. With this arrangement, you can generate electricity exclusively for your own use, so you will reduce the amount that you pull from the grid, and that will save you money, but you don't push anything back to the grid, and therefore you don't earn any credits. And finally, there are standalone generation setups. This arrangement involves pushing all of your generation back to the grid for some agreed upon compensation. While there used to be programs for small scale standalone generation so you might be familiar and on. Ontario with the fit or the MicroFit programs that existed about 10 years ago. These programs are closed today, and generally only large generators have a standalone arrangement. Now, like any technology, DERs are not free to install. In fact, they can be quite pricey in some cases, but because they provide benefit to the grid. There are incentive programs out there to help reduce the upfront costs. Here in Ontario, the ISOs save on energy programs provide an incentive to any customer type, from residential all the way up to large commercial to install rooftop solar, and homeowners can access additional funding to install the battery along with their solar. If you're interested in doing this, or you want to learn a little bit more, you can reach out to your LDC, visit our website. If you're in hydro Ottawa's territory, or visit save on energy.ca. In the near future, you will also likely see more utilities wanting to partner with der owners. I talked about this a little bit in my last episode with Andrea Nusser About grid modernization here at hydro Ottawa, we are working on a technology project that will be launched next year that will enable der owners to leverage their devices for an incentive to help manage the grid in targeted areas. It's pretty exciting stuff, and it's really the next wave of distributed energy resources on our grid and how we're going to interact with them. It's pretty exciting. So, there you have it. That's a quick summary of the different ways that DERs are used.

O consumo de um dos pratos mais tradicionais da culinária brasileira - o Arroz com Feijão - vem caindo de forma preocupante. Foi lançada uma campanha para mudar esse cenário.
Yesterday, Base Power announced a $1 billion series C, giving the residential battery company an eye-popping $4 billion post-money valuation. Base manufactures, installs, owns, and operates residential batteries — a vertical integration strategy that CEO Zach Dell says is the “magic” to beating utility-scale batteries on CapEx. The company also acts as an electricity retailer and sells generation capacity. So how does Base's business model work? And what will it do with its new fundraise? In this episode, Shayle talks to Zach about Base's business model, the vertical integration strategy, and the challenges ahead. They cover topics like: The customer value proposition: how customers pay for backup power and Base uses the batteries for grid services Bases's “gentailer” business model in ERCOT, earning revenue from monthly customer fees, retail electricity sales, and battery arbitrage The regulated market approach, where Base sells capacity directly to utilities Base's vertical integration strategy: from ground-mounted designs to decoupled installation processes Challenges like managing a fixed workforce amid fluctuating demand and the declining price volatility in ERCOT Resources: New York Times: Base Power, a Battery-Focused Power Company, Raises $1 Billion Open Circuit: Is this moment for distributed energy different?

Demand response was the original distributed energy resource. In its early days, it was surprisingly manual: a grid operator would call up a large load, like a factory, and request a few hours of reduced demand during peak times. Fast forward to today and DERs look dramatically different. They're automated, deployed frequently across the country, and include everything from EVs and thermostats to sophisticated management systems at paper mills and data centers. So how did DERs evolve from phone calls to fully fledged virtual power plants? And what role do they play now as electricity demand surges? In this episode, Shayle talks to Dana Guernsey, co-founder and CEO of DER and VPP developer Voltus. She is also the former Director of Energy Markets at EnerNOC, a pioneer in demand response. Shayle and Dana cover topics like: The changing mix of customers and resources, as well as the evolving use cases Voltus's new “Bring Your Own Capacity” model, allowing large loads like data centers to fund regional VPPs The barriers that hold DERs back, like access to data The market forces shaping DER adoption, including load growth, declining system costs, and market structures How DERs stack up against conventional power plants in meeting rising demand Resources: Open Circuit: The grid flexibility solutions staring us in the face Catalyst: Is now the time for DERs to scale?

Die Wall Street startet vorsichtig in den Mittwoch. Die Futures liegen leicht im Plus, angetrieben von einer kleinen Erholung bei Nvidia nach den deutlichen Verlusten am Vortag. Dennoch bleibt die Stimmung im KI-Sektor angespannt, da Investoren zunehmend auf die Risiken sogenannter zirkulärer Finanzierungen blicken. Micron konnte mit seinen Zahlen zwar überzeugen, doch die Aktie fiel zuletzt ins Minus – die Erwartungen waren schlicht hoch. Der S&P 500 hatte am Dienstag nach drei Gewinntagen in Folge schwächer geschlossen, obwohl er zuvor noch ein Allzeithoch markierte. Analysten wie bei Wells Fargo sehen den KI-Boom weiter intakt. Es sei kein Hype, sondern ein fundamentaler Trend, der die Nasdaq seit Jahren nach vorne treibt. Besonders Micron könnte davon profitieren: JPMorgan hat das Kursziel auf 220 Dollar angehoben und sieht die Speicherchips der nächsten Generation als Wachstumstreiber. Gleichzeitig bleiben Anleger vorsichtig: Am Donnerstag stehen die wöchentlichen Arbeitslosenzahlen an, am Freitag folgt der wichtige PCE-Inflationsbericht. Auch die drohende Haushaltsblockade in Washington sorgt für Nervosität, nachdem Präsident Trump ein Treffen mit den Demokraten abgesagt hat.

Die Wall Street startet schwächer in die Woche: Nach den Rekordschlüssen von Dow Jones und S&P 500 am Freitag geben die US-Aktienfutures am Montagmorgen nach. Dow-Futures verlieren rund 175 Punkte beziehungsweise 0,4 Prozent, S&P-500-Futures liegen 0,3 Prozent im Minus, der Nasdaq-100-Future fällt um 0,4 Prozent. Belastend wirkt das zunehmende Risiko eines Regierungsstillstands: Der Senat hat vergangene Woche Übergangsvorlagen beider Parteien abgelehnt, während die Frist zur Haushaltsfinanzierung am 30. September abläuft und der Druck auf ein kurzfristiges Agreement steigt. Zugleich blicken Anleger auf eine starke Vorwoche zurück: Der S&P 500 legte um 1,2 Prozent zu, der Dow um 1,0 Prozent, der Nasdaq um 2,2 Prozent und der Small-Cap-Index Russell 2000 ebenfalls um 2,2 Prozent – seine siebte Gewinnwoche in Folge. Rückenwind kam von der ersten Zinssenkung der Federal Reserve seit Dezember: Die Notenbank senkte den Leitzins um 25 Basispunkte und signalisierte angesichts nachlassender Arbeitsmarktdynamik einen gemäßigteren Kurs. Laut CME FedWatch preisen die Märkte bis Jahresende zwei weitere Schritte um jeweils 25 Basispunkte ein. Entscheidend bleibt damit der Datenfluss: In dieser Woche steht der Preisindex für private Konsumausgaben (PCE) an, das bevorzugte Inflationsmaß der Fed, das voraussichtlich erhöhten Preisdruck zeigt – idealerweise moderat genug, um den Lockerungspfad zu stützen. Barclays-Stratege Emmanuel Cau mahnt gleichwohl zur Daten- statt Zinsfantasie: Bei Kursen nahe Allzeithochs und Zinsmärkten, die über die nächsten zwölf Monate weiterhin rund fünf zusätzliche Senkungen einpreisen, dürfte die weitere Unterstützung für Aktien eher von robusten Makrodaten als von noch lockererer Geldpolitik abhängen.

A decade ago, DERs were hot. The hype was that things like batteries, smart devices, and other distributed energy technologies would offset the need for expanding traditional grid infrastructure. But DERs never took off, at least not at the scale that many hoped for. They had high price tags and short track records compared to the existing substations, transmission lines, and generation options that utilities were familiar with. In short, the market didn't need them yet. Fast forward 10 years, and things have changed. Load growth is increasing while major grid bottlenecks — like in transmission, interconnection, and supply chains — may be opening up a new opportunity. So is the time finally right for DERs? In this episode, Shayle talks to his colleague Andy Lubershane, partner and head of research at Energy Impact Partners. Last week, Andy published a blog post making the case that DERs were a good idea that was just too early, but the market is ready now. Shayle and Andy cover topics like: What held DERs back a decade ago Why now is different, including falling system costs and growing grid bottlenecks The difference between demand response and virtual power plants The potential hurdles to scale, like supply chain bottlenecks, foreign entity of concern regulations, and fire codes Resources: Latitude Media: Can distributed energy answer AI's power problem?

In diesem Check-Out sprechen Vera Strauch und Cordelia Röders-Arnold über das Thema Routinen im Arbeitsalltag – und warum es sich lohnt, immer wieder neu hinzuschauen: Welche Routinen geben uns Halt, Orientierung und Sicherheit? Und welche engen uns ein, nehmen uns Energie oder halten uns davon ab, flexibel und kreativ zu sein?Die Unterschiedlichkeit macht sie hier aus. Während Vera vom intermediären Fasten berichtet, ist Cordelia nichts heiliger als die Mittagspause. Wenn Vera von ihrer Beachvolleyball-Erfahrung ohne Führung erzählt, will Cordelia nur noch zu den Abbrunzanti-Boys. Bei einem sind sie sich aber einig: Sonnenschutzfaktor 50 muss sein! ✨ Themen dieser Folge:Persönliche Routinen von Vera & Cordelia – welche bleiben, welche gehenWarum Routinen uns Halt geben, aber auch Ballast sein könnenPausen und kleine Unterbrechungen als Schlüssel zu mehr Leichtigkeit
Manche Dinge klingen schier unbegreiflich. Meistens genau so lange, bis sie einem selbst passieren. Wer hat nicht auch schon ungläubig den Kopf geschüttelt, wenn man in der Zeitung gelesen hat: „Wohnwagenfahrer vergisst Ehefrau an Tankstelle im Rheinland und bemerkt das Ganze erst auf der Fähre in Genua.“ Ein ganz ähnlicher Fauxpas ist nun den beiden Profi-Podcastern Jakob Lundt & Thomas Schmitt unterlaufen. Während die beiden nach der Baywatch Berlin Summer Breeze wieder frisch rasiert im Florida-TV-Gag-Blaumann zum Dienst erschienen sind, ist einfach niemandem aufgefallen, dass Klaas leider nicht rechtzeitig zum Saisonstart aus Italien abgeholt wurde. Klar, ein gewisser Teil der Verantwortung ist auch Klaas anzulasten. Der wiederum kann aber zu seiner Verteidigung vorbringen, dass die Firma „Peroni“ erstmals im Jahr 2025 ein neues Getränk namens „Peroncino” auf den Markt gebracht hat. Das sind etwas kleinere Peroni-Glasflaschen. Die bleiben länger kalt, haben ein schickes Etikett – und wenn etwas erst mal gekauft ist, kann man das ja nicht einfach alles wegschmeißen. Kurzum: Arbeit, Schmarbeit – es kann sich nicht ein Mensch (Klaas) um alle Probleme der Menschheit gleichzeitig kümmern. Die Latenz des Zugeschalteten wird natürlich von den anderen sofort ausgenutzt, indem sie Heufer-Umlauf spüren lassen, dass eine halbe Sekunde Delay in der Podcast-Währung direkt ein Timing-Bankrott bedeuten kann. Um unnötige historische Vergleiche selten verlegen, zitiert Schmitt an dieser Stelle sogar Gorbatschow: „Wer zu spät kommt, den bestraft das Leben!“ Ist die Sowjetunion am Ende an einem wackligen Zoom-Call gescheitert und fliegt Putin deshalb und gar nicht für einen geschenkten Porzellanadler als Briefbeschwerer um die halbe Welt? Was man ausserdem in dieser Ausgabe lernen kann: Die Arbeit zur Erhaltung des Planeten und seiner Arten wird gerecht aufgeteilt. Der Sänger der Böhsen Onkelz kümmert sich um den Klimawandel & um den Fortbestand von Bienen. Donald Trump schenkt Selenski eine schicke Mütze aus dem MAGA Gift Shop, damit der nicht immer so traurig guckt. Klaas hat versehentlich eine Art Escort-Ring für italienische Mamas ausgehoben, die einem zwar keine sexuellen Dienstleistungen anbieten, aber immerhin Frühstück machen, lieb gucken und die Wäsche bügeln. Währenddessen reist Jakob ab sofort Carsten Maschmeyer hinterher, in der Hoffnung von dessen Schulterpolstern noch etwas von Elton Johns St. Tropez Sonnencreme zu kratzen. So hat jeder sein Puzzlestück zum Einsetzen parat und wenn wir alle mal ein paar Meter Abstand nehmen, erkennen wir das sog. große Ganze: eine neue Folge Baywatch Berlin (Alltagsversion) namens: "Plötzlich Papst".
