Data centers aren't the only driver of rising power use.

Tens of thousands of First Nations households across northern Australia are living with the constant threat of power cuts — some being disconnected from electricity nearly every week. Lauren Mellor from Original Power and Dr Tom Longden from Western Sydney University discuss their new report, The Right to Power – Keeping First Nations Communities on Prepayment Connected, which exposes the staggering human and systemic toll of prepaid electricity systems. They reveal how prepayment — a system often imposed without consent and designed to shift financial risk from retailers to consumers — is leaving families in the dark, often during extreme heat. They discuss the failures of retailers to protect vulnerable customers, the ‘racialised' nature of prepayment rollouts, and the reforms needed to keep communities connected. From automatic hardship concessions to heatwave disconnection bans and community solar programs, they argue it's time to end a two-tiered energy system that no other Australians would tolerate.

Electricity demand in the US is rising faster than it has in decades, driven by AI and a wave of investment in domestic manufacturing. But with transmission lines and other electricity infrastructure taking years to permit and build, how can America secure the power it needs fast enough to remain competitive?In this special episode of The Energy Gang, recorded at the ACORE Grid Forum in Washington DC, host Ed Crooks speaks with industry leaders, innovators, and policymakers tackling the challenge of “speed to power”, and asks them for their ideas on how to accelerate the build-out of the next grid.Ed begins the episode with Heather Reams, President of Citizens for Responsible Energy Solutions, who explains why bipartisan consensus on permitting reform is finally within reach, and what it will take to sustain political will through an election year.Next, Richard Kauffman, Chair of the Coalition for Green Capital, shares his perspective on how creative financing models and public-private partnerships can unlock investment for distributed and community-scale energy projects that strengthen the grid from the ground up.Ed then speaks with Rob Gramlich, Founder and President of Grid Strategies LLC, who breaks down the regulatory and planning challenges slowing progress on transmission and offers insight into the reforms needed to modernise America's grid for a new era of demand.Technology can help find solutions faster. Theodore Paradise, Chief Policy and Grid Strategy Officer at CTC Global, discusses how advanced conductors with carbon fibre cores can double transmission capacity without building a single new line. He also explains how CTC's new partnership with Google is accelerating the deployment of new transmission technology.Finally, Ray Long, President and CEO of ACORE, joins Ed to bring all the threads together, highlighting how political leadership, technology, and finance must converge if the US is to meet its rising power needs and remain globally competitive.This episode was recorded at the ACORE Grid Forum in Washington DC.You can also watch the full conversation in video format on YouTube - just search Energy Gang.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Stein advocates for continued use and more efficient consumption of fossil fuels until a viable, adequate substitute is found to maintain global living standards and infrastructure.00:00 Introduction to Ronald Stein00:19 The Renewable Energy Delusion01:01 The Importance of Crude Oil02:06 Products Derived from Fossil Fuels02:40 Challenges of Replacing Fossil Fuels03:05 Electricity and Its Dependence on Oil03:41 The Role of Fossil Fuels in Modern Society05:31 Environmental and Economic Impacts06:47 Future of Energy and Sustainability20:20 Ethical Concerns with Green Energy27:19 Global Energy Policies and Realities30:30 Conclusion and Final Thoughtshttps://heartland.org/about-us/who-we-are/ronald-stein-pe/—-Slides, summaries, references, and transcripts of my podcasts: https://tomn.substack.com/p/podcast-summariesMy Linktree: https://linktr.ee/tomanelson1

I hope next week we're back to fun, cause we're just mad!" exclaims Christi and if you needed any indication how serious the situation is, we only managed to cover the first half of "99 Problems but a Mom Ain't One" on this episode. Two hours of recording and there was just so much behind the scenes drama, so many painful memories and so much tea to dish out that one episode simply couldn't contain it all. Christi and Kelly knew it would be rough, but knowing is only half the battle.Season 5 kicks off with Pyramid, and Christi and Chloe are nowhere to be found at the ALDC (shocking I know). Abby starts to push the narrative that if Christi simply would apologize for her "behavior" then all of this drama could have been avoided (sure Jan) and the moms vocalize their annoyance with Christi, claiming she's being selfish and putting her needs above everyone else. The real problem for Production is their entire planned storyline for the Season has to be scrapped on the spot and they must quickly find a new angle to set up the season's story arcs.Abby invites Kalani back to fill the gap in the team left behind by Chloe. Holly steps-up to help Nia prep for he solo, taking over Christi's potential LA-based storyline. And with no Christi to target, the Zeglers start to take some heat from Abby in her absence.

InVEST Project Launches Nationwide Survey on Electricity Use in Irish Homes

With over two million smart meters now installed across Ireland, households are entering a new era of smarter, more flexible electricity use. As time-of-use tariffs become increasingly popular (and dynamic tariffs set to launch in June 2026), Irish homes will soon have more control than ever over their energy bills. But how well are we using these tools, and what more can be done to help households make real savings? Munster Technological University's InVEST Project, supported by the Sustainable Energy Authority of Ireland (SEAI) under the RD&D 2022 programme, has launched a nationwide survey to understand how homes across Ireland use electricity and how people can take better advantage of their smart meters and inherent household flexibility. Nationwide Survey on domestic Electricity Use, InVEST Project The Energy Use in Irish Homes Survey takes about ten minutes to complete, and participants will be entered into a prize draw to win home energy monitors and smart plugs (total prize value €340). The draw will be held on 4 December 2025, and one entry per household is allowed. Survey link: https://forms.office.com/e/2kLhviBvxp Understanding Ireland's changing energy landscape Ireland's residential sector accounts for roughly one-quarter of total electricity demand, and that share is expected to grow with the electrification of heat and transport. Many households are now equipped with smart meters, providing half-hourly consumption data and the potential for smarter energy decisions but access and understanding remain key barriers. "Across our project, we found that many participants struggled to retrieve or interpret their smart meter data," said Dr. Niamh Power (Project Lead). "This highlights a crucial gap between technology rollout and user empowerment. Access to clear, usable data is what allows people to shift when they use appliances, reduce bills, and cut carbon but without that access, much of the potential is lost." Academic and policy literature reinforce this finding: households with better data access and understanding of their usage patterns are more likely to adapt behaviour and benefit from new tariffs. Simple actions such as running appliances at off-peak hours or charging electric vehicles overnight can deliver meaningful savings under time-of-use pricing. A call for participation The InVEST team has already gathered insights from early adopter homes that invested in solar PV, heat pumps, or electric vehicles and found clear patterns of smart energy use emerging. However, the team wants to hear from all Irish households, regardless of whether they have advanced technologies. "With upcoming dynamic tariffs and growing interest in flexible electricity use, now is the perfect time for every home to understand their own patterns," the team added. "The more people participate, the better we can identify opportunities for savings and design fairer, more effective policies."

What happens when the surge in electricity demand comes faster than we can build the infrastructure to support it? Live in front of an audience at the Council on Foreign Relations in New York, host Ed Crooks leads a conversation on the future of the US energy grid, skyrocketing load from data centers and electrification, and why politics keeps getting in the way of practical solutions. Neil Chatterjee, the former Chairman of the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC), has spent a long time working on the interaction of markets and policy in energy. He says: “America needs to take the politics out – or the lights go out.” Is overzealous federal regulation really undermining the reliability of the grid? How can we win support for realistic solutions that will keep the lights on and ChatGPT on line. Joining Ed and Neil to discuss these questions is regular guest Amy Myers Jaffe, who is director of the Energy, Climate Justice & Sustainability Lab at NYU. She proposes that AI might not be the cause of both blackouts and a climate catastrophe. She argues that we might actually save more energy from using AI than we consume in powering the data centers that support it.Debating the issues with Amy, Ed and Neil is Cecilio Velasco, managing director in infrastructure at KKR, a global investment firm that deploys capital in infrastructure. Cecilio brings the investor view on what it will take to unlock the trillions in capital needed for a reliable and resilient energy system in the age of AI. The panel address the uncomfortable truth that the US may need every available electron – from wind and solar to batteries to nuclear power and gas – to meet its goals.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
