Tell us what you think of the show! This Week in Cleantech is a weekly podcast covering the most impactful stories in clean energy and climate in 15 minutes or less featuring Paul Gerke of Factor This and Tigercomm's Mike Casey. This week's episode features special guest Rachel Frazin from The Hill, who wrote about Democrats' plans to continue to focus on rising electricity prices in hopes that it's a winning strategy. This week's "Cleantecher of the Week" is Tyler Norris, Head of Market Innovation at Google. Tyler wrote an op-ed in The New York Times about how we can manage rising electricity demand without driving up costs for households. His main point is that load growth presents an opportunity to offset upward pressure on electricity rates, if we plan the system to make fuller use of the infrastructure we've already paid for.

The latest Consumer Price Index shows that the average electric bill went up more than 5% from September 2024 to September 2025. That's faster than the inflation rate for the same period. Conventional wisdom blames the demand for power on the explosive growth of data centers, but a new analysis concludes that it’s not that simple.

Episode 4879: Green Policy And AI To Blame For Electricity Prices Increasing; An Inconvenient Study
Annual electricity prices have risen at their fastest rate since the late 1980s, pushing inflation to 3 percent. Consumer NZ's Powerswitch Manager, Paul Fuge spoke to Ingrid Hipkiss.
Electricity bills are expected to go up this Winter. The U.S. Energy Information Administration forecasts an average electricity bill rise of approximately 4% from November until March 2026, reaching about $1,130 nationally. What are you doing, if anything, to mitigate the impact of those increased energy rates?
The average cost of gasoline nationwide is hovering near the $3 mark and could soon dip below it, that's according to industry experts. That should be good news for our wallets and the overall economy. When Americans are using less of their income to fuel up their cars, they can be using that cash on other things, especially the rapidly approaching holiday shopping season. Unfortunately, however, home energy bills are expected to rise this winter, according to a report released by the U.S. Energy Information Administration this week Phil Flynn, a Senior Market Analyst at the Price Futures Group and Fox Business contributor, speaks with co-host of "The Big Money Show" Jackie DeAngelis about what's behind both of these trends, and what they tell us about the economy.

Disappointment the Government's energy reforms haven't prioritised keeping electricity prices down. Changes include allowing Crown-controlled gentailers more government capital for projects, plans for a new gas import terminal and giving the Electricity Authority more power. Electric Kiwi CEO Huia Burt told Ryan Bridge this could result in wholesale prices reducing by about 2% per annum. She says that amounts to a few dollars off a power bill, but for a bold reform, we'd be talking hundreds of dollars less per year. LISTEN ABOVESee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

I got an email from the power company this week, telling me about my weekly electricity use and how much of that is used during my eight hours of free power on Saturdays and Sundays. Despite doing all the washing and drying during the 16 free hours of power each week, it was only 20%. No wonder the bills are so expensive. And that's without teenagers chewing through the power like it used to be not that long ago. So we probably shouldn't be surprised by a new survey which says over 60% of people would be in favour of the Government underwriting the cost of new electricity generation, if it meant cheaper power bills. This is a survey that was done by Curia for Octopus Energy and the Auckland Business Chamber. The results have been released as we are, apparently, just days away from some sort of significant government announcement about the energy sector. But here's the question: Is it the Government's job to make energy prices cheaper? I think we lost any right to expect the Government to deliver cheaper power prices when the market was reformed by Max Bradford all those years ago. When we got the set-up we've got now, which we were promised would mean cheaper power prices. Because unless the Government buys back all the shares in all the power companies, then I don't think it is the Government's job to make energy prices cheaper. What's more, the idea of the Government underwriting new generation projects is a bit of a slippery slope. Because why should these companies get the Government being a backstop for them if things go pear-shaped? What about other sectors that have to go it alone without the taxpayer to fall back on? Energy Minister Simon Watts isn't saying much, but he's describing it as something that will be “significant but surgical”. My view is that the only way the Government could deliver cheaper electricity prices is by buying back all the shares in the big power companies. Resurrecting the old NZ Electricity Department (NZED). But that's never going to happen. Shane Jones has talked about it, but I think it's very unlikely. And that's why I think we need to forget about this idea of the Government coming to our rescue. We don't expect the Government to make air fares cheaper. We've abandoned the idea of the Government making groceries cheaper. So why should we expect it to make power prices cheaper? See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

South Africans will have to brace themselves for electricity price increases in 2026 and 2027. The National Energy Regulator of SA has entered into a settlement with Eskom, giving it an additional R54bn over three years on top of the R1.2-trillion is has already approved. Earlier this year Eskom lodged a judicial review of Nersa's decision to grant Eskom a price increase on the basis it wasn't enough.

One of the country's major electricity companies is defending their increased profits amid rising energy prices. Contact Energy's full year net profit is up 41%, with revenue up 20%. Their underlying profit also climbed 17%, bolstered by a strong lift in geothermal generation as well as improved sales and customer numbers. CEO Mike Fuge told Mike Hosking the profits are the result of their investment in major projects that benefit the country, such as geothermal. He says they're actually investing more than what they earned in profit last year. LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In the next few years, the United States is going to see the fastest growth in electricity demand since the 1970s. And that's only the beginning of the challenges that our power grid will face. When you step back, virtually every trend facing the power system — such as the coming surge in liquified natural gas exports or President Trump's repeal of wind and solar tax credits — threatens to constrain the supply of new electricity. On this week's episode of Shift Key, Rob and Jesse talk about why they're increasingly worried about a surge in electricity prices. What's setting us up for an electricity shortfall? What does the recent auction in the country's largest electricity market tell us about what's coming? And what would a power shock mean for utility customers, the economy, and decarbonization?

PJM Interconnection announced the results of their capacity auction last week. This is where suppliers of electricity quote prices to provide surge capacity for periods of high demand (typically hot summer days). It used to be uneventful until last year, when the clearing price was 9X higher than before. This led to the price hikes […]
Electricity companies could face further rules if the latest measures to drive down prices don't work. The Electricity Authority's moving to require power companies to charge less for power during off-peak periods and pay more for solar and battery power during peak periods. But it hasn't stated how much lower off-peak prices actually need to be. Commerce Commission Chair John Small —a member of the authority's Energy Competition Task Force— told Heather du Plessis-Allan they're hoping competition will drive down off-peak prices. He says they want to see how things go, but the regulator will need to consider further action if things don't go as planned. LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In this week's episode, host Kristin Hayes talks with Jesse Buchsbaum, a new research fellow at Resources for the Future, about how consumers respond to changes in electricity prices. Buchsbaum discusses the responsiveness of electricity consumers to prices in the short and long term, the role of pricing in driving long-term changes in consumption habits and investments in electric appliances, the importance of pricing for effective policymaking, and differences in the sensitivity of consumers to price changes depending on income.
