In this research update, we dissect GE Vernova's recent strategic announcement: the Prolec Acquisition, where GEV plans to buy the remaining 50% stake in the Prolec GE joint venture for $5.275 billion. This move is a major catalyst for GEV's growth story, shifting its focus from primarily revenue growth to accelerated profit margin expansion.The full ownership of Prolec, a key supplier of transformers, is immediately accretive to adjusted EBITDA beginning in 2026. Critically, the acquisition removes a non-compete clause that previously restricted GEV's direct participation in the North American market. This is strategically timed to capitalize on the estimated doubling of the total North American Energy Grid market by 2030, driven significantly by the massive demand for Data Center Power, especially for AI infrastructure. With this use of its strong, nearly $10 billion net cash balance—funding the purchase with a mix of cash and debt—GEV is solidifying its position in the high-growth Electrification segment.

Electrification requires copper but supply picture is dim The outlook for oil prices is bearish in the near term owing to excess supply, but beyond that, prices should firm as supply growth slows. Between geopolitics, economic growth and the dollar, there are plausible scenarios for both higher and lower oil, which Francisco discusses in some detail. And while Francisco and the commodity strategy team came into 2025 bullish on gold prices, they're less constructive following the substantial rally and suggest that copper may be more interesting at the moment, particularly with the metal's exposure to growth in electrification and continued supply challenges, which got more acute in the last few weeks. Francisco also addresses aluminum, which can be looked at as power in solid form, making it interesting in a time of persistent growth in power demand.    You may also enjoy listening to the Merrill Perspectives podcast, featuring conversations on the big stories, news and trends affecting your everyday financial life.   "Bank of America" and “BofA Securities” are the marketing names for the global banking businesses and global markets businesses (which includes BofA Global Research) of Bank of America Corporation.

Today's show is a continuation of yesterday, , taking more of your calls on the electrification of New York State

With each passing day, we inch closer to phase one of New York State's push toward blanket electrification. Starting in just about two months, new builds will be prohibited from have gas hookups. As we draw closer to phase one, where do you stand on this issue?

You could be forgiven, listening to the news these days, for thinking the electrification economy is dead. And yet, over the next two years, 95 percent of the world's electricity growth demand is going to be met by renewables.Rachel Doran, executive director of Clean Energy Canada, examines the shifting energy landscape and identifies four obstacles Canada must confront in order to seize the promise of the clean energy transition.

The electrification boom of the 1920s led to rapid industrial growth, concentrated market power, speculative investment, and ultimately a market crash followed by regulatory reforms. Artificial intelligence is experiencing similar patterns, with accelerated adoption, significant investment, market concentration among a few firms, and varied regulatory approaches. Business leaders are advised to recognize these historical parallels and prepare for both opportunities and risks as AI becomes increasingly integrated into the economy.Learn more on this news by visiting us at: https://greyjournal.net/news/ Hosted on Acast.

Guest: Dr. Rachel MuncriefWhen we think about tackling climate change, it's easy to picture solar panels and wind farms. But there's another piece of the puzzle that impacts us all, every single day: how we get from point A to point B. Transportation accounts for a major share of global greenhouse gas emissions, but it's also an area of rapid innovation and urgent opportunity. From cleaner fuels in shipping lanes to electric trucks on highways, the road to a stable climate runs straight through the way we travel and transport goods. Today on Weather Geeks, we're joined by Dr. Rachel Muncrief from The International Council on Clean Transportation, which is an organization leading the charge to transform global transportation systems with science-backed policy and practical solutions. We'll talk about where progress is being made, what challenges remain, and why rethinking transportation is critical for a climate-resilient future.

Mallaghan GSE introduced new products and services at the International GSE Expo this week in Las Vegas. To find out more, Ground Support Worldwide Editor Jenny Lescohier spoke with Mallaghan Chief Commercial Officer Joe Griffith and Head of Global Customer Care Steven Fearon.  Here's a brief summary of the points discussed:  1. New purpose-built de-icer Mallaghan is bringing a new, purpose-built de-icer to the show, designed with its own in-house chassis. This is a significant shift from relying on third-party suppliers for a chassis. The design approach is meant to provide greater control over the product's innovation and allow for the seamless integration of new technologies in the future. 2. Electrification and proven technology The company will showcase its new electric lavatory service truck, the eTsu 3000. It operates on an 80-volt architecture, meaning it can be used with the same charging infrastructure as most existing ground support equipment, like baggage tugs and belt loaders. In addition, Mallaghan is highlighting its SkyBelt belt loader, which has a proven record of reducing aircraft damage rates to zero for several customers. 3. The 'Amazon of spare parts' is coming In a move toward digitalization, Mallaghan is launching a new online parts portal. This platform will function like an e-commerce site, allowing mechanics and fleet managers to easily find and order parts by part number, name, or the equipment's serial number. The goal is to provide a user-friendly experience with clear part images, live pricing, and real-time availability from its two main stock locations. 4. Digitalization and the future of the ramp Mallaghan sees the next phase of industry innovation centered on digitalization, AI, and autonomy. The company anticipates a future with autonomous ramp environments where technology makes operators' jobs safer and more efficient. The ultimate goal is to reduce aircraft damage, employee injuries, and to address the ongoing challenge of labor shortages. 5. Customer-centric support and hospitality While the new equipment and parts portal are a major focus, Mallaghan emphasizes its commitment to customer support. The new parts portal, while digital, is designed to retain a "personal touch" with designated coordinators for customer accounts. The company also looks forward to connecting with the industry at the expo, offering a three-piece Irish band and a customer appreciation event to foster relationships.

Gerard delivered a keynote on Digitalisation, AI, Supply Chains and Electrification at the EcoVadis Global Summit.Gerard Reid argues that we are living through a new industrial revolution driven by digitalization, AI, and electrification, comparable in scale to the steam and automobile revolutions of the past. He highlights how China is rapidly outpacing Western forecasts in areas like AI, solar power, and electric vehicles, reshaping global competitiveness. Reid stresses that AI will transform industries—from healthcare to transport to energy—while massively increasing the world's demand for electricity, which will increasingly be met through solar and battery storage. His central message is that businesses and countries must adopt a growth mindset, embrace AI as an enabler, and adapt quickly—or risk irrelevance in the face of accelerating global change.EcoVadis is a globally recognized platform that provides sustainability ratings and assessments for companies, focusing on their Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) performance. It evaluates businesses across four key themes: Environment, Labor and Human Rights, Ethics, and Sustainable Procurement. These assessments help companies manage ESG risks, ensure compliance, and improve sustainability practices across their operations and supply chains.

Send me a messageIn this week's replay episode of the Climate Confident Podcast, I bring back one of my favourite conversations from earlier this year - my discussion with Jarand Rystad, founder and CEO of Rystad Energy, about the global energy transition and whether we're truly moving fast enough to meet climate targets.Jarand makes a compelling case that the shift to renewables isn't just about climate, it's driven by the simple economics of cheaper, better technologies. Solar, wind, and batteries are already beating fossil fuels on cost, and countries like China are proving just how fast this transition can accelerate. In fact, they've already hit their 2030 renewable targets six years early, while the US risks ceding leadership in the technologies of the future.We explore the three pillars of decarbonisation - clean electricity, widespread electrification, and tackling the “last 20%” of hard-to-abate emissions through hydrogen, CCS, and sustainable fuels. Jarand also dives into the overlooked challenges: from aviation's limited options to land-use pressures, long-duration storage, and the politics that can either speed us up or hold us back.One of my favourite takeaways? The transition isn't a question of if, but how fast. Policy choices, investment in disruptive technologies, and global competition will decide whether we land closer to 2°C or push down towards 1.5°C of warming.If you missed this episode the first time round, now's the time to catch up.

The U.S. power sector serves more than 160 million electricity customers—across homes, businesses, and factories in all 50 states. But the grid that supplies that electricity wasn't designed for the world we live in now, let alone the one that's coming.Electrification is accelerating. Data centers—driven by the explosive growth of AI—are demanding more power than ever, often in places where the grid is already strained. And while decarbonization remains technically optional—for those serious about resilience, sustainability, and long term viability, it's a necessity. These three forces—electrification, digitization, and decarbonization—are colliding, reshaping how our energy system works and who it's built for.The challenge isn't just technical. It's structural. We are moving towards a world of abundant clean electricity—but too often, it's available at the wrong time, or in the wrong place. Permitting and interconnection can add years of delays. And even when approved, major transmission projects often take decades to complete, if they manage to get built at all. And many of the rules that govern our electricity markets weren't built for flexibility, speed, or innovation.So what if we didn't wait for the system to catch up? What if we reimagined where clean power is built, who it serves, and how it's delivered? What if gigawatt-scale clean energy projects were already breaking ground—designed to power data centers, industrial loads, and the digital infrastructure reshaping our world?That's exactly what Sheldon Kimber, Co‑Founder and CEO of Intersect Power, is doing: imagining a better energy future, and then building it—faster than anyone thought possible.SponsorsWatt It Takes is brought to you by HSBC Innovation Banking who is proud to bank some of the most exciting companies pioneering the technologies of tomorrow.With specialist financing support, deep understanding of the challenges, and a global network across more than 50 markets, they help clients scale breakthrough innovations and take them to the world.

ODOE released a draft of the Oregon Energy Strategy on Aug. 14, 2025, and opened a public comment period through Sept. 22, 2025. So, what is the Energy Strategy and why should you take the time to comment? We dive into an overview of the report and the five pathways outlined that represent the direction Oregon needs to go to meet the state's energy goals. As you will hear from our guests, the Energy Strategy is not a plan, but rather a strategy that can be used by policy makers, agencies, and Oregonians alike to help make decisions on Oregon's long-term energy future.

In this second part of the podcast, Michael Barnard pursues his conversation Paul Martin and Emiel van Druten with explores emerging insights into the Netherlands' energy transition, addressing core assumptions around efficiency, hydrogen usage, and electrification.Building efficiency upgrades yield disappointing returns, with gas consumption often rebounding within 2-4 years post-renovation, limiting achievable reductions to about 50%. The recommended solution is a clear shift toward electrification-first strategies, emphasizing cost-effective insulation to properly size heat pumps, a strategy supported by Heat Geeks' methodology and monitored at heatmonitor.org.Tata Steel's ambitious hydrogen-based direct reduction of iron (DRI) plans illustrate the industrial challenge. The strategy begins with natural gas DRI combined with carbon capture by 2025, transitioning fully to green hydrogen by 2040. However, declining global steel demand, driven by China's reduced infrastructure spending and a shift to scrap-based electric arc furnace production, calls into question the economic viability of domestic hydrogen-based steelmaking. A preferred interim solution involves biogenic methane with CCS, progressing eventually to importing green iron pellets for local processing.Contrary to broader industry forecasts, Dutch hydrogen demand may collapse by as much as 80% by 2050, drastically reducing electrolysis capacity requirements from over 30 GW to around 3 GW, reserved primarily for refineries and biorefineries. This scenario eliminates hydrogen from previously expected uses, such as ammonia production, transportation, steelmaking, and electricity backup generation.Methanol emerges surprisingly as a preferred shipping fuel, surpassing ammonia due to safety advantages and ease of biological sourcing. In aviation, hydrotreated vegetable oil (HVO) derived from waste oils becomes the preferred fuel, driven by its simpler conversion process, though competition for limited feedstocks will favor aviation, pushing shipping toward methanol. Electrification projections for short-sea shipping and inland waterways see significant upward revisions, with long-haul shipping partially electrified due to soaring alternative fuel costs.Transportation electrification accelerates, with full truck electrification anticipated by 2035, eliminating earlier expectations for hydrogen trucks. Industry expert Johnny Ninehuis predicts no diesel trucks sold beyond that point, emphasizing battery technology overcoming heavy transport challenges.The chemical industry faces transformation, with methanol production pathways favoring gasification of waste plastics and biomass, particularly for chemical feedstocks and fuel applications. A smaller, cleaner petrochemical sector will remain viable, shifting to low-sulfur crude and significantly cutting hydrogen demand.System-wide rebalancing adjusts electricity demand growth forecasts downward from a previously projected fivefold increase to approximately 3.5 to 4 times current consumption. This adjustment significantly reduces offshore wind expansion targets, eliminating expensive distant and deep-water installations. Nuclear power is also excluded as non-economic, positioning the Netherlands as a future electricity exporter to neighboring markets, notably southern Germany. Direct air capture and synthetic fuel production are considered economically impractical within the Netherlands, and the fertilizer sector is projected to shift towards ammonia imports as local production becomes increasingly uneconomic. Highlighting broader electrification trends, Fortescue's recent $3 billion investment in electrified mining equipment illustrates a growing momentum towards electrification even in challenging, heavy industrial sectors.    

Today, we're back talking about the electrification of New York State, but with a slightly different angle. We're talked about how New York State's push to go full electric will hurt your wallet in the way of increased school taxes to fund electric busses, but have you thought about just how much it'll cost you in the way of appliances. Imagine it's 2030, you just had a gas powered appliance die on you, and can't get it repaired, hence you have to go out and buy a new electric powered version of the appliance. Had you thought about that yet?

Send me a messageProcurement's role is changing, or at least, it should be. In this episode of the Sustainable Supply Chain podcast, I sat down with Conrad Snover, CEO of ProcureAbility, to unpack why procurement still struggles to evolve beyond a transactional role, and what it'll take to transform it into a true driver of value.We covered a lot, from why most procurement teams still don't have a seat at the strategy table, to how utilities are coping with 2+ year lead times on transformers while trying to hit electrification targets. Conrad shared real-world examples of how procurement leaders can build resilience without stockpiling inventory, and why relationships, not just contracts, are the key to sustainable supply chains.We also talked about the path from tactical to strategic to profit-generating procurement, how digital tools (including AI) are shifting the playing field, and the operational basics that still hold too many teams back.If you're leading supply chain or sustainability efforts, and you've ever been frustrated by the inertia of outdated procurement practices, this episode is well worth your time.

In Episode 40 of the Power Trends podcast, NYISO Executive Vice President and Chief Operating Officer Emilie Nelson offers a behind-the-scenes look at how the grid was managed during June's heatwave, which brought record-setting temperatures across the Northeast. Nelson walks through the critical decisions and emergency measures that helped ensure adequate supply margins across New York. According to Nelson, forecasting, demand response, and a mix of energy resources—including solar and wind—helped manage the system during a period of sustained heat. The episode also covers the NYISO's new Grid Alert System, which communicated system conditions in real time. Energy Watch and Energy Warning alerts were issued to the public over the course of the three-day event when reserves dipped below 2,620 and 1,964 megawatts, respectively.Nelson also describes how the NYISO prepares for periods of high demand, and how coordination among neighboring grid operators plays a critical role in maintaining system reliability.Listen to Episode 40 of Power Trends to learn more about how the grid is managed during extreme weather events.

Nestled deep in the Wicklow Mountains, Glenmalure was once a stronghold for rebels and a sanctuary from the outside world. But long after the echoes of rebellion faded, the valley remained a place apart, where the comforts of modern life arrived late. Glenmalure was only connected to the electricity grid and running water in the late 20th century, and the rhythms of daily existence were shaped by isolation, resilience, and community spirit.In this evocative episode, which concludes a series on the Wicklow Military Road, historian Fin Dwyer shares the stories of people who lived in this isolated and remote valley.Recorded in a 200-year-old inn, this episode weaves together personal recollections, local history, and the enduring landscape of Glenmalure. It is a tribute to a way of life that has only recently disappeared!The episode features the voices of Carmel O'Toole, Michael Fewer, Marion McEvoy, Hugh McLindon, and Pat Dunne.
