Podcasts about Energy industry

Eric Perner spent most of his early life and career on horseback learning the craft and trade of equine athletic competitions at the highest level.  After competing nationwide as a professional journeymen jockey for 10 years he retired and completed his Mechanical Engineering degree at the University of Tulsa, he has since received his Professional Engineering license and served in multiple executive roles in the O&G industry.  Later he moved on from the extractive O&G industry and became a full time cattle rancher, Co-Founder/CEO of REP Provisions, a direct to consumer supplier of locally raised regenerative meats from local family farms, and COO of Rebellion Energy Solutions, a company focusing on the plugging of leaking O&G wells and the restoration of these lands to regenerative landscapes.  He uses his diverse skill sets to develop unique environmental solutions in the Energy Industry and for various problems facing agriculture. Eric is an educator on the topic of regenerative agriculture and his unique insights show why cattle can be an intricate and necessary part of our grassland ecosystems; however, the improper management of cattle can lead to environmental degradation.  Eric owns the Double P Ranch in Mounds, Oklahoma where they produce grass-fed beef, goat, lamb and pastured pork as part of the supply chain for REP Provisions. He operates his ranch as a Savory Global Business Hub to provide restoration grazing education and guidance for other local ranchers in the methods of holistic management to create the conditions that lead to the regeneration of our native grasslands.  In this episode, Tara and regenerative rancher Eric Perner dive into how truly regenerative agriculture restores soil, water cycles, and biodiversity while improving human health and why voting with your food dollars really matters.   RESOURCES: Learn more about Rep Provisions: Vote for the future of food with your dollar!

Those giant pyramids of sand at every frac site exist for one reason, and it turns out the industry might be quietly running short on the good stuff. Curtis Wilie and Josh Johnson of Superior Energy Services break down how a coal byproduct called fly ash is shaking up the proppant game, why something three times finer than sand outperforms it, and how pulling forgotten barrels from legacy wells could matter more than drilling new ones. Plenty of analogies, zero shame about the dumb questions.Click here to watch a video of this episode.Join the conversation shaping the future of energy.Collide is the community where oil & gas professionals connect, share insights, and solve real-world problems together.

Deirdra Garyk, longtime energy policy analyst and advocate, says this year's Global Energy Show was defined by a renewed sense of optimism, driven by greater policy certainty and a shift toward building major projects. She highlighted a new labour market outlook projecting roughly 72,000 energy-sector job openings by 2035, while warning that the industry's biggest challenge is not a shortage of workers, but a shortage of skills. Garyk also argued that growing demand from AI, LNG exports, and global energy security concerns is pushing the conversation away from an "energy transition" and toward a more pragmatic approach to “energy realism.”The Hub is Canada's fastest-growing independent digital news outlet.Subscribe to our YouTube channel to get our latest videos: https://www.youtube.com/@TheHubCanadaSubscribe to The Hub's podcast feed to get our best content when you are on the go:https://tinyurl.com/3a7zpd7e (Apple) https://tinyurl.com/y8akmfn7 (Spotify) Want more Hub?

While Democratic leaders are pledging to restore wind and solar tax credits if they regain control of Congress and the White House, some clean energy developers are questioning whether continuing to pursue those incentives is necessary or even politically wise. POLITICO's Nico Portuondo breaks down why Democrats and parts of the renewable energy industry are increasingly at odds over those credits and what the debate means for America's clean energy future. Plus, the U.S. Energy Information Administration said that global oil consumption in 2026 is expected to fall from last year, and Constellation Energy's plan to reopen the shuttered Three Mile Island nuclear site is one step closer to Nuclear Regulatory Commission approval.

Methane is invisible, odorless, and far more potent than CO2 in the short term, so how do you actually catch it leaking? Brendan Smith, CEO of SeekOps Inc., explains how technology built for the Mars Curiosity rover ended up flying on drones over oil and gas sites here on Earth. We get into spectrometers versus satellites, why offshore detection is so tricky, what EU methane rules mean for US operators in 2027, and how SeekOps turns an invisible gas into something you can finally see.Click here to watch a video of this episode.Join the conversation shaping the future of energy.Collide is the community where oil & gas professionals connect, share insights, and solve real-world problems together.

18 May 2026. ADNOC has announced it is accelerating construction of its West-East pipeline. The project, now expected online in 2027, will run from Abu Dhabi to Fujairah and double export capacity, allowing the UAE to bypass the Strait of Hormuz entirely. But with the UAE now out of OPEC, what does it also mean for expanding production capacity? Economist Daniel Richards with his view. Plus, three years of free fuel and cars moving by rail - two big moves from Al Masaood Automobiles. Why buy a car when you can subscribe to one?

Clean energy companies across the country are racing ahead of a July deadline to secure federal tax credits and incentives that have helped drive the rapid expansion of wind and solar power. But as those incentives begin to phase out, big questions loom about whether the U.S. clean energy industry will stumble or stand strong. POLITICO's Pavan Acharya breaks down the scramble, the stakes, and whether the industry can sustain its growth. Plus, the European Commission is considering giving fossil fuel companies leeway to avoid penalties under new rules governing the emissions of methane. Pavan Acharya covers clean energy for POLITICO.

Oak Ridge is at the nexus of the nuclear energy renaissance. One of the challenges is meeting the demand for the necessary workforce, and not just the scientific and technical workforce but the skilled trades workers needed to build out and operate the small modular reactors and other facilities that are coming. On Thursday, May 14, ORAU is hosting the Pathway to Trades Summit, which will convene industry, trade unions, academia, government and other key players to begin to solve for meeting this important need. Laura Hammons, strategic programs and operations manager for the ORAU STEM Accelerator and key organizer of the summit, sits down with Michael Holtz to discuss why the Summit is important, what participants can expect, and what she hopes will happen next.

In this episode of InnoStation, our guest is Asfand, an InnoEnergy Master's alumnus in Renewable Energy who now works in Life Cycle Assessment and sustainability at Holcim, one of the world's largest construction materials companies. Meryem and Asfand unpack what sustainability work looks like inside heavy industry, and what it really takes to go from an international student profile to landing a role in a technically complex sector under pressure to decarbonise. Together, they talk through the decisions many students are facing right now: which specialisation matters, how to choose countries and universities strategically, and how to build a profile that translates into real roles after graduation.The conversation then moves into Asfand's day to day work in LCA and Environmental Product Declarations, including how impact is measured and reported in construction materials, where the real emissions hotspots sit in cement and concrete, and why regulation is making environmental assessment increasingly non optional in the European market. Tune in for a practical, honest episode on careers, persistence, and what it means to build a sustainability path inside industry, with clear advice for current students and early career professionals.InnoStation Podcast:Instagram LinkedIn

Across south-east Asia, governments are scrambling to find ways to conserve energy and shield the public from soaring costs, as war in the Middle East causes huge disruption in the global oil market. In Thailand, news anchors have been ditching their jackets after orders to reduce air conditioning use, while government workers in the Philippines are operating on a four-day week. Asia relies heavily on imported energy, much of which passes through the strait of Hormuz, and officials have warned further measures could be considered if the energy crisis worsens.

Global oil and gas prices have skyrocketed as war halts energy exports from the Middle East. The strait of Hormuz, a narrow passage of water that facilitates the shipping of about a fifth of the world's oil, has been in effect closed since the regional war began, prompting fears of a global economic crisis. According to reports, traffic has dropped by about 80%, but how long until we feel the effects? Nosheen Iqbal speaks to the Guardian's head of business, John Collingridge – watch on YouTube.

How a battery gets optimised, from the moment a contract is signed to the millisecond a trade is placed, is still a black box for most people in the industry. Understanding that process is the difference between leaving money on the table and extracting maximum value from every asset.In this episode of Transmission, Ed Porter is joined by Fabrizio Fenu, Head of Business Development at EDF UK. They pull back the curtain on how battery optimisation actually works at scale: how assets are treated fairly across a large portfolio, why merchant, floor and tolling contracts suit different investors, what role AI and algorithms play on a live trading desk, and why co-located solar and battery projects are harder to finance than they look.

History has been written by whoever controls the dominant fuel of the era — until now, says renewables entrepreneur Matt Tilleard. He explains why, as the clean energy transition ramps up, we're moving from a world where energy comes from burning fuels to one where it will come from using technology. Learn why this could change everything about global power dynamics — and why the future belongs not to those who control resources, but to those who build and share technology.Learn more about our flagship conference happening this April at attend.ted.com/podcast Hosted on Acast.

Big Oil gets caught trying to inhibit EVs and renwables. What starts as a climate investigation turns into allegations of a decades-long antitrust conspiracy to block renewables and electric vehicles — and Michigan's lawsuit could have massive implications for the energy transition. James may need the show's defibrillator. We also head to Newfoundland, where a hydroelectric dam froze for the first time since the 1960s, forcing generators offline and triggering power conservation across multiple cities during severe winter storms. It's a rare reminder that climate change doesn't just mean warming — it means volatility. The growing backlash against fat-tire e-bikes in Amsterdam, where safety concerns and ER visits are rising fast This week's rage includes SaskPower doing their best to prevent EV adoption, grid demand fees, misinformation about EV bus fires, and Ford's alleged lobbying around Trump-era climate rollbacks. On the brighter side, new satellite data confirms EVs are already delivering cleaner air in California, with measurable drops in nitrogen dioxide linked directly to zero-emission vehicle adoption.

A federal judge cleared the way for construction to resume on an offshore wind power project in New York. It's the second time this week a court ruled against the Trump administration's efforts to kill new wind power facilities. Wind is responsible for producing about 10% of all electricity in the U.S., but the uncertainty is having an impact. Miles O'Brien reports for our series, Tipping Point.

 Is the future of natural gas actually brighter than we're being told? In this episode of the Jake & Gino podcast, Gino and Jake sit down with Jay Bhatty, founder and CEO of NetGasHub.com, to unpack how data, pipelines, and smart policy are reshaping the future of natural gas in a world obsessed with renewables, AI, and exploding energy demand.Jay explains why the U.S. is the “Saudi Arabia of natural gas” and how that advantage impacts manufacturing, data centers, and your wallet. He breaks down how traders use data from pipelines and price differentials to profit in the energy markets, and why physics—not politics—is often the real constraint on wind and solar. You'll learn how the future of natural gas fits into a balanced energy mix (coal, nuclear, solar, wind), why bright young talent is flocking to the intersection of energy and technology, and how investors can gain exposure to pure natural gas plays. Jay also shares his entrepreneur framework—why you should build “painkiller” businesses, how to spot real-world pain points, and why boring, cash-flowing companies may be the best opportunities of all.Connect with Jay Bhatty: NetGasHub.com • LinkedIn • Jay's book on AmazonChapters:00:00 – Introduction to the Energy Industry and Its Importance 02:55 – The Role of Data in Natural Gas Efficiency05:56 – Natural Gas vs. Renewable Energy Sources09:04 – The Future of Manufacturing and Natural Gas11:49 – Attracting Talent to the Energy Sector14:54 – Entrepreneurship Framework in the Energy Industry19:38 – Opportunities in Small Businesses20:56 – Exploring Natural Resources22:46 – The Future of Data Centers27:43 – The Energy Mix: Finding Balance30:03 – Investing in Energy Diversification31:36 – The Future of Energy: A Balanced Approach34:05 – Gino wraps it up  We're here to help create multifamily entrepreneurs...
