Victoria is undertaking one of Australia's most ambitious electricity transitions. The state is aiming for 65% renewable electricity by 2030 and 95% by 2035, replacing ageing coal-fired power stations with renewable electricity, batteries and offshore wind while keeping the lights on and consumers' bills down. This week on Cleaning Up's Deep Dive Australia, Michael Liebreich is joined by Lily D'Ambrosio, Victoria's Minister for Climate Action, Energy and the State Electricity Commission, who has overseen the state's energy transition for more than a decade. Together Minister D'Ambrosio and Michael examine the policies driving the transition, from renewable energy auctions and large-scale batteries, to offshore wind and transmission planning. Michael also challenges the Minister on some of the most controversial aspects of Victoria's strategy, including unpublished modelling, coal closure agreements, and the politics of moving households away from gas. Topics: Victoria's energy transition and the role of state governments Replacing coal with renewables Batteries, electricity markets and falling wholesale prices Coal plant closures and investor certainty Transparency, modelling and political accountability Transmission, community opposition and Renewable Energy Zones Offshore wind and the future generation mix Gas, household electrification and cost of living Leadership, public confidence and delivering the transition Leadership Circle: Cleaning Up is proud to be supported by its Leadership Circle.

China transformed solar from one of the world's most expensive energy technologies into the cheapest source of electricity in just a couple of decades. And now it's doing the same with batteries, with prices plummeting around the world. This week on Cleaning Up, Bryony Worthington is joined by Alex Shoer, Managing Director of GridVest, who spent almost a decade building renewable energy businesses in China before bringing those lessons back to the United States. They discuss the lessons behind China's clean energy success, the evolution of solar subsidies, and why battery storage is becoming essential for everything from renewable energy to AI data centres. They explore whether collaboration rather than competition will shape the next phase of the global energy transition, and in which technologies the U.S. still holds a competitive advantage. Topics covered: China's blueprint for scaling clean energy The impact of ending solar subsidies Why batteries are becoming more valuable than solar alone Can AI and data centres accelerate the battery boom? Ford, CATL and the future of global partnerships Competing vs partnering with China Financing the next generation of energy infrastructure The future of battery tech and U.S. innovation Leadership Circle Cleaning Up is proud to be supported by its Leadership Circle.

What impact would a 2% wealth tax on people with £10 million have? If you tax the rich more will it bring down the cost of living for everyone else? How will this help the shortfall of affordable homes? What about the North South divide? Will it reduce the one million NEETs the country has? Will it grow the economy? Inequality economist Gary Stevenson is back to tell us why taxing millionaires is the way to make things fairer. Robert and Steph have a lively debate about whether wealth taxes are enough.

Australia's electricity networks are entering a new era. As rooftop solar, battery storage and electric vehicles demand reshape the grid, the role of distribution networks is changing from simply delivering electricity to actively enabling a smarter, more resilient and affordable energy system. For the third episode of our Deep Dive Australia series, Michael sits down with Marc England, CEO of Ausgrid, one of Australia's largest electricity distribution businesses, to explore what that transformation looks like in practice. Ausgrid is responsible for supplying electricity to millions of customers across Sydney, the Central Coast and the Hunter Region in New South Wales. Marc reflects on how networks have to become intelligent, flexible and community-focused while balancing commercial realities with public service. He shares how distribution companies like his are adapting to an increasingly decentralised electricity system, where balancing reliability, affordability and customer expectations has never been more complex. From the growing role of battery storage and managing unpredictable energy flows, to supporting the rapid rise of data centres and preparing for extreme weather events, he explains why networks will play a critical role in delivering a successful net zero future. Also, Michael travels inside the electricity tunnels beneath Sydney, to see how Ausgrid has built a resilient electricity system for Australia's financial capital. Topics Include: The evolving role of electricity distribution networks Balancing commercial success with community responsibility Battery storage and building a more flexible grid Managing the rise of rooftop solar and distributed energy resources Preparing for growing electricity demand and data centres Building resilience for extreme weather and changing energy patterns Leading innovation through Australia's energy transition Leadership Circle: Cleaning Up is proud to be supported by its Leadership Circle.

Was Prince Harry wrong to sue the Daily Mail? How did Olivia Dean and Sam Fender make chart history this week? Which pop stars should we thank for the resurgence of the vodka cranberry? Prince Harry and other high-profile claimants have lost their High Court case against the publisher of the Daily Mail. Should stars let sleeping dogs lie over historical allegations of journalistic malpractice? Olivia Dean and Sam Fender have made chart history with their song Rein Me In, breaking the record for the longest-running number 1 single by a British act. But what song might stop them from breaking further records if England wins the World Cup? Step aside, obscure liquers. The new drink of the summer (apparently) is a Vodka Cranberry.

South and Southeast Asia face a different challenge to many developed economies. As the regions continue to grow, so too does demand for energy, transport and industry. The question is whether that growth can be powered by cleaner technologies from the start. In the second of our episodes recorded from Singapore, Michael meets Marie Cheong, founding partner at 100x100, a climate tech venture builder and VC for South and Southeast Asia. Previously, Marie co-founded WaveMaker Impact, where she helped launch climate startups addressing some of the region's biggest opportunities for decarbonisation. Marie explains why climate innovation in emerging South Asian markets requires a different approach. They discuss investing across the region, growing energy demand, using AI to decarbonise manufacturing, and why there are no "silver bullet" solutions to climate change. Marie also takes Michael to the People Bee Hoon noodle factory, which makes rice vermicelli noodles to see how Desmond Goh, the factory's director is using AI to improve his operations. Michael meets to Desmond and Muun AI founder Kathryn Knight about how better use of data can help cut emissions and waste. And at the end of the episode, a very special announcement… stay tuned. Topics Include Building climate startups across South and Southeast Asia Why climate investing needs more than "silver bullet" technologies The biggest opportunities for climate innovation in emerging Asian markets Solving regional pain points as the key to success Can Southeast Asia grow without burning more coal?

Australia is navigating an extraordinarily complex energy transition. It is both a major exporter of fossil fuels and a global leader in rooftop solar, while recent disruption to fuel supplies has reinforced the importance of energy security alongside decarbonisation. As the country prepares to co-host COP31 alongside Türkiye, the choices it makes will have implications well beyond its borders. This week on Cleaning Up, Michael Liebreich sits down with Chris Bowen, Australia's Minister for Climate Change and Energy. Chris explains how Australia responded to the recent fuel crisis, why he believes the road to net-zero starts with households, and how the government is balancing affordability, reliability and emissions reduction. Chris and Michael explore Australia's rapid growth in rooftop solar and home batteries, why electric vehicles have been slower to take off, the challenges of expanding the electricity grid, and what Australia's joint leadership of COP31 means for its role on the global stage. Throughout, Chris explains how he sees the challenge of making the energy transition practical, affordable and politically achievable. Topics include: How Australia avoided fuel shortages during the global energy crisis Why Minister Bowen believes the path to net zero starts with households How to make rooftop solar and home batteries work at scale The challenge of electrifying transport in Australia Building the grid needed for a renewable energy future Balancing climate ambition with political and community support What Australia's energy transition can teach the rest of the world Leadership Circle: Cleaning Up is proud to be supported by its Leadership Circle.

Singapore is one of the smallest countries in the world, yet plays a unique role as one of Asia's main financial and oil refining hubs. So how is it using its influence to help or hinder the transition? Ravi Menon has spent his career at the heart of Singapore's economic and financial strategy, serving as Managing Director of the Monetary Authority of Singapore (the country's central bank) before becoming the country's Ambassador for Climate Action. In this conversation with Michael Liebreich, Menon explains why Asia's energy transition will follow a different path from the West. With growing energy demand, dependence on coal and the need for affordable and reliable power, the challenge is not just building clean energy but replacing the systems already in place. They discuss Singapore's role in shaping Asia's future energy system, from cross-border electricity trade and new financing models to carbon markets, electric vehicles and the growing link between energy security and the move away from fossil fuels. Topics include: Why Asia's path to net zero will look different from the West Singapore's unique challenges with decarbonization How growing economies can move past coal How to fund Asia's enormous climate transition The future role of carbon markets in climate action The link between energy security and the shift to clean energy Singapore's role as a catalyst for regional decarbonisation Newsletter: Sign up to the Cleaning Up newsletter at cleaninguppod.substack.com, for all the latest from the show, including new episodes of our Deep Dive Australia series.

Today, Cleaning Up launches its Deep Dive Australia series. Featuring conversations with nine leaders of the climate and clean energy scene, the series explores where Australia is leading the world, where it is not, and how it got there. This is an important moment for Australia. The country was extraordinarily exposed to the closure of the Strait of Hormuz, being the largest per capita importer of diesel in the world. It's also uniquely dependent on China as the destination of its mineral exports and the source of a lot of its technology imports. And in November, Australia will be co-president with Turkiye of the COP Climate Summit in Antalya. In the first of Cleaning Up's Deep Dive Australia series, Michael Liebreich speaks with Darren Miller, the CEO of ARENA (the Australian Renewable Energy Agency), the federal body responsible for deploying over $14 billion AUD in grants to clean energy projects across Australia. Michael Liebreich speaks with Darren about where Australia is leading the world, and where it still has ground to make up.

Since Donald Trump returned to the Presidency in 2025, the US has become increasingly isolationist. It has pulled out of the Paris climate agreement and the IPCC, left the World Health Organisation, as well as a whole host of other international organisations and agencies. So, when President Trump leaves the White House, will the US be able to rebuild trust on the international stage? This week on Cleaning Up, former US Secretary of State and Special Presidential Envoy for Climate John Kerry sits down with Michael Liebreich and reflects on some of the defining diplomatic efforts of his career, from negotiating the Iran nuclear deal to helping secure the Paris Climate Agreement. Secretary Kerry explains how years of relationship-building and behind the scenes diplomacy helped bring Iran to the negotiating table and why he believes the original nuclear agreement succeeded in limiting Iran's nuclear programme. He also shares his frustration at what he sees as the dismantling of agreements and relationships that took years to build, and the challenge of restoring trust in US leadership on the global stage. Secretary Kerry also shares his perspective on working with China, the importance of international cooperation, and the role diplomacy still has to play. They also discuss rebuilding trust in US leadership, and the shifting balance between the US and China in clean energy. Topics Include: How the Obama administration negotiated limits on Iran's nuclear programme The diplomacy behind the Paris Climate Agreement The meaning of "common but differentiated" in climate diplomacy Lessons from Kyoto, Paris and Dubai on international climate agreements Why engaging adversaries matters more than isolating them How can the U.S. rebuild trust on a global stage?

Does Hollywood have a problem with censorship? What's the best post-pandemic movie? Is Andy Burnham, Britain's next potential Prime Minister, actually cool? Amazon MGM Studios has dropped their upcoming Luca Guadagnino film 'Artificial', with some speculating it's because the movie features an unflattering portrayal of OpenAI founder Sam Altman. Is this yet another example of tech billionaires censoring the media industry? Richard Osman and Marina Hyde discuss if studios can do anything to fight back? Keir Starmer is out. Andy Burnham is in (maybe). Richard discusses the former Manchester Mayor's 'indie-kid' credentials with a rifle through his record collection. Quentin Tarantino says there are no good movies post-pandemic. Is he wrong? We discuss the best films of the last half-decade, and why the world is so list obsessed.

Professor Ning Li has spent decades at the intersection of energy, technology and industrial strategy. A nuclear engineer, complexity scientist and founding Dean of the School of Energy at Xiamen University, he is also credited with coining the term "Small Modular Reactor" nearly 20 years ago. In this wide-ranging conversation with Bryony Worthington, Ning Li explains why China has weathered recent global energy shocks better than many expected, how electrification is transforming economic resilience, and why solar panels, batteries and electric vehicles have become China's most important exports. They explore whether the world is really swapping dependence on fossil fuels for dependence on Chinese electrotech, why modularity has become the defining feature of successful modern technologies, and what lessons other countries can learn from China's rapid industrial scaling. The discussion also covers the future of nuclear power, the role of coal in supporting China's grid, the untapped potential of heat pumps, and why the energy transition should be framed not as a burden, but as an opportunity for growth. Topics include: Why China has been relatively resilient to oil and gas disruptions The rise of the "electrostate" China's new energy exports: EVs, batteries and solar Why modular technologies scale faster The origins of the Small Modular Reactor concept The changing role of coal in China's power system Heat pumps and industrial electrification Nuclear power's future in China Climate action as economic development Leadership Circle: Cleaning Up is proud to be supported by its Leadership Circle.

Today, wind power accounts for just under 10% of all electricity globally, around the same as solar, recently overtaking nuclear power. 20 years ago, the figure was under 1%. In that time, the sector's leadership has moved around from Europe to the US to Asia, but one specialist European manufacturer has stayed in the leading group throughout: Vestas — a member of the global wind energy aristocracy. This week on Cleaning Up, Michael Liebreich is joined by Henrik Andersen, CEO of Vestas, to discuss the extraordinary growth in the wind energy industry, the challenges it faces with rising interest rates and political hostility, and where the best place to build turbines is in 2026. Together they do some myth-busting and answer: If wind is so great, why does it need subsidies? Is wind pointless because it's intermittent? Are turbines killing all the birds? What happens to the turbines at the end of their lives? Leadership Circle: Cleaning Up is proud to be supported by its Leadership Circle.

Why is cutting VAT for specific sectors a bad idea? Should there be a flat rate on everything, including the things currently exempt? Why does cutting business rates only benefit landlords?

Currys CEO Alex Baldock & Octopus Energy's Greg Jackson on Retail, Energy, Regulation and AI Jimmy hosts a panel with Currys CEO Alex Baldock and Octopus Energy CEO Greg Jackson on how retail and energy drive jobs, growth and prosperity. Baldock outlines Currys' scale (nearly £10bn sales, 24,000 colleagues) and argues retail employs around 20% of the private sector workforce with rising productivity, but faces policy-driven cost increases, red tape and employment regulation that threaten flexible entry-level jobs. Jackson describes Octopus' rapid growth (8m UK households, operations in 30 countries), the demerger and valuation of its Kraken platform, and diversification into EV leasing and charging. Both stress competition over heavy regulation, cite inefficiencies and distortions in UK energy pricing, discuss geopolitical risks and electrification, and explain how AI is transforming customer service, operations and energy system optimization. 00:00 Welcome and Introductions 03:06 Currys Retail Snapshot 03:41 Retail Jobs and Productivity 05:10 Octopus Energy and Kraken 08:47 Enterprise and Profit Narrative 12:17 Regulation and Competition 17:10 Energy Shocks and Electrification 21:43 Inflation and Cost Pressures 29:36 Employment Costs and Flex Work 36:09 Work Culture and Transparency 41:44 AI Impact on Retail and Energy 49:27 Closing Thanks and Networking Credits: Host / Exec Producer: Jimmy McLoughlin OBE Producer: Sunny Winter https://www.linkedin.com/in/sunnywinter/ Junior Producer: Thuy Dong AP: Ethan Pearman Special thanks to the Margaret Thatcher Conference organising team.
