The show opens with June's PPI numbers and we were below expectations, showing inflation still isn't a problem, despite the dire warnings from so many. VP Vance cast the tie breaking vote to push the first recission bill through, cutting $9B in spending, including $1B for NPR and PBS. President Trump also announced saving the largest natural gas energy plant in all of North America while he was in Pennsylvania. Then, today, he announced a huge deal with the country of Bahrain. We have to return to more Epstein conversation, but this time, I think I finally have a much better handle on the strategy of this White House. We use a piece produced by CNN's Kaitlin Collins to illustrate what I believe is happening behind the scenes. Next, we dive into an undercover piece from the O'Keefe Media Group catching a J&J scientist throwing their Covid-19 vaccine under the bus. Other scandals discussed include Sen. Adam Schiff's (D-CA) attempt to re-frame his mortgage fraud woes and Sen. Rand Paul (R-KY) wants criminal charges brought on Dr. Anthony Fauci. The Trump administration is halting all access of illegals to Federal programs, meant to save up to $40B annually. An anti-Semitic professor at Georgetown has been removed as Islamic studies department chair. Trump has convinced a dozen Republicans to support stopping any attempt to form a CBDC. We close with another trade deal win for the United States with Indonesia. And, finally, one of Trump's judge appoints gets through the Senate; it only took six months.

Hybrid solar, which combines solar energy with storage or wind, is key to Europe's energy transition. It supports system flexibility, improves the cost-effectiveness of an asset and makes energy generation more reliable. Overall, large-scale storage accounts for a significant portion of the current BESS storage growth. However, there are still a few hurdles to be overcome, and growth isn't where it should be. In this episode, we will discuss the current state of the large-scale battery storage market, particularly the hybrid solar market, its prospects, and how to overcome the remaining roadblocks. About Antonio Arruebo Antonio works at the Market Intelligence team of Solar Power Europe, the premier association for the European solar PV and storage sector, which unites 320+ organisations.

Just two types of machines have produced the overwhelming majority of electricity generated since 1890. This week, we look at the history of those devices, how they work — and how they have contributed to global warming.This is our second episode of Shift Key Summer School, a series of “lecture conversations” about the basics of energy, electricity, and the power grid for listeners of all backgrounds. This week, we dive into the invention and engineering of the world's most common types of fossil- and nuclear-fueled power plants. What's a Rankine cycle power station, and how does it use steam to produce electricity? How did the invention of the jet engine enable the rise of natural gas-generated electricity? And why can natural gas power plants achieve much higher efficiency gains than coal plants?Shift Key is hosted by Jesse Jenkins, a professor of energy systems engineering at Princeton University, and Robinson Meyer, Heatmap's executive editor.

Pat then talks about how nearly half of Detroit's apartment complexes are without air conditioning, and Michigan's high unemployment rate.

Context on these developments: First, the Biden administration granted a Clean Air Act exemption to California to adopt CARB's Advanced Clean Cars II package mandating all new car sales by 2035 be electric.

On Tuesday, Abundance Energy, sonnen and Energywell announced a collaboration meant to bring the behind-the-meter, battery-enabled technology to the Lone Star State. A virtual power plant is a network of decentralized energy sources working together to generate, store and manage electricity. In other news, a political action committee accused of breaking election laws raised six figures for a Prosper Independent School District trustee election — but its secretive spending failed to unseat the two incumbents it aimed to replace; Children's Health and UT Southwestern Medical Center announced on Tuesday that they have secured a nine-figure financial donation as they work toward constructing a $5 billion pediatric campus in Dallas that will span nearly 5 million square feet; and Micah Parsons wants a new contract with the Dallas Cowboys. A first-round draft pick in 2021, the premier edge rusher has become a household name as one of the most feared defenders in the NFL. Parsons, a four-time Pro Bowler who has twice been named to the All-Pro team, has 52.5 sacks in four seasons. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

Sign up for our newsletter! The site of a recently retired coal plant in Indiana County is getting a new life as a data center. Plans have been scrapped for a controversial plastic recycling plant in Erie. President Donald Trump signed an executive order to boost coal production, but it may not do much to reverse the industry's fortunes. A new book highlights the natural beauty of the Youghiogheny River. Nearly 2,000 top scientists, engineers and medical researchers signed a letter saying that the Trump administration is decimating the nation's scientific enterprise. Federal funding for the Mid-Atlantic Clean Hydrogen Hub could be on the chopping block according to reporting by Politico. A federal appeals court has temporarily blocked a rule to limit silica dust exposure for coal miners. Federal energy labs in Southwestern Pennsylvania and West Virginia could become the sites for data centers to support artificial intelligence. The EPA announced it will finalize water quality standards to protect fish in a portion of the Delaware River.  We're independent and non-profit, and we don't get money from WESA, WPSU or any other radio station.
