280 million EV's worth of battery material is sitting on the ocean floor, but do we need to mine it?The end is nigh for the internal combustion engine Electric vehicles will be phased in across the next decade, with two-thirds of vehicles sold in the US by 2032 mandated to be electric. In California, 100% of cars will need to be electric by 2035. As a result, demand for the critical metals that are needed for EVs is forecast to increase significantly. Every solution creates its own challenges. Electrification is one of the answers to the net zero question, but it's created an issue in itself – where are we going to get the minerals? On this episode, host David Banmiller is joined by Gerard Barron, CEO of The Metals Company. They estimate that there are quantities of metals equivalent to 280 million EVs (comparable to the total US fleet today), sitting on the seabed. Deep see mining is a new frontier – but do we need to start scouring the ocean floor when there's an abundance of metals on the surface? How ecological is the practice? Also joining the discussion to answer these questions is Robbie Diamond, Founder, President and CEO of SAFE. SAFE is an advocacy group for US energy security and economic resiliency by reducing dependency on overseas energy supply. They work to ensure that the US and allies secure key aspects of the technology supply chain.Deep sea mining represents a significant opportunity to alleviate supply chain constraints. The mining, done in international waters, presents a few advantages: minimal impact on ecology (though this is debated, and addressed on the show today), avoidance of issues related to cross-continental delivery and rapid utilisation of resources due to lack of infrastructural hurdles.Despite the potential of deep sea mining to diversify supply chains, there has been some resistance from NGOs and other conservation groups who are hesitant about the potential environmental impacts. Understanding the benefits of deep sea mining and, as we do on the show, confronting its potential drawbacks is crucial.Follow us on Twitter - we're @interchange show, or head to woodmac.com/podcasts for more.

In this episode of TwentyTwenty, we interview Robbie Diamond, founder and CEO of Securing America's Future Energy (SAFE), about the way in which energy has historically dominated geopolitics and how the battle for resources as we move into the world of renewables will reshape the political playing field. How will oil giants fare in the renewable energy transition? Will China's dominance of rare earth minerals make it the new OPEC? Can we learn from our time in the oil age, or are we doomed to repeat the mistakes of the past? Executive Producer & Presenter: Elizabeth Dykstra-McCarthy.

Securing America's Future Energy (SAFE) keynote speaker at Benchmark Minerals Washington DC Summit, Robbie Diamond shares his vision since founding this leading 20-person strong non-profit organization 15 years ago with a mission to migrate USA away from its dependence on oil, especially as a transportation fuel. Electric and Autonomous Vehicles have been key to that objective. USA National Security - in particular the rise and threat of reliance on China across the critical minerals through EV & Energy Storage supply chain - has become an important third leg to Keep America SAFE, alongside climate and decreased oil imports - in building bi-partisan consensus in Washington for a more pro-active response to ensure continued USA leadership of the Commanding Heights in Transportation and Utility industries. Inspired in part from a call from Jerry Garcia to motivate Dead Heads for the Rainforest, Robbie has inspired LithiumIonRocks! to call out to all Jane and George Battery Packs to go Truckin' with Robbie to Keep America SAFE.

The U.S. EPA will announce this week it wants to relax Obama-era targets on vehicle pollution, setting in motion a potential war with California. Meanwhile, greenhouse gas emissions from transportation keep rising, overtaking all other sectors in the country. Climatewire reporter Camille von Kaenel explains what to expect. Margo Oge, the former EPA official who negotiated the Obama targets, and Robbie Diamond, the CEO of Securing America's Future Energy, also chime in. "Trump to allow more car pollution. But by how much?" (Climatewire, 03/26/2018), by Camille von Kaenel: www.eenews.net/stories/1060077379

Energy independence is a goal for many when it comes to US energy security, and the future of both is influenced by both politics and complicated global energy markets.

Robbie Diamond, Founder, President and CEO of Securing America's Future Energy, talks with T. Boone Pickens about how we can bring alternative energy solutions into the market so the United States isn't totally dependent on oil.

Get your chargers ready! The President and CEO of the Electrification Coalition shares his innovation on cars that won't have you running to the pump.

Can you imagine spending your entire adult life as a United States Marine or Sailor, protecting the shipping lanes for foreign oil that Americans crave? Or how about trying to run a company like FedEx with ever-fluctuating gasoline prices? What if these people came together to ensure that future American military members would never have to fight for the energy we need to fuel our economy, and American businesses would forever have clean, reliable, affordable, domestic energy with which to run their companies? Good news…they have come together, and Robbie Diamond joins us on Go Green Radio to explain. Robbie is the President & CEO of Securing America's Future Energy (SAFE) – www.secureenergy.org - , and the Electrification Coalition – www.electrificationcoalition.org -, both nonpartisan, not-for-profit groups of business and four star military leaders committed to promoting policies and actions that facilitate the deployment of electric vehicles on a mass scale in order to combat the economic, environmental, and national security dangers caused by our nation's dependence on petroleum.
