In Ep. 270 Lord Adair Turner, co-chair of the Energy Transitions Commission in London, shares with us his wide-ranging, high-level perspective on the energy transition in the UK and the world. xenetwork.org/ets/episodes...
In @TransitionShow Ep. 276, we check out one of the most exciting #energytransition stories in the world: South Africa is embarking on a major reform of its electricity system to transition from a state-owned monopoly to a free market, and from coal to renewables. xenetwork.org/ets/episodes...
In @transitionshow.bsky.social Ep. 277, we wrap up our miniseries on South Africa, exploring how its economic development depends heavily on leaving behind its coal-fired legacy electricity system and making a “just transition” to renewables. xenetwork.org/ets/episodes...
In Ep. 275, we review a report from @350.org on the cost of delaying the energy transition, and see how the energy transition is helping countries limit the economic damage they are suffering from the global energy crisis resulting from the war in Iran. xenetwork.org/ets/episodes...
In Ep. 272, oil analyst @roryjohnston.bsky.social explains why the Iran war has thrown the world into uncharted territory, with unprecedented high prices ahead. Are you ready for record high gasoline prices? This episode is not paywalled, so enjoy & share widely! xenetwork.org/ets/episodes...

In Ep. 274, @ember-energy.org’s @nicolasfulghum.bsky.social walks us through all the data in their new Global Electricity Review 2026 report. Renewables are finally pushing fossil fuels off the grid and power sector emissions are declining globally for the first time. xenetwork.org/ets/episodes...
In Ep. 272, Tom Brown @nworbmot.bsky.social shares a new model which shows that by 2030, solar and batteries could supply 90% of electricity to 80% of the global population for less than €80/MWh. It would not only be cost-effective, but also likely cheaper than gas. xenetwork.org/ets/episodes...
In Ep. 269, @aripeskoe.bsky.social rejoins us to review Trump’s attacks on the energy transition in the US and explore the legal options for defending it. Wind farms, solar farms, coal plants, regulations,Venezuela, UN climate bodies, oh my! xenetwork.org/ets/episodes...
In Ep. 271, @laurimyllyvirta.bsky.social rejoins us to tease apart the complex picture of China’s energy transition. Listen and learn why China’s total CO2 emissions have been falling for the past two years even while it’s building more coal power plants than ever. xenetwork.org/ets/episodes...
