Smarter Cooling Is On the Way

From The Clean Energy Show James Whittingham and Brian Stockton

Electric vehicles continue their remarkable rise around the world, and this week we take a look at the latest global trends from the IEA to see just how far the transition has come since The Clean Energy Show launched in 2020. We also explore new ways to keep the power grid stable during dangerous heat waves, why solar power just hit another major milestone in the United States, and the UK's new mileage-based road tax for EVs. Plus, Brian records this episode from beautiful Victoria, British Columbia, at one of Canada's most sustainable hotels.
