Bill Loveless sat down with CEOs of two of the biggest utilities in the US: Tom Fanning of Southern Company (0:36) and Lynn Good of Duke Energy (21:24). The conversations touched on the changing landscape of the power sector from stagnant demand and technological innovation to new business models and environmental regulations.
This week host Bill Loveless talks with author and journalist Jeff Goodell about his new book “The Heat Will Kill You First: Life and Death on a Scorched Planet”.
It has now been just over a year since the US signed into law the Inflation Reduction Act and already, it has been followed by more than US $110 billion in clean energy investments.
