This week: where does the COVID detour take us as we map the energy transition?

We’re once again thinking through the practical and theoretical consequences of the pandemic, in the near-term and well into the future. 

Shayle and Stephen talk with Ramez Naam, a futurist, science-fiction author and energy expert. Ramez joined us last August to talk about some future scenarios for energy. The world is a dramatically different place today, so we’re bringing him back to recalibrate our sights.

We’ll talk about a wide range of subjects, including: oil consumption, behavior changes, demand for electric cars, and whether we’re delaying the energy transition.

The Interchange is brought to you by Prisma Energy Solutions.
