ABOUT THIS EPISODE
It’s about that time again. You sent in great questions for Shayle, and in this episode we’re tackling them with the help of Sarah Golden, vice president of energy at GreenBiz. Together Shayle and Sarah cover topics like:
- Load growth and whether data-center demand is good or bad for decarbonization.
- The crash in photovoltaic module prices and what it means for the solar industry.
- The impact of interest rates on climatetech.
- The challenges of siting carbon dioxide pipelines.
- Why there’s no clear winning technology for carbon dioxide removal.
- European energy companies acquiring U.S. companies.
- Why Shayle is bullish on the macro grid, despite the slow pace of interconnection and transmission buildout.
Plus: volcanoes, Frankenstein, and Shayle’s childhood with geodes.

A decade ago, DERs were hot. The hype was that things like batteries, smart devices, and other distributed energy technologies would offset the need for expanding traditional grid infrastructure.
But DERs never took off, at least not at the scale that many hoped for. They had high price tags and s…
Diesel generators remain ubiquitous because they offer an unusually powerful combination of low cost, high energy density, long-duration storage, and reliable off-grid power. But their pollution, noise, maintenance requirements, permitting challenges, and growing footprint are becoming increasingly…
Everyone loves to talk about the “broken grid.” But if you look inside a utility’s planning and operations functions, a different picture emerges: infrastructure that is remarkably reliable, built and run by engineers solving impossibly complex problems with often outdated tools.
