The season finale of S1!! This episode is probably my favorite of the season, where we’re talking all about batteries. With energy storage being such a pivotal issue and batteries being one of the most promising candidates for solving that issue, the development of batteries designed to handle grid scale applications is essential. That’s exactly what StorEn Technologies is working on. This episode features Carlo Brovero, the founder and CEO of StorEn, and he tells me all about his Vanadium flow battery, a new method of battery storage that eliminates the worst issues plaguing lithium ion batteries. What an episode to end on, I hope you’ll be back next season! Check out the website below to connect with Carlo.

We must transition from fossil fuel power plants like coal and natural gas, to renewable resources like solar, wind, and hydro. That’s what Ignacio Fernandes is here to talk about. Having completed hundreds of megawatts of renewable energy and hydrogen projects, he knows this topic very well. As Ignacio will make very clear in this episode, the challenges to carbon free electricity generation are great, but it’s not impossible, and it is an absolutely necessary task.

I Have Never Said That Implementing Renewable Energy To The Extent That Is Needed Would Be Easy, But It Is Possible, Which Is What I'm Talking About Today!

The Challenges Of Renewable Energy At Large Scale with Ignacio Fernandez

https://s3.us-east-2.amazonaws.com/pod-public-media-files/2021/8/2/3/211fc5bd-a510-4b11-bfab-d8e23d9a2597__kist_complete_episodeauphonic_post_production.mp3

If there is one solution to climate change that I would say needs the most further research it would be carbon capture. We need to put some energy into this in order to determine exactly how much carbon capture we should be using and how we should be using it, whether it be eliminating emissions from natural gas or pulling carbon dioxide straight out of the air. There is a wide variety of opinions on all of these pieces, so to get a better idea of exactly what carbon capture is and what it does, I talked to Greg Kist, the co-founder of Blue X Energy. His company Blue X Energy is focussing on finding the best places to store carbon dioxide once we capture it, but he gave me a great rundown on the basics of carbon capture and why it could be the one thing that we need to get to carbon neutrality by 2050. Maybe with carbon capture we can continue to use a fossil fuel like natural gas, or through reforming natural gas into hydrogen and capturing the leftover CO2, the market for hydrogen will boom. Carbon capture in the ways that it’s being talked about today is fairly new, and absolutely fascinating to talk about. Check out the links below for more information on carbon capture.

Politics. Love them or hate them, climate policies on local, national, and international levels are required if we are to successfully integrate renewable energy and all of the other climate technologies talked about in this show, and prevent the worst effects of climate change. In this bonus episode we are going through the most essential pieces of climate policy in Canada, the US, the EU, and internationally. Although I personally find the technology side of climate action much more interesting, it is important to note that putting climate action into law ensures that it is being paid proper attention to by everyone and I mean EVERYONE, because it is much more difficult to dodge a law than a recommendation. I hope you find yourself learning from this episode, and if you listen all the way through there is a fun little surprise at the end you don’t want to miss!

While the Paris Agreement was being forged back in 2015, developing countries shocked the world by leading the way and continually pushing for more ambition out of the Agreement. Developing countries have much lower impacts on climate than more industrialized countries, but, developing countries will suffer much more under climate change than the rest. So we know that developing countries have the drive to change and ensure that they are doing their part to mitigate climate change, but they still require many resources scarce to them; money, natural resources, and perhaps most importantly, expertise. Olaniyi Oyeniyi, my guest this episode takes me through the challenges that countries are facing in sustainably developing and what we need to do to ensure that every nation can develop in a way that is climate friendly.

It is undeniable that electric cars are the way of the future for transportation and mobility. The problem with electric cars is that right now, the majority of electricity produced around the world comes from fossil fuels which kinda defeats the purpose. We need to generate electricity without the burning of fossil fuels. Enter CAPSolar. Samy Benhamza and his company CAPSolar are developing modular solar power arrays that produce electricity to be used in electric vehicles that can be placed directly on top of cars or built directly into the roofs of cars. It is not simply wiring solar panels into your electric engine though, and Samy will tell you all about what it takes to transition electric cars into the realm of 100% renewable energy, all the time. Below are resources for further information on CAPSolar.

Billions of tons of recyclable material and millions of dollars are sent into landfills or the ocean every year because recycling costs money. As essential as recycling is to reduce emissions from producing new material as well as disposing of waste, the system as it is now is not enough. AMP Robotics is using artificial intelligence and robotics to improve speed, accuracy, and ultimately affordability of recycling. Carling Spelhaug from AMP Robotics walks me through how their system works and why automation in recycling is absolutely essential to reducing waste and greenhouse gas emissions.

Its time to celebrate! Well maybe not celebrate but to hope. The last bonus episode was a really tough listen so I made it my goal to make this one as easy as possible. This one is all about why taking action, creating change in our global systems is not just essential but beneficial to absolutely everyone. It can be hard to be positive sometimes because climate action is still largely painted as a cost, but it’s not. By changing the way the world works in ways that reduce emissions, we will create jobs, increase an individual’s control over their own life, raise quality of life and develop new technology that we can’t even imagine yet. We don’t have to choose between saving the planet and paying the rent, we can have both and so much more.

Solar energy is one of the technologies that will be an important part of the global transition to renewable energy, however there is another technology that partners perfectly with solar power - wind. Wind energy is more active at the times when solar isn’t at night, cloudy days, and winter months. This episode is a conversation with Ken Kotalik, the Director of Global Sales for Primus Wind. Primus Wind manufactures small off grid wind turbines that generate clean energy in applications that do not connect to the grid. Their turbines are simple and efficient and coupled with solar, creating a renewable energy system capable of generating power in a variety of conditions. Wind is incredibly important in making renewable energy available around the clock, and Primus is making that happen. Ken Kotalik tells me about how Primus’ turbines work and even more about why wind energy is essential for more widespread implementation of carbon free energy.

Cities are becoming more densely populated as the global population increases and more people move to cities for jobs. This naturally means that cities will become the place that people spend a majority of their time so we need to ensure that cities are built to support the population. While infrastructure development has historically been controlled almost entirely by the municipal government, my guest for this episode has a different vision. Nic Leblanc is developing a new online interface that allows everyday citizens to decide on what they want in their communities.

Electricity is essential to a country&#39;s development. In developing countries such as Ethiopia, connecting to a nation wide grid is incredibly expensive, and energy infrastructure can be a target for conflict and violence. Duncan Lucas is a civil engineering student attending the University of Calgary and he has been working on bringing electricity to energy impoverished communities in Ethiopia for two years now. He and his team have been designing a solar microgrid for the community of Dangla in Ethiopia. Microgrids are fascinating because they allow small communities or other energy systems that can be isolated, such as recreation centers, churches, and campuses, to generate, transmit, and utilize all of their energy in one place. This episode will go into what exactly a microgrid is, as well as their role in making renewable energy available for all, even those who do not connect to larger scale energy projects.

I had no idea that electric motors consume half of global electricity. I also had no idea how outdated the majority of our motor technology is today. Turntide is changing that. Turntide is a company working on incredible new motor technology that uses much simpler electronics that allow for more versatile and efficient energy use. Eric Meyerson is the VP of marketing at Turntide and he talked me through how their motors work and it is actually so incredibly cool. Eric and I also talk about interconnectivity, the Internet of Things, and automation, all things you have probably heard of but maybe don’t completely understand, which would make you exactly like me. Turntide’s combination of new motor technology and their use of interconnectivity is revolutionizing how we use electric motors, and how we operate large buildings or industrial systems in general. Check out the resources below for more information on motors and how they operate.

Making Motors More Efficient With New Technology And Interconnectivity

This Everyday Technology Could Be Changing Forever with Eric Meyerson From Turntide

https://s3.us-east-2.amazonaws.com/pod-public-media-files/2021/6/13/6/ccc87ee6-bb2a-4934-8189-098c93d36d80_s_why_complete_episodeauphonic_post_production.mp3

This episode is a very tough listen, but so incredibly important, all about how we’re destroying the planet, and what that actually means for us humans. The thing is though, if you are at all concerned about climate change, you have to know about these consequences. As much as I love the polar bears and having clean forests, climate change is about more than just nature. The effects of climate change will be felt all over the world, regardless of where you live or how far away it seems. You’ll have to listen to the episode to find out how and why, but there are millions, maybe BILLIONS of human lives at stake here. Climate change is quite possibly the biggest challenge the human species has ever faced, but like me, you probably don’t know why that is. Listen to this short bonus episode to hopefully find the answers to all of your questions. If not, let’s talk about it! Reach out on social media and we will have a conversation.

Energy storage is absolutely essential in order to implement renewable energy on a large scale. Energy storage allows for electricity produced during high production times, to be used in low production times, when the grid may need more energy than it is producing. Konstantin Pushkin, the CEO of AL Technologies may be on to something in his pursuit of aluminum energy storage.He told me all about how it’s resilient and never loses its charge and could be a large scale contributor to the future of how our energy systems operate. Physical forms of fuel such as aluminum and hydrogen make energy storage easy, and I can’t wait to see how both prospects develop.

We need to implement widespread renewable energy, but you might not know that renewable energy projects like solar and wind are already being built around the world, with notable success. Jesse Laine is a renewable energy project director and implementation expert. He tells me about his experience in leading large scale solar plants in California which are now providing sustainable electricity to thousands of homes. We also discuss his work on commercial solar in Ontario and behind the meter energy storage that reduces energy costs for businesses and industry.

Solar Energy For Homes Is Not Only Possible, It's Happening Right Now

Thousands Of Homes Are Being Powered By Solar Energy, Here's How with Jesse Laine

Batteries seem to be one of the biggest barriers to widespread implementation of renewable energy. Right now we primarily use lithium ion batteries, which have served us well for things like personal devices for years now, but they have their issues just like any other technology. The materials used in lithium ion batteries are scarce, expensive, and the opposite of environmentally friendly to extract. So if we are going to use more and more lithium ion batteries, we can’t continue to rely on mining alone to supply the essential materials. That’s where battery recycling and Li-Cycle come in. Li-Cycle is implementing innovative new processes to recycle the most important components of a battery in a way that far and away surpasses the costs of mining, as well as other battery recycling methods. Chris Biederman is the Chief Technology Officer at Li-Cycle, and he talked me through the importance of battery recycling and what Li-Cycle does differently.

Making Lithium Ion Batteries Sustainable and Recycleable

Reduce, Reuse, Li-Cycle with Chris Biederman

Biden has recently released his American Jobs Plan, which is a $2.3 trillion dollar proposal to reinvent the way that the US operates. This bonus episode goes through what the bill entails and what it means for the future of the US. The Plan has been declared one of the most ambitious climate plans put forth by heavily industrialized countries, even though climate isn’t in the name. I usually try to stay away from politics on this show, but bonus episodes like this one will occasionally look at politics because as tiresome as it can seem sometimes, it takes political, systemic changes to make a real difference. Even though I’m not American, I recognize the important role that the US can play in taking action against climate change, so regardless of your political beliefs or even where you live, it’s important to have an idea of what the leaders of our world are thinking. Check out the links below for more information on the Plan, as well as some cool information on Iceland (listen until the end), and an episode from How To Save a Planet that goes through the Plan in more depth.

Who am I?My name is Avry Krywolt, I am a student from Alberta Canada, I am passionate about taking action against climate change, and I am the host of Innovating a Bright Future. I’ve noticed through my own experience that the number of people concerned about climate change is growing quickly. At the same time, the information being presented to the public is, in most cases, a sad sigh of defeat, irrational denialism, or frantic screaming that does no one any good. The fact is that climate change is happening, but it is not hopeless, and you are not powerless. TED speaker and climate scientist Katharine Hayhoe said that “The most important thing you can for climate change is talk about it.” so let’s talk about it. Let’s learn about solar energy and battery storage, let’s dig into green hydrogen, and wind, and the power of water, and the importance of sustainable energy. Let’s learn and let’s discuss. We aren’t doomed, but we have to work hard in order to keep climate change from wreaking real havoc on our world. So let’s get to work.

Transportation of goods and services is one of the most heavily polluting sectors on a global scale. The surprising thing is though, it’s the small trips to the grocery store, and to the soccer fields that are the least efficient. It seems kind of obvious that you don’t need to be driving your 6 seater SUV to pick up your mail but we still do it because we don’t have another option. That is finally starting to change. In this episode I talk to Robert Hoevers from Squad Mobility about his company’s new age solution to this problem - the micro car powered by the sun. Squad Mobility will be implementing their cars in much the same way as other micro-mobility such as shared electric bikes and scooters, making short range transportation convenient, efficient, and most importantly, emission free. When I think futuristic things, solar cars are among the Top 10 things that spring to mind, so this conversation was honestly just so fascinating to me and I hope it is to you as well.

Lorenzo Russo is a nanotechnologist and materials engineer working at Enapter. Enapter is a company working on modular, small size electrolyzers, which allows for the creation of hydrogen from just water and electricity. Hydrogen is a fuel, and is similar in its basic functions to natural gas, except it has absolutely no carbon emissions. Hydrogen represents an incredible opportunity and a technology that is going to be at the core of the transition to renewable energy on a worldwide scale, from mobility, to long term energy storage without batteries. If you’re interested in what nanotechnology is, this is the episode for you, as Lorenzo merges the science behind electrolysis with the fascinating world of nanotech. Below you can find Enapter’s website if you’re interested in learning more about electrolysis and how we can use hydrogen.
