Bad Bunny's Super Bowl Nod to the Peurto Rican Power Grid

Why Bad Bunny's Super Bowl halftime show included a very real reference to the fragility of Puerto Rico's power grid, and what that says about outages, inequality, and the island's long fight for energy reliability. We also cover Japan restarting the world's largest nuclear power plant, and why nuclear is suddenly back in the conversation as countries chase carbon neutrality. In Canada, the federal government is officially bringing back EV rebates, with $2.3B in funding over five years, new eligibility rules, and a $50,000 price cap that leads to some… interesting conversations about who actually benefits. Plus: Australia's grid batteries are exploding in size, battery costs keep falling, and we look at what the last 10 years of EV growth tells us about what the next decade could look like. After the Lightning Round, climate lawyer Glenn Wright joins via letter with an update on coal litigation in Saskatchewan, the backlash facing local communities fighting coal, and a petition that needs signatures before the spring session.
