E325: Never Waste a Good Crisis
from Energypreneurs Hosted by Sohail Hasnie
The Philippines has one of the best renewable energy laws in the world, one of the highest electricity tariffs relative to income, and 278 island communities still running on diesel. Something doesn't add up. Ruth Yu Owen — CEO of UpGrade Energy Philippines, chair of two national energy committees, and one of the most connected people in Philippine clean energy — joins Sohail to explain why political will is the only variable that matters, and why this crisis might finally supply it. Solar. Batteries. EVs. The technology is ready. The question is whether the Philippines moves in months or decades.
