The Power Hour | How the States are Fighting to Keep the Lights On with Mario Loyola and Austin Gae

from Heard at Heritage · host The Heritage Foundation

The Power Hour is a weekly podcast that discusses the most interesting energy and environmental policy issues of the day with top national experts.  Jack is joined this week by his Heritage Foundation colleagues Mario Loyola and Austin Gae to discuss how states are taking matters into their own hands to ensure that their electricity grids remain robust and reliable.   Mario and Austin give us a sneak peek into their soon to be published research paper on how Texas is responding and Mario tells us about his recent Wall Street Journal article explaining how intermittent energy like wind and solar can drive up energy costs.  You can check out more of Mario’s research here and follow Austin on X @ausga123. If you haven’t already, check out Jack’s book, Nuclear Revolution  and for an outstanding overview of how nuclear energy works, check out our documentary Powering America. Join the conversation at  [email protected]!  Thank you for listening and please don’t forget to subscribe and help us to spread the word.
