Are EVs the key to reducing energy costs and cutting emissions in Australia? In this episode, we’re joined by Doug McNamee, Founder and CEO of JOLT, and Rob Amphlett Lewis, Group Executive - Distributed Services & PLUS ES at Ausgrid, to unpack the challenges and opportunities in the EV space.



Together, they tackle the pressing questions: Why has the EV transition slowed in Australia? Is our grid ready to handle the surge in EV adoption? What’s being done to make EV charging more accessible at home and beyond? They also explore Ausgrid’s role in driving the shift towards an electric future and discuss the pivotal infrastructure needed to support widespread EV uptake.

How can we integrate renewables into the grid at lightning speed? In this episode, we’re joined by Junayd Hollis, Group Executive - Customer, Assets & Digital at Ausgrid, and Eamon Waterford, CEO of the Committee for Sydney, to explore strategies for fast-tracking the energy transition.

Together, they dive into the big questions: Are we doing enough to drive change? How can households and businesses play a bigger role? What lessons can we learn from other regions further along their renewable journey? They also discuss the potential of unlocking rooftop solar, the balance between large-scale and local generation, and whether a focus on distribution networks could help us speed up progress while reducing costs.
