In this episode of the Fully Charged Show Podcast Robert is joined by Chris O'Riley, CEO of BC Hydro. As British Columbia's electricity utility, BC Hydro manages a vast network of dams and powerhouses, providing power to over five million people.In this episode, Chris delves into the challenges of meeting growing electricity demand while ensuring the reliability and sustainability of BC Hydro's infrastructure. They discuss the importance of upgrading and operating decade-old dams, as well as the ongoing efforts to balance energy supply with a call for power. Enjoy this conversation on the future of electricity in British Columbia. Chris will be joining Robert on stage at Everything Electric Canada on 6th, 7th, 8th September. 

On this episode of the Fully Charged Show Podcast, Robert welcomes Texan Sharon Wilson. Sharon began her career in the oil & gas industry but is now a leading figure in "methane hunting." As a certified optical gas imaging thermographer, she travels across the U.S., exposing the invisible methane pollution from oil and gas facilities. Sharon uses this technology to educate policymakers, media, and industry leaders through tours.

Sharon's dedication to documenting methane emissions and advocating for environmental accountability arose from a personal experience. Unaware of the environmental impact, she purchased 42 acres in Wise County, Texas, bordering the LBJ National Grasslands. Unbeknownst to her, George Mitchell was experimenting with fracking techniques in the area. Witnessing firsthand the devastating effects of fracking, with air turning brown and water turning black, she documented her experience on her blog, texassharon.com. This experience led Sharon and her son to relocate to Denton, Texas, seeking a cleaner environment. However, this move ultimately fueled her passion for environmental advocacy. In 2010, she joined Earthworks' Oil & Gas Accountability Project, making it her life's work. Enjoy Sharon's incredible story!

Electrify America is installing more rapid chargers across the United States than you can poke a stick at. They currently have over 800 charging stations with around 3,500 individual chargers from 150 kW up to 350 kW. They are currently installing 4 new charging stations or hubs every week. This is a seriously rapid roll out. Electrify America have developed ways to reduce strain on local grids with their installation of multiple rapid chargers. Robert Barrosa is the Senior Director of Sales, Business Development & Marketing for Electrify America, and in this week’s episode of the Fully Charged Show Podcast, he explains how this is being achieved and a little bit about the history of the funding that has made much of this expansion possible. In late 2016, the U.S. Justice Department fined VW $30 billion after the company was caught rigging two of its diesel engines to pass U.S. emissions tests. That figure included the funding new zero-emissions vehicle technology and in particular charging networks. Quite a sensible way of using the money from a corporate fine.

Welcome to another episode of the Fully Charged Show Podcast! In this episode, our host Robert Llewellyn sits down with Dr. Anant Patel, a doctor based at the Royal Free Hospital in London. Together, they delve into the critical topic of air pollution and the myths of 'clean' diesel.
