About the show
The world needs reliable, affordable, and clean electricity everywhere. We need electricity so abundant that it powers jobs, boosts innovation, and improves living standards at massive scale. And so universal that no person’s potential is wasted because energy is too limited or expensive where they live.
High Energy Planet by the Energy for Growth Hub explores how we build that future.
This season, host Katie Auth digs into the United States’ changing role shaping energy investments in emerging economies after the Trump administration upended U.S. global policy and diplomacy. What’s going on behind the scenes in DC? How are countries responding? And where do we go from here?
Katie will put these questions to some of the most interesting and creative thinkers on climate, energy, and development.
