The Big Switch

A preview of season 3: Europe's energy crisis


Listen Later

Russia's invasion of Ukraine sparked supply shortages, fears of blackouts, and a scramble to find new sources of energy.

In this season of The Big Switch we're trying to answer the trillion-dollar question: Will the energy crisis speed up or slow down Europe's clean energy transition? And what will it mean for the rest of the world?

Over the next five episodes, we'll look at Poland and Germany specifically to figure out how they're navigating supply shocks, and planning for the future.

This show is all about trade-offs. This season, we're talking about tradeoffs on a grand scale. Because the decisions Europe makes now in response to this ongoing crisis have consequences around the world.

Season 3 of The Big Switch drops June 28th. Listen on Apple podcasts, Spotify, or wherever you get your podcasts.
