Sure, we've got to electrify everything, including 1 billion machines by 2050. But where are we now and how do we get there?
That's today's big question, and my guest is Cora Wyent from Rewiring America.
Cora is the Director of Research at Rewiring America, where she's conducting research and analysis to enable rapid electrification of everything in the economy.
Prior to joining Rewiring America, Cora completed her PhD in physics at Caltech, where she studied new materials for ultra thin solar cells and performed techno economic analysis of new photovoltaic and carbon capture technologies.
Before that, she received her bachelor's degree in physics from the beautiful UNC Chapel Hill.
If you're new here, you should know this is another in our continuing series on electrifying every building and car in America, including your home, whether you own it or whether you rent.
We've partnered with the best in the business at Rewiring America to understand where we need to all go on the whole, what we can do, and how you can get started on your own journey.
And of course, to unlock an easier path for everyone else.
