Using narrative-based storytelling, current and historical case studies, and incisive analysis, Lott walks listeners step-by-step through the solutions and tradeoffs of the energy transition.
In the first season, The Big Switch examines the backbone of decarbonization: the power grid.
The Big Switch recounts stories about the disaster that unfolded in Texas this February and tries to answer the question: what does it tell us about the decisions we need to make around reliability, resiliency and decarbonization as we strive toward a net-zero electricity system?
The show aims to give a broader group of people — concerned citizens, activists, students, policymakers, and other professionals — a deeper understanding of how to tackle climate change. And to successfully tell stories about the solutions, the stakeholders, the tradeoffs, and the differing opinions of how to get there.
