Above all, the sections on the "wisdom of the market" are my favourites. You'll also hear sections where we disagree, which is key to exploring future power system concepts.
Must-listen if you're tracking the GB power market's transition

🚛 How hauliers consider the transition and why that might move far quicker than forecasters expect
⚡ What might the next generation of demand hubs look like, and how do you find them
A pleasure to host Mikey Clark from Relode on innovating in demand and delivering power at scale.
Some sections I really liked:
🧑🔧 Apprenticeships and getting started in energy - how you can approach this and why you'll have a massive impact (that's in the final third)
This snippet from FES is quite good for electrification
On the left - how fast we can move to change heating in homes - see town gas. This needs to apply to heat pumps.
On the left - how fast an EV transition can happen - see Norway (btw when the tech was way worse)
10GW of batteries in ERCOT - the energy landscape is changing quickly

If you want to check out the episode discussing pumped storage, batteries and the future of gas in Europe, that's in the usual places
"hydrogen history includes memorable combustion experiments" is a particular choice of words.
Always important to mention Cobalt, especially when competitors are moving to LFP.
How does consumer flexibility impact the Clean Power goals and reduce costs to consumers?

This was a lot of fun to do!
🔋 How grid flexibility is changing with the emergence of battery storage
🔋 Why the future grid may be more reliable than the past, e.g. on grid forming and battery storage
🔋 A few power system quirks, e.g. on negative prices
