The global car industry is undergoing significant shifts, as the geography of car production evolves, new regions drive sales growth, and electric cars expand consumer choices.   In this episode, IEA Energy Technology Analysts Elizabeth Connelly and Leonardo Paoli – the lead authors of a recent report (https://eur03.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.iea.org%2Freports%2Fwhat-next-for-the-global-car-industry&data=05%7C02%7CRob.STONE%40iea.org%7Cf6495a2d898c472aeb5708de4f6f2963%7Cfe3d9bf9cec443618b78e6f3edbaa3d0%7C0%7C0%7C639035536030970310%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJFbXB0eU1hcGkiOnRydWUsIlYiOiIwLjAuMDAwMCIsIlAiOiJXaW4zMiIsIkFOIjoiTWFpbCIsIldUIjoyfQ%3D%3D%7C0%7C%7C%7C&sdata=j1s0BqaDQPnQduJptVzraytAGO8xBxJTwgVwAqFVoTk%3D&reserved=0) on thttps://cdn.ctv.group/tv/videos/1000408/740147/master.m3u89702026-03-26https://deeplink.m2n.ctv.group/video/1000408,740149https://cdn.ctv.group/tv/images/1000408/740149.jpgPodcast episode: What’s driving the surge in energy jobs?The global energy sector is adding jobs twice as fast as the overall economy. But where is this growth coming from? And with skills shortages increasing, can it keep up the momentum?   In this episode, IEA analysts Elspeth Hathaway and Rebecca Ruff – two authors of the World Energy Employment (https://www.iea.org/reports/world-energy-employment-2025) report – dive into the latest data. They talk about who works in the energy sector, what’s been driving the strong rise in energy jobs globally, and how to tackle growing skills gaps, which could otherwise complicate efforts by countries to meet rising energy demand securely and affordably.https://cdn.ctv.group/tv/videos/1000408/740149/master.m3u89172026-03-26https://deeplink.m2n.ctv.group/video/1000408,740154https://cdn.ctv.group/tv/images/1000408/740154.jpgThe shifting geography of energy demandFor many decades, global energy demand was mainly concentrated in wealthy, industrialised economies such as the United States, Europe and Japan. That has changed in the 21st century as China’s rapid economic growth moved the centre of gravity eastward, with the country driving more than half of global oil and gas demand growth and 60% of electricity demand growth since 2010.   Now, the landscape is shifting again. Emerging economies – led by India and Southeast Asia, and joined by countries in the Middle East, Latin America and Africa – are poised to take the baton from China. This brings new opportunities and challenges that will affect energy markets for years to come.   In this episode, Ali Saffar, Head of the IEA’s Europe, Middle East, Africa and Latin America Division, and IEA energy analyst Siddharth Singh explore how energy demand has evolved over the past half-century and share insights on what lies ahead, based on new analysis (https://www.iea.org/reports/world-energy-https://cdn.ctv.group/tv/videos/1000408/740154/master.m3u814912026-03-26https://deeplink.m2n.ctv.group/video/1000408,740156https://cdn.ctv.group/tv/images/1000408/740156.jpgWhere does the world’s electricity come from?When many people think about energy, electricity comes to mind. The bedrock of modern societies and economies, it powers everything from home appliances to factory machinery – keeping the lights on, trains running and much more – although a great deal more work is needed to ensure universal access to it worldwide. Globally, electricity demand is rising quickly. So, in this episode, we speak with IEA Electricity Analyst Eren Çam. He explains which sources the world’s power comes from today and how that mix could evolve in the years ahead – as well as how countries can ramp up electricity supply securely and affordably.https://cdn.ctv.group/tv/videos/1000408/740156/master.m3u810592026-03-26https://deeplink.m2n.ctv.group/video/1000406,740166https://cdn.ctv.group/tv/images/1000406/740166.jpgSecretary Howard Lutnick on Critical Minerals & American Economic Security5:15 pm Keynote with Secretary of Commerce, Hon.

More details on the scenarios in the report can be found in this commentary (https://www.iea.org/commentaries/scenarios-in-the-world-energy-outlook-2025) .https://cdn.ctv.group/tv/videos/1000408/740160/master.m3u819362026-03-26https://deeplink.m2n.ctv.group/video/1000408,740175https://cdn.ctv.group/tv/images/1000408/740175.jpgHow energy will shape the future of AI (and vice versa)While the history of artificial intelligence is long, ChatGPT’s public launch in late 2022 captured the world’s attention and pushed AI to the top of business and political agendas. Just a few years later, AI has evolved into an industry worth trillions of dollars that is already transforming how we live and work. Yet any conversation about the future of AI inevitably leads to the topic of energy.   In this episode, host Dan Hewitt speaks with Thomas Spencer and Siddharth Singh, lead authors of the IEA’s groundbreaking new report, Energy and AI (https://www.iea.org/reports/energy-and-ai) . They unpack why the huge expectations for AI hinge on meeting fast-growing demand for electricity from data centres, and how the IEA developed authoritative global projections for AI’s energy demand over the next decade. They also describe the ways AI is already transforming the energy sector, as well as AI’s implications for energy security and global emissions.https://cdn.ctv.group/tv/videos/1000408/740175/master.m3u818902026-03-26https://deeplink.m2n.ctv.group/video/1000408,740177https://cdn.ctv.group/tv/images/1000408/740177.jpgWhere the money is going in energyFor the past 10 years, the IEA’s World Energy Investment (https://www.iea.org/reports/world-energy-investment-2025) report has been the definitive guide to where money is going in the global energy sector. It breaks down the latest data for all the key fuels, technologies and industries.   In a context of heightened geopolitical and economic uncertainty, global energy investment is set to reach a record $3.3 trillion in 2025. In this episode, we’re joined by Cecilia Tam, Head of the IEA’s Energy Investment Unit. She unpacks the report’s key themes – from how energy security concerns are driving investment decisions, to China’s position as the single biggest investor in energy, and why so much money is going into electricity.https://cdn.ctv.group/tv/videos/1000408/740177/master.m3u813462026-03-26https://deeplink.m2n.ctv.group/video/1000408,740179https://cdn.ctv.group/tv/images/1000408/740179.jpgThe fastest growing energy technology on the marketWhen you think of batteries, you might picture charging a phone or laptop. But it’s the energy industry that has transformed the battery market over the past decade. Today, over 90% of battery demand comes from the energy sector, driven by record-breaking electric car sales and the rapid growth of battery storage to support power grids around the world. In this episode, we hear from Teo Lombardo, an IEA analyst specialising in batteries, and Araceli Fernandez Pales, the head of the IEA’s Technology Innovation Unit. They explain how batteries work and their role in modern energy systems, as well as why prices have fallen dramatically in recent years and what innovations could drive further growth.https://cdn.ctv.group/tv/videos/1000408/740179/master.m3u815692026-03-26https://deeplink.m2n.ctv.group/video/1000408,740181https://cdn.ctv.group/tv/images/1000408/740181.jpgTackling a major energy injusticeToday, four in five families in African countries cook with fuels such as wood and charcoal over open fires or basic stoves. This leads to more than 800,000 premature deaths each year. But new IEA analysis shows that momentum is building to address this critical issue – opening a pathway to reach universal access to clean cooking in Africa by 2040. In this episode, we hear from Syrine El Abed, IEA Africa Programme Manager, and Dan Wetzel, Head of the IEA’s Tracking Sustainable Transitions Unit. They explain what the lack of clean cooking supplies means in practice, what the latest data reveals, what more can be done to close the access gap, and why the energy sector is key to solving this challenge.https://cdn.ctv.group/tv/videos/1000408/740181/master.m3u814072026-03-26https://deeplink.m2n.ctv.group/video/1000408,740413https://cdn.ctv.group/tv/images/1000408/740413.jpg10 ways to ease oil price pressures on consumersOil prices have surged amid the war in the Middle East, putting pressures on consumers around the world. To help address the supply disruptions, the IEA is coordinating the largest ever release of oil from countries’ emergency reserves. But actions on the demand side can also play a key role.

While Ukraine made strong strides in rebuilding and strengthening the resilience of its energy system this past spring and summer, the situation remains fragile. The risk of major disruptions to electricity and heating in the coming months remains – particularly as Russia expands the scope and sophistication of its attacks on energy infrastructure.   This episode draws on insights from the most recent IEA visit to Kyiv in October. Talya Vatman, the IEA’s Caspian and Black Sea Programme Manager, shares what she heard from Ukrainians – including representatives from government and the energy sector – and highlights recent IEA analysis on how Ukraine and its partners can address the country’s urgent energy security and bolster longer-term energy resilience.https://cdn.ctv.group/tv/videos/1000408/740159/master.m3u813002026-03-26https://deeplink.m2n.ctv.group/video/1000408,740176https://cdn.ctv.group/tv/images/1000408/740176.jpgWhat’s next for electric cars and trucks?The automotive industry has faced major challenges in recent years, from pandemic-driven supply chain shocks to inflation and geopolitical uncertainty. But amid the turmoil, global sales of electric vehicles have continued to break records.    In 2024, more than one in five cars sold globally were electric, and this year it's expected to be one in four. In some parts of the world, EVs are now cheaper than conventional cars. But what's driving these trends? Who's making these cars? How are we charging them? And how is their uptake reshaping the world’s energy system?    In this episode, we speak with IEA Energy Technology and Transport Analyst Elizabeth Connelly to answer these questions and unpack the 2025 edition of the IEA's annual Global EV Outlook, out now.https://cdn.ctv.group/tv/videos/1000408/740176/master.m3u813302026-03-26https://deeplink.m2n.ctv.group/video/1000408,740178https://cdn.ctv.group/tv/images/1000408/740178.jpgThe forces shaping oil marketsOil markets have faced significant turbulence this year. Heightened geopolitical risks, trade tensions and policy shifts have all affected the outlook. At the same time, the major drivers of supply and demand over the past 15 years are losing momentum, signalling that a deeper transformation of markets is underway.   In this episode, Toril Bosoni, Head of the IEA’s Oil Industry and Markets Division, unpacks the latest developments, speaking about the forces shaping oil markets today, how resilient they could be to tensions in the Middle East and elsewhere, and what the oil market might look like in the years ahead.https://cdn.ctv.group/tv/videos/1000408/740178/master.m3u89982026-03-26https://deeplink.m2n.ctv.group/video/1000406,740165https://cdn.ctv.group/tv/images/1000406/740165.jpgUnlocking Ukraine's Mineral Riches: U.S. Partnership & Reconstruction3:45 pm Implementing the U.S.-Ukraine Critical Minerals Partnership A Fireside Chat with Ambassador of Ukraine to the U.S. Olha Stefanishyna and Conor Coleman, Head of Investments at the U.S. International Development Finance Corporation Moderator: Dr. Seth G.

In this episode of the IEA’s Everything Energy podcast, which is back from an extended break, we delve into this topic, guided by a brand-new IEA report.   The Global Energy Review 2025 (https://www.iea.org/reports/global-energy-review-2025) is the first assessment of 2024 trends across the energy sector based on the latest data. It shows that growth in energy demand surged in 2024 to almost twice its recent average as the consumption of electricity rose around the world.    Why is this so significant? What fuels and technologies helped meet the increase in demand? And what has been the effect on global emissions? Host Dan Hewitt and Laura Cozzi, the IEA’s Director of Sustainability, Technology and Outlooks, discuss these questions and more.https://cdn.ctv.group/tv/videos/1000408/740172/master.m3u816992026-03-26https://deeplink.m2n.ctv.group/video/1000408,740174https://cdn.ctv.group/tv/images/1000408/740174.jpgThe nuclear energy comebackThis year, electricity generated from nuclear power is set to reach a record high. Dozens of nuclear reactors are currently under construction, and government support for the sector is at its highest level since the oil crisis in the 1970s. These trends point to a major global comeback for nuclear energy after a prolonged period of stagnation.   In this episode, host Dan Hewitt is joined by Brent Wanner, the head of the IEA’s Power Sector Unit. Drawing on important findings from a recent IEA report, The Path to a New Era for Nuclear Energy (https://www.iea.org/reports/the-path-to-a-new-era-for-nuclear-energy) , they discuss the factors driving nuclear energy’s renewed momentum. They also dig into the key challenges, such as project delays and cost overruns, that need to be overcome for it to play a more significant role in the future energy landscape.https://cdn.ctv.group/tv/videos/1000408/740174/master.m3u817612026-03-26https://deeplink.m2n.ctv.group/video/1000408,740472https://cdn.ctv.group/tv/images/1000408/740472.jpgSpecial keynote address by His Majesty Letsie III, King of LesothoLearn more: https://www.iea.org/events/10th-annual-global-conference-on-energy-efficiency Special keynote address by His Majesty Letsie III, King of Lesothohttps://cdn.ctv.group/tv/videos/1000408/740472/master.m3u818472025-06-10https://deeplink.m2n.ctv.group/video/1000406,740234https://cdn.ctv.group/tv/images/1000406/740234.jpgStrait of Hormuz and Global Oil Prices: Shocks, Inventories, and Supply Flows | Energy ShotsGeopolitical shocks in critical chokepoints can send ripple effects through global energy markets. One of the most important of these chokepoints is the Strait of Hormuz, where a significant portion of the world’s oil supply passes each day. In this episode of Energy Shots, Joseph Majkut and Kevin Book examine how markets might respond to a disruption in the Strait of Hormuz and what factors actually determine the impact on oil prices. They break down the relationship between supply shocks, global oil inventories (stocks), and the flow of barrels into the market, explaining why inventories can buffer disruptions and why strategic reserves can only partially offset lost supply. The discussion also explores how trade policy and broader energy supply chains shape the long-term resilience of global energy markets. Topics covered: • Why the Strait of Hormuz matters for global oil supply • How markets respond to geopolitical shocks • The role of oil inventories in stabilizing priceshttps://cdn.ctv.group/tv/videos/1000406/740234/master.m3u813732026-03-09https://deeplink.m2n.ctv.group/video/1000406,740384https://cdn.ctv.group/tv/images/1000406/740384.jpgVenezuela, Oil Sanctions, and the U.S. Strategy to Reshape Global Energy | Energy ShotsThe U.S. has seized oil tankers, detained Nicolás Maduro, and signaled a dramatic shift in Venezuela policy—with oil at the center of it all. In this episode of Energy Shots, Joseph Majkut and Kevin Book break down what just happened, why oil markets barely moved, and what could come next. The conversation explores: • Why Venezuela’s 300B barrels of reserves matter—but haven’t moved prices • Heavy sour crude, refinery complexity, and where Venezuelan oil can actually go • How sanctions distort oil pricing—and how lifting them could change revenues • A potential escrow model for Venezuelan oil sales • The implications for U.S. refiners, domestic producers, and Canada • Whether Venezuelan oil could indirectly help refill the Strategic Petroleum Reserve • What oil executives will demand before investing billions in Venezuela • Why political guarantees matter more than geology A clear-eyed, data-driven look at how geopolitics, sanctions, and oil markets collide.

These two industries emit nearly as much CO2 as our entire electricity system -- but they’re difficult to decarbonize. We’ll talk about challenges and potential solutions to do so, including changing their production processes, replacing the coal they now require, and more efficient use. Discussing with Dr. Scott Tinker is: - Dr. Rebecca Dell, Senior Director for Industry at the ClimateWorks Foundation, former Lead Analyst at the US Department of Energy, and former Researcher at Scripps Institute - Samantha Gross, Director of the Energy Security and Climate initiatve at Brookings Institute and former Director of the Office of Climate and Clean Energy at the US Department of Energy Originally aired 4/3/2024 on PBS.

This month, Seb explores the EU’s upcoming Circular Economy Act and its shift toward positioning circularity as industrial strategy, not just environmental policy. We look at new global data revealing rapid growth in national circular economy roadmaps, and why implementation is now the real test. We also dive into the growing link between circular economy and critical mineral supply chains — from insights at the World Economic Forum to new analysis on EV batteries and material security. Finally, we examine a major UK industry push for a mandatory textiles Extended Producer Responsibility scheme, and what it could mean for transforming one of the economy’s most linear sectors.

This enables businesses to generate more revenue from one item. As a result, businesses are shifting their metrics beyond short-term profit to embrace the long-term strategic advantages of circular business models. In this episode of The Circular Economy Show, host Fin is joined by Emily Hill, Director of Sustainable Transformation Practice at Kantar, to discuss measurement guidance that will allow marketing teams to support the shift to circular business models and behaviours at scale, while delivering on their key priorities. Emily explains how marketers can redefine success across four key areas: Commercial, Brand, Creative, and Consumer Insight. From building a compelling business case for pilots, to using creative campaigns to shift consumer behaviour, we explore how measurement can be a powerful tool to unlock resources for circular initiatives.

Breakthroughs in DNA Editing Transforms Health Care #news #science #rdna #dnaHow did breakthroughs in DNA editing transform modern health care? DNA is a biological molecule that contains the instructions used to make all known life. In the 1950s, scientists discovered that bacteria contain extra loops of DNA. In nature, bacteria can swap these loops, quickly transferring beneficial genes. In the 1970s, U.S. National Science Foundation-supported researchers demonstrated that they could use these loops to insert a gene from one species into a different bacterial species, creating recombinant DNA or rDNA. Editing DNA allowed researchers to direct bacteria or single-celled organisms like yeast to produce and replicate beneficial proteins from other organisms. Refined rDNA breakthroughs enabled applications across medicine, agriculture and manufacturing and gave rise to the now multibillion-dollar biotechnology industry. In 1982, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration approved the very first medical product produced from rDNA technology, a biosynthetic human inshttps://cdn.ctv.group/tv/videos/1000407/740528/master.m3u8902026-03-03https://deeplink.m2n.ctv.group/video/1000407,740545https://cdn.ctv.group/tv/images/1000407/740545.jpgWhat was Megalodon?

It was a minor detail that proved to be a major sticking point for advancements in nuclear science, and after Harley Wilhelm and Frank Spedding developed a process of purifying the rare material, they continued to work on other materials science problems into the Atomic Age. Ames Lab turned 75 in 2022, and to recognize all of the work we've done so far we made a short video to take a trip down memory lane. Each decade saw major shifts in the kinds of material questions science was asking, and Ames Lab has developed a knack for answering them.

Science For KidsWhat's are Newton's 3 Laws of Motion? Sir Isaac Newton was a famous scientist that lived almost 400 years ago. He is famous for learning and understanding how and why objects move – like when an apple falls to the ground from a tree. The first is called the Law of Inertia and explains why things move. It says that, “An object at rest stays at rest, and an object in motions stays in motion at its same speed and direction … unless acted upon by another force.” Newton’s second law talks about how objects change when a force acts on it. This law says, “The acceleration of an object is directly proportional to the net force acting on it and inversely proportional to its mass.” Which brings us to Newton’s Third Law of Motion. For every reaction, there is an equal and opposite reaction. 00:00 Newton's 3 Laws of Motion 00:28 Newton’s First Law of Motion 00:55 Newton’s Second Law of Motion 02:10 Newton’s Third Law of Motionhttps://cdn.ctv.group/tv/videos/1000407/740534/master.m3u81932024-12-28https://deeplink.m2n.ctv.group/video/1000407,740537https://cdn.ctv.group/tv/images/1000407/740537.jpgThe Water Cycle!

A powerful quantum computer could help scientists find new superconducting materials, new medicines and other valuable substances hidden throughout nature. Quantum computers process information using quantum bits, or qubits, based on quantum mechanical states that occur at the tiny scale of molecules, atoms and electrons. 'Quantum computers are able to process and store data in ways that are impossible using standard computing machinery.' Chris Monroe is an NSF-supported researcher. While a regular computer bit can be either zero or one, a qubit can be used in a combination of both states. That uniquely quantum phenomenon is called superposition and is key to how quantum computers could one day solve problems far too complex for the fastest supercomputers in use today. “I think for people to fully appreciate the power of quantum computers and to accelerate their use in different fields, people should be learning the fundamentals of quhttps://cdn.ctv.group/tv/videos/1000407/740523/master.m3u8902026-01-22https://deeplink.m2n.ctv.group/video/1000407,740530https://cdn.ctv.group/tv/images/1000407/740530.jpgWhat is Oceanography?
