Future Energy
Clean and renewable energy policy gets worked through by the people who actually have to implement it, in this full-length entry from the Clean Energy Series television broadcast. Host and producer Jacob Kamhis brings in a state government official, a representative from the local utility, an economist, a business representative, and an environmental advocate, letting each argue their corner of the same problem: how to move an electrical grid off fossil fuels without breaking budgets or reliability. The format stays close to a panel discussion, with each guest weighing in on solar, wind, and hydropower from their own institutional vantage point rather than a narrator summarizing consensus. Where the interests genuinely conflict, such as utility costs against environmental targets, the disagreement is left on screen instead of resolved for the viewer. It plays less like advocacy and more like a public hearing on what a regional shift to clean energy actually requires.
