An Electric Revolution
Podcast Description
Clean energy is under attack like never before.
President Donald Trump has said “the wind is bullshit.” Right-wing parties in Europe have opposed climate legislation introduced by the European Union.
There has never been a more important time to understand the real history of clean energy—how did we get here, who were the pioneers, and why has it taken so long to come of age?
An Electric Revolution dives deep into the untold story of clean energy, from its groundbreaking origins to its present-day battles.

China has introduced new export license rules for advanced lithium iron phosphate (LFP) battery materials—potentially restricting global EV and clean energy supply chains.
In this episode, I speak with Dan Blondal, CEO of Nano One Materials, one of the few companies outside China developing LFP technology.
We discuss what the new rules mean for the market, China’s head start in high-density LFP, and how innovation like Nano One’s “one-pot process” could make North American production more competitive.
