The best guest roster in Australian renewables, just DL needs to PLEASE ask one question at a time and prepare questions! And give up the banker gags. Still, a must listen.

I never fail to tune in each week to listen to Giles & David - unfailingly well worth a listen Gents, I’d love to hear a session from you with Andrew Dyer the Australian Energy Infrastructure Commissioner on the topic of Social Licence some time soon …

Really enjoying this podcast - I’m learning a lot and it’s a good mix of up-to-date news, interviews and knowledge about the energy transition. They need a bit of help with sound production and quality though! Frequently have different volume levels for different speakers, sometimes one speaker...Read full review »

Love listening to the podcast however can lift their game with the production quality- the recorded voices are not levelled, meaning I have to have the AirPods at full volume for the hosts and then turn down for the guests or vice versa

Great guests interesting perspectives and a lot of debunking of myths…

Can be informative and factual when David and Giles stop talking and the guests start.
DavidGafa via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 09/24/21
Giles and David always deliver on great insight and interviews about the industry. Always worth a listen.

A consistent voice for energy transition, policy shenanigans and fiduciary foibles. Keep it up Giles & team.
Anthony Coles via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 02/13/21
With a lens of policy and finance this gives a good overview over energy transition. The focus on Australia means this is a sign of things to come for many other countries, especially as Australia has gone all in on residential solar.

I have only just found you guys and have been listening to the back catalogue- I find myself writing notes of more things to listen to and also to read. Only one small point to bring up - you interrupt your guests mid-sentence way too much, and even each other!! But I still love the podcast!...Read full review »

One of the best reviews of energy markets around in what is an incredibly interesting and complex period for our transition.
@MB2030 via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 01/01/21
Just need to work on the balance of volume. Today’s episode sounded like David was yelling compared to the guest, but still a great listen.
davowa via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 12/18/20
Great up to date info about the state of renewable energy in Australia. You should get Andrew blakers on to talk about pumped hydro.
Sundaysnooze via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 07/29/20
I found this podcast as an energy engineering student who wanted to become a bit more literate in the economic space as well as keep up with current developments. It is well balanced, insightful and all over this dynamic and contested topic. The quality of the discussion is reflected in the...Read full review »

Please, please will you guys put a list of acronyms in the show notes—I don’t want to have to go to the website. For example, today you started off talking about ISP. Mostly I can work out what your acronyms stand for but it’s supremely frustrating when I can’t. A list of them in the show notes...Read full review »
SorbyAdams via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 06/20/20
Thanks for the in-depth interviews and analyses Giles and David. There is so much going on behind the scenes that we rarely hear about in the renewables sector. This is my go-to podcast to keep up to date on what’s happening in this space. Keep up the great work!
Bruce Thonson via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 06/18/20
I really like the depth provided by Giles and David. Keep up the good work.
timbrown13 via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 06/11/20
I really wanted to give this podcast 5 stars because I love the website, and the content of the podcast is excellent (even if very Oz centric!), but good grief the audio quality guys! Come on, invest a little in getting that right!
Tom Raftery via Apple Podcasts · Spain · 05/21/20
Wonderfully informative and often entertaining commentary on Australia’s transition to renewable energy. Giles and David’s guests are some of the very important and pivotal authorities in the renewable energy industry in Australia, spanning experts in regulatory bodies to utility generator CEO’s...Read full review »
Running_Mike_84 via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 05/13/20
Brilliant podcast that provides an excellent overview of the opportunities available to Australia and the world when we realise that a low carbon future is the only one possible. Great listening. This should be broadcast through the PA system in Parliament House in Canberra.
earthcraft Zac via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 05/12/20
An indispensable resource for anyone working in the Australian electricity industry.
Haggy86 via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 04/30/20
An amazing source of information for what is happening in the world of renewable energy!
Past glory via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 04/29/20
This podcast is a great resource for understanding the Australian electricity scene. David and Giles have different expertise and perspectives which adds to the value of the information. Their guests are interesting and have substantial positions in the industry. Strongly recommended.
PremCacher via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 04/02/20
Very informative and well presented. Really enjoyed The presenter, and the interview. with Lily. Could be slicker. Lessons could be made by styling it like the Freakonomics podcast. Transitions were a bit clunky, and speakers used a lot of “ahs”.
Steve Raynes via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 02/24/20
Great for an overview of Australian renewables and coverage of topical issues
Egalata via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 02/21/20
Vital listening! Cut thru the politics and learn about the real low emissions facts.
Steve DDuffy via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 02/19/20
I love the information analysis of the Australian renewable energy situation and its development ( or lack of it!) It is great to have these insights to understand what is going on in our country which are not available in the public media. The contributions of the guests adding specialist and...Read full review »

I’ve been listening to Giles and David for the last two years while I’ve been studied at uni thinking about which area of the renewable energy sector I would like to work in when I’m finished. The problem is they have had so many interesting guests in so many areas I now feel overwhelmed with...Read full review »

Great source of current renewable news for Australians
andyboNosound via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 12/06/19
This is essential listening for anyone interested in the renewables revolution sweeping across Australia.

This podcast is fantastic if you care about the Nuts and Bolts of Australian energy policy and politics. Massive thanks to Giles, David and RenewEconomy
BasketballBroBenji via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 08/22/19
This is a must listen podcast if you want to learn about the renewable energy transition we are undergoing in this country and why it will benefit us all in both environmental and economic terms. I look forward to it every week as one of the best. Good work Giles and David
Snaffz via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 06/07/19
...if you have any interest at all in the energy market/debate. Thank you Giles, David and your sponsors. One small request though is to ask if you can turn up your basic recording volume (and better enhance interviewees esp. phone calls) as I listen whilst outside and spend a lot of time...Read full review »

Mr
My star rating is based on little actual listening - so far, but I assure readers and pod cast listeners that RenewEconomy is the 'go to' place for news of how tomorrow's energy economy is shaping up - now - including the astounding politics surrounding energy issues.

Couldn’t recommend it more highly
b-fay via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 07/18/18
An outstanding weekly wrap on all things energy, local and abroad saving me plenty of time from reading the usual sources. Really appreciate the breadth of guests and knowledge. My only critique is the sound quality - David often sounds like he’s in a bathroom/kitchen, or empty room (loud,...Read full review »

This is a great podcast for staying up to date with what’s going on in Utilities both in Australia and overseas. It would be nice if it could have an education component to it as well to explain some of the concepts that come up, such as what is a capacity market, how do reverse auctions work and...Read full review »

Some of the best new journalism in Australia at the moment, these guys do the hard yards of actually looking into energy policy and economics and dispelling the myths pedalled by special interests, myths that get repeated even by the ABC!
