The Age of 100%

The Age of 100%

We are now in a new age for clean energy: the age of 100%.

Every week, we get some new declaration from a corporation, a city, a state or a utility that they are going 100%.

But not all targets are created equal. 100% what? 100% clean? 100% renewable? 100% carbon free? Net zero emissions?

To someone who doesn’t follow energy closely, they may all seem like the same thing. But these targets often vary wildly in terms of timing, ambition, and complexity.

So this week: we are surveying the range of targets: which ones matter, what do they add up to, and have they changed what’s possible?

Support for this podcast comes from PG&E. Did you know that 20 percent of EV drivers in the U.S. are in PG&E’s service area in Northern California? PG&E is helping to electrify corporate fleet vehicles. Get in touch with PG&E’s EV specialists to find out how you can take your transportation fleet electric.

We're also brought to you by Uplight, the company you once knew as Tendril and Simple Energy.

The goal is still the same: to offer utility leaders a suite of engagement solutions that deliver customer experiences like Amazon and Netflix. Learn more about how Uplight is building an end-to-end product for utility customer engagement.
