Giles Parkinson On Australia's EV Boom, Electric Utes & Solar Revolution! | Fully Charged Podcast

In this episode of The Fully Charged Show Podcast, Robert Llewellyn sits down with Giles Parkinson, founder and editor of RenewEconomy, The Driven, and One Step Off the Grid—Australia's go-to sources for EV and clean energy news.

They dive into Australia's rapid shift to renewables, the household solar boom, and why independent media plays a crucial role in educating the public, policymakers, and politicians. With an explosion of new EV options—including Range-Extending Electric Utes designed for Australia's ute-obsessed drivers—they also unpack Tesla's declining sales and how fresh competition is reshaping the market.

The discussion covers vehicle-to-grid technology, the political and economic forces driving (or stalling) clean energy adoption, and how capitalism is proving that sustainability equals cheaper energy—forcing industries to adapt, regardless of political resistance.

Plus, they tackle big-picture topics like decarbonising mining, nuclear energy, and Fortescue's clean energy ambitions.
