  1. SAYONARA! Is JAPAN being left behind? And JACK's 'gear' change!

    SAYONARA! Is JAPAN being left behind? And JACK's 'gear' change!

    It's no secret that this is a year of change at the Fully Charged Show, and after 5 years of relative 'sustainability', we're bidding farewell to a few of our biggest stars (in front of, and behind the scenes).   And now, arguably none bigger than, Jack Scarlett.    And we've had some serious on-screen talent, from the immense Imogen Bhogal, to the magnificent Maddie Moate, and not forgetting the incredibly funny, Jonny Smith.   In fact, when Jonny left to launch the Late Brake Show, he left huge shoes to fill. And then we happened on the talented (and tall), Jack Scarlett, who was making a name for himself over on Electroheads.   From the moment, I saw him I was convinced that Jack was a future star, and we were able to persuade him to join the Fully Charged Show for a while, which turned out to be 5 fabulous years.   As you will, I have a huge trove of fave moments with Jack, but rather than divert your attention, I'd recommend you listen to this, his last Everything Electric PODCAST, with our OG, Robert Llewellyn.   In it he reflects on his recent sabbatical in Japan and its absence from the battery electric battleground, as well as giving us a glimpse of the glittering road ahead for his career.   The truth is, I always suspected he was headed for even greater things. We're just grateful that we all got to enjoy his good humour and automotive acumen for quite as long as we did.   Farewell Jack, see you down the road! All the best, Dan, Robert & the team   PS See Robert & the rest of the gang at our biggest events of the year in September!   Everything Electric LONDON - 11th & 12th September at Twickenham Stadium   Everything Electric SYDNEY - 18th, 19th & 20th September at Sydney Showground   Tickets: https://everythingelectric.show   To partner, exhibit or sponsor at our award-winning expos email: commercial@fullycharged.show   Check out our sister channel Everything Electric CARS: https://www.youtube.com/@fullychargedshow   Support our StopBurningStuff campaign: https://www.patreon.com/STOPBurningStuff   Become an Everything Electric Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/fullychargedshow   Become a YouTube member: use JOIN button above   Buy the Fully Charged Guide to Electric Vehicles & Clean Energy : https://buff.ly/2GybGt0   Subscribe for episode alerts and the Everything Electric newsletter: https://fullycharged.show/zap-sign-up/   Visit: https://FullyCharged.Show   Find us on X: https://x.com/Everyth1ngElec   Follow us on Instagram: https://instagram.com/officialeverythingelectric

    USELESS ULEZ - Choked? Has Sadiq Khan's flagship policy saved lives, or harmed livelihoods?

    Air pollution in London has changed dramatically over the past few decades — but how much of that is down to policies like ULEZ, and what's still being missed? This week Helen Czerski is joined by Dr. Gary Fuller, an air pollution scientist at Imperial College London who has spent over 30 years measuring air quality in the capital. They cover what's actually in the air we breathe, how ULEZ and other low-emission schemes have changed it, and the surprisingly large health benefits that are now being measured — plus the pollution sources still flying under the radar.

  7. Why Electrification Could Cut Global Energy Use in Half!

    Why Electrification Could Cut Global Energy Use in Half!

    In this episode of the Everything Electric Podcast, Robert Llewellyn sits down with Professor Jan Rosenow, Professor of Energy and Climate Policy at Oxford University, to reveal why electricity currently only tells 20% of the global energy story. They delve into tackling the "hidden 80%", the mobility and heating sectors still dominated by fossil fuels; and explore why our current system is "astonishingly inefficient," wasting two-thirds of all energy inputs as heat. Jan explains how shifting to electrification at scale could cut total global energy demand in half and tackles the biggest myths and milestones of the transition: The Grid Threat: Why data centers pose a more significant regional challenge to the grid than 100 million electric vehicles. Critical Materials: Is the world really running out of lithium, or are we entering an era of "urban mining" where 95-97% of battery materials can be recycled? The China Factor: A look at the "mind-blowing" scale of solar adoption in China and the declining utilization of their coal plants. Beyond Climate: Why electrification is now a primary lever for energy security and economic resilience in a volatile world. From the efficiency of heat pumps to the emergence of industrial heat batteries , this episode connects the dots on what the next phase of the energy transition really looks like.     00:00 A little error... 03:22 Fragile Fuel Systems and Global Crises 05:53 The Myth of North Sea Energy Security 07:44 The Colossal Scale of Global Oil Consumption 08:44 The 20/80 Rule: Why Electricity Isn't Everything 10:41 Efficiency: Why Electrification Halves Energy Use 12:47 China's Solar Revolution and Coal Reality 15:52 The Mindset of the New Generation of Engineers 18:51 Market Tipping Points: Cheaper, Faster, Lighter 22:26 Data Centers vs. EV Grid Impact 28:04 Raw Materials, Lithium Mining, and Circular Economies 34:02 SMRs, Fusion, and Carbon Capture: The Reality Check 41:41 Energiewende and Global Energy Access 48:14 The Next Big Thing: Industrial Heat Batteries 52:40 Domestic Advice: Batteries vs. Solar   Why not come and join us at our next Everything Electric expo: www.everythingelectric.show    Check out our sister channel: https://www.youtube.com/c/EverythingElectricShow   Support our StopBurningStuff campaign: https://www.patreon.com/STOPBurningStuff Become an Everything Electric Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/fullychargedshow Become a YouTube member: use JOIN button above Buy the Fully Charged Guide to Electric Vehicles & Clean Energy : https://buff.ly/2GybGt0 Subscribe for episode alerts and the Everything Electric newsletter: https://fullycharged.show/zap-sign-up/ Visit: https://FullyCharged.Show Find us on X: https://x.com/Everyth1ngElec Follow us on Instagram: https://instagram.com/officialeverythingelectric To partner, exhibit or sponsor at our award-winning expos email: commercial@fullycharged.show   EE NORTH (Harrogate) - 8th & 9th May 2026  EE WEST (Cheltenham) - 12th & 13th June 2026 EE GREATER LONDON (Twickenham) - 11th & 12th Sept 2026 EE SYDNEY - Sydney Olympic Park - 18th - 20th Sept 2026   Tags: #EnergyTransition #Electrification #CleanEnergy #RenewableEnergy #NetZero #ClimateSolutions #EnergyEfficiency #ElectricVehicles #EVs #HeatPumps #Decarbonization #Sustainability #FutureOfEnergy #CleanTech #GreenTechnology #EnergySecurity #BatteryRecycling #CircularEconomy #Lithium #UrbanMining #ChinaEnergy #GlobalEnergy #ClimateAction #LowCarbon #EverythingElectric #JanRosenow

    2025 Wrapped: EV Myths, Dream Cars & 2026 Predictions!

    Join Robert Llewellyn, Jack Scarlett, and Imogen Bhogal for a special year-end wrap-up as they take a mystery tour through the biggest moments of 2025, from unforgettable shoots, to the clean tech stories that really mattered, and share their bold predictions for what's coming in 2026. They kick things off by debunking the myth that EV sales are collapsing, revealing that global battery-electric vehicle sales are actually up 19% year-on-year. From there, the trio dive into their personal "Magic Money Tree" dream garages, featuring the Polestar 5, Kia EV9, the gloriously childish Ioniq 6 N, and Jack's verdict on the potentially game-changing BMW iX3.  There are also behind-the-scenes stories from some of the year's most memorable shoots — including the legendary solar safari in Namibia and the huge electric ferry project in Hobart. To wrap up, the team looks ahead to 2026, with predictions on a potential British automotive revival, the long-awaited arrival of truly affordable small EVs and whether Vehicle-to-Grid (V2G) technology is finally ready for the mainstream.

As well as what you can expect from Everything Electric's 1st ever event in the West of England (June 12th & 13th), what it all means for the Western car industry, and whether the Pope gave Ferrari's Luce his blessing. Why not come and join us at our next Everything Electric show: https://everythingelectric.show EE WEST (Cheltenham) - 12th & 13th June 2026 EE GREATER LONDON (Twickenham) - 11th & 12th Sept 2026 EE SYDNEY - Sydney Olympic Park - 18th - 20th Sept 2026 To partner, exhibit or sponsor at our award-winning expos email: commercial@fullycharged.show Check out our sister channel Everything Electric CARS: https://www.youtube.com/@fullychargedshow Support our StopBurningStuff campaign: https://www.patreon.com/STOPBurningStuff Become an Everything Electric Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/fullychargedshow Become a YouTube member: use JOIN button above Buy the Fully Charged Guide to Electric Vehicles & Clean Energy : https://buff.ly/2GybGt0 Subscribe for episode alerts and the Everything Electric newsletter: https://fullycharged.show/zap-sign-up/ Visit: https://FullyCharged.Show Find us on X: https://x.com/Everyth1ngElec Follow us on Instagram: https://instagram.com/officialeverythingelectric #fullychargedshow #everythingelectricshow #homeenergy #cleanenergy #battery #electriccars #electric-vehicles-uk
