Episode notes

The chapter features a conversation between Bob Safian and GE Vernova's CEO, Scott Strzajczyk, discussing the company's launch and decision to base headquarters in Cambridge. They emphasize the importance of young talent, urgent climate action, technology in the energy sector, AI in the future energy grid, small modular reactors, offshore wind power, and direct air carbon capture technology.

Can nuclear energy, solar and wind farms, and carbon capture scale fast enough to save the planet? GE Vernova CEO Scott Strazik joins Rapid Response host Bob Safian on stage at the Climatech conference in Boston to detail how green energy is evolving in 2024. GE Vernova is a new company spun out from General Electric, and helps power around a quarter of the world’s electricity. Strazik explains how today’s electrical grid limits renewable energy’s potential, and why it desperately needs a “new brain.”
