The Switch Podcast

Not another Podcast

Old episodes

Welcome to join The Switch – a platform for everybody involved in and interested in the switch towards a green industry.

The Switch is a podcast about sustainability, but we intend to make it more than a podcast. We want to create a fast-paced, broad, and entertaining show with a wide range of guests, clever conversation, and a few laughs. We want to educate, entertain, and strengthen green partnerships. Our aim is to make The Switch the number one hub for knowledge exchange on the topic of renewables and green transition.

Reasons to Switch

The background to this podcast is that there is so much knowledge out there. So many brilliant innovators and companies inventing and developing energy solutions that can help us decarbonize and reduce our impacts on this planet.

We also know that time is not unlimited. It’s not too late, but we must all take initiative and act proactively to find ways to build a sustainable society.

That’s why we’re starting The Switch: to gather great minds from all parts of the industry to get an overall picture of what must and can be done. Through insightful and engaging conversations, we want to create a forum for everybody working in the green industry as well as reaching an interested public. The goal is to put renewable energy on top of the political agenda and raise public interest in sustainability.

The show is produced by Baseload Capital and DNB. It will be published twice a month, with an estimated length of 30 minutes per episode.

A word from our sponsors:

Baseload Capital

Baseload Capital is a specialized investment entity that funds the deployment of heat power worldwide.Our portfolio of companies in Iceland, Japan, Taiwan and the U.S. work with local communities and power companies to permit, build and commission heat power plants.Heat power is an affordable form of renewable energy that can be harnessed from either geothermal resources or waste heat.

By applying innovative financing structures to help our local operators build and run the heat power plants, Baseload Capital can help nations quickly transition away from fossil fuels and toward energy independence. The result will lead to more resilient societies and a planet in balance.

DNB

DNB is Norway’s largest financial services group and one of the largest in the Nordic region in terms of market capitalization. For nearly two hundred years, we have acquired and shared knowledge, developed global networks and adapted to modern everyday life. To us, it is paramount to combine profitability with social and environmental responsibility.

The DNB Group offers a full range of financial services, including loans, savings, advisory services, insurance and pension products for retail and corporate customers.

Typical topics

The podcast will feature a broad spectrum of guests, such as entrepreneurs, environmentalists, investors, and journalists.

Within the field of leadership, we will discuss taking risks financially and strategically, green partnering and future global leading.

Obviously, we will debate energy and climate: halting climate change, restructuring the economic thinking that governs the world, the question of supporting economic growth versus protecting the environment, and the narrative of zero net carbon.

Other guests will focus on debate and activism: how we can give greater representation to poorer people in climate conversations, get more people interested in the future of energy and tackling climate change, and how to bridge the gap between the right and the left on the topic of climate change.

And of course, we want to reach the next generation and give them a message. How can we get through to them and inspire them, and what should they do differently, compared to our generation of leaders?

We dream of a planet in balance. The Switch will explore how to get there.
