  Aug 18, 202651 minS2

  The Middle East’s energy map could be changing fast. Could Syria and Lebanon play a bigger role in what comes next?

  Are These the Most Important 3 Months in Electric Car History?

  Aug 11, 202618 minS2

  The next three months could be some of the most important in the history of the electric car. In this episode of the Wolfe Power Club Podcast, Alex Wolfe looks at the latest EV market figures and asks whether electric car sales are really ready to move to the next level. With cars like the new BMW iX3 offering close to 500 miles of range, has the industry finally solved one of the biggest arguments against EVs? Alex also looks at charging infrastructure, the UK’s EV mandate, energy prices, the cost of motoring and the reasons consumers are still choosing petrol and diesel cars. With the government targeting 52% electric new-car sales by 2028, the next few months could tell us a lot about whether that target is realistic.

  Is It Over for GB Energy? The Questions Labour Can't Ignore

  Aug 4, 202611 minS2

  GB Energy was meant to be one of Labour's flagship energy policies. Two years on, we're asking a simple question: is it already over? In this episode, Alex Wolfe asks what has happened to Great British Energy. With just a fraction of the promised jobs created in Aberdeen, little public activity from the organisation and no recent mention in the Government's biggest energy announcements, has the project quietly lost momentum? Alex looks at what's changed since GB Energy launched, why Juergen Maier's departure matters, and whether the Government's priorities have shifted towards energy bills, North Sea oil and gas, defence spending and wider energy security.
