Description

Every Sunday, Laurent and Gerard debrief the main news in the Energy Transition. On the menu:
- Inflation Reduction Act celebrates its first anniversary. Glass 60% full
- Direct Air Capture has the best lobbyists, but is dreadful (see below for additional material)
- CATL leaps ahead - 400km charge in 10mns!!!!
- EV SPACs. Not a great track record.
- From Russia with love: Uranium, caviar and vodka. Which of these 3 is not sanctioned?
