Switch Energy Alliance Inspiring an energy-educated future
https://switchon.org We are committed to providing a positive environment to converse and ask questions about energy.

SEA was formed to inspire the public to learn about energy, engage in informed conversations, and make smart decisions about our global energy future. As a 501(c)(3) certified nonprofit, our goal is to create objective, film-based resources that can be used by students, educators, or professionals to learn about the importance of energy in the world today. We present our content through three interlinked programs:

WATCH: Film and Video Library
A completely reimagined video library allows users to explore and share video content about energy-related topics. It includes the complete feature films Switch and Switch On, the Switch Energy Lab video series, Energy Primers and much more, all free for viewing. LEARN: Video-Based Education
Coming soon: We’ll organize the video library to provide a structured journey through the world of energy, which academic, industrial and government stakeholders can tailor to their learning and experience levels, eventually including a video-based university course. ENGAGE: Connecting With Our Users
Engage offers a variety of ways to connect with SEA and get involved directly. If you support the idea of building a smarter energy public, you can join the alliance by volunteering your time or following our social media outreach channels.

Now available for podcast, Dr. Scott Tinker talks with Daniel Kammen, energy scientist from Johns Hopkins, and Robert Bryce, energy author and journalist.

We hear conflicting information about solar and wind energy. They’re the cheapest form of electricity. But they make electricity more expensive. They’re the fastest growing electricity. But they make only a small portion of total energy. Are they the future? Or uncompetitive without subsidy?

Now available for podcast, Dr. Scott Tinker discusses the ideas of Ecomodernism and Degrowth with Ted Nordhaus, co-founder of Breakthrough Institute, and Josh Farley, an economist from the University of Vermont.

Degrowth advocates say we’re overusing Earth’s resources, which will degrade living standards and harm the environment, so we must reduce. Ecomodernists say we’re fine: Technology, agriculture and energy will raise living standards while demanding less of nature.

Now available for podcast, Dr. Scott Tinker spends two episodes exploring the basics of shipping and its emissions with two expert guests Anna Silva, Manager of Cruise Ops at Port Everglades Terminal, and Margaret Kaigh Doyle, Director of Transparensea Fuels.

Part 1: Shipping brings us almost every product because it’s the lowest cost of any transport. This makes it extremely important globally, yet it faces many challenges, especially in the U.S., where the shipbuilding industry has nearly stagnated.

Part 2: After learning the basics of the industry, we look at CO2 emissions and the UN’s goals to reduce them, alternative low-carbon fuels and challenges to adopt those.

Scott W. Tinker, PhD sat down with Triggernometry to challenge some of our most deeply held assumptions about energy. They discussed many energy realities people across the globe face today:
- How the global energy mix has actually shifted over the past 60 years, versus common assumptions.
- The scale of energy poverty worldwide and what closing that gap requires.
- Trade-offs between energy density, reliability, and cost across different energy sources.
- Where nuclear power fits into the future energy mix.
