About this episode
The Big Beautiful Energy Bill just passed and let’s just say it’s not all sunshine and wind turbines. We’re unpacking what’s really going on here: why some renewables are suddenly less loved, how oil and gas somehow walked away smiling, and what Alaska had to do with any of it. There’s tax talk (don’t worry, we make it make sense), political chess moves, and a look at what this means for companies like Chevron and Exxon. Oh, and we didn’t forget about nuclear (especially the bite-sized kind) or how AI is creeping into your energy grid. If you’ve got questions about the future of natural gas, energy markets, or what this bill means for your lights staying on—this one’s for you.Join the conversation shaping the future of energy.Collide is the community where oil & gas professionals connect, share insights, and solve real-world problems together.
