The Paris Accord, Carbon Tax Prospects and Grid Reliability, with Barry Worthington, Executive Director, U.S. Energy Association (Ep.17)

Jun 1, 2017

On this episode of the podcast we sit down with Barry K. Worthington, Executive Director of the United States Energy Association, for a big-picture discussion about U.S. withdrawal from the Paris Climate Accord, the prospects for a carbon tax, and grid reliability. We close with Barry's prediction about what the U.S. grid will look like ten years from now.

The interview was recorded the morning of June 1, 2017, just a few hours before President Trump held a news conference in the White House Rose Garden to announce his intentions with regards to U.S. withdrawal from the Paris Climate Accord.
