Nuclear power is back in vogue, with shuttered reactors being restarted, existing plants having their operating lives extended and a growing market of new companies racing to build advanced reactor designs. But questions persist about whether the nuclear industry can execute to deliver these generation projects on schedule and on budget in an era of rapidly rising power demand.

In this episode, Dan Testa discusses these trends with Platts reporter Abbie Bennett and Bill Freebairn, Platts associate director of price reporting for nuclear fuels. Also joining the episode are Adam Stein, a nuclear analyst at the Breakthrough Institute, as well as Drew Marsh, CEO of Entergy Corp. and the new chair of the Nuclear Energy Institute.

The gas turbine industry has staged one of the most dramatic comebacks in recent years, fueled by artificial intelligence's insatiable appetite for power.

In this episode, host Eklavya Gupte sits down with Javier Cavada, president and CEO for EMEA at Mitsubishi Power, to examine how AI's demand for 24/7 power has created multi-year waiting times for new gas turbines.

The conversation explores the far-reaching implications of this boom: tech giants are building dedicated gas-fired plants for data centers, developing nations face turbine shortages, and manufacturers struggle to meet unprecedented demand. Cavada reveals that his company is already discussing projects for 2031-2032, highlighting the unprecedented scale of current demand.

India's energy transition story can be vividly seen through the lens of one of its most established utilities, Tata Power, which has shifted from a long-standing reliance on coal to become an integrated renewable energy company aiming for a 70% clean power capacity mix by 2030.

In this episode, S&P Global Commodity Insights editor Ruchira Singh interviews Tata Power CEO and managing director Praveer Sinha on India's ambitious plan to install 500 GW of non-fossil fuel-based power capacity by the end of the decade.

In a wide-ranging conversation, Sinha discusses critical infrastructure challenges — from land acquisition hurdles to transmission bottlenecks — and explains how Tata Power plans to deliver 24/7 renewable energy through integrated solar, wind, pumped hydro and battery storage solutions.
