'This car can...' Check out our new campaign
In October 2024, Chris Nelder, host of the Energy Transitions Show, visited the world’s first all-electric farm while traveling across New Zealand. He spoke with the farm’s co-owner and co-founder, Mike Casey, about the farm and the work of Rewiring Aotearoa to electrify millions of fossil fuel machines.
"Mike travels extensively across Australia, New Zealand, and major cities across the globe as an evangelist for electrification, encouraging communities to electrify and go solar. His farm serves as a real-world demonstration of these principles in action."
Because Mike’s work is so inspirational and universal, Nelder made this episode free for all listeners to enjoy in full.
As Mike Casey said" This is just unreal. The biggest energy nerd podcast out there was interested in our Electric Cherries ⚡️🍒 and the work we are doing at Rewiring Aotearoa. Thank you Chris for putting NZ electrons on the international transition map!"
New South Wales gets the memo about the importance of finance and announces scheme offering zero interest loans to households to upgrade to electric stuff; plug-in solar gets the tick of approval to go on sale in the UK soon and the New York Times says it could 'change America'; EVolocity takes electrification to the streets to gets the kids inspired (and eventually employed); a tour of the amazing recycling business Redwood Materials; Think Solar and BYD give it away now; and a skit that cuts close to the bone for many solar dads.

Multiple trading relationships (MTR) and peer-to-peer trading would enable this potential by increasing competition, customer choice, and innovation in the electricity market, unlocking greater consumer benefits from customer solar and batteries.
