As the nuclear renaissance comes into focus in the U.S., the sector’s true bottleneck might not be advanced reactors, but its lack of heavy-lifting project developers. These are the companies who secure and permit sites, navigate the interconnection queue, line up offtakers, and assemble a team of both savvy EPCs and experienced plant operators.
In this episode of Catalyst, Shayle Kann sits down with David Faherty, co-founder of Elementl Power, to walk through the soup-to-nuts playbook for delivering new nuclear projects in the United States. David explains everything from how his team approaches greenfield site screening, why early-stage development capital remains the hardest money to raise, and how portfolio-level structuring could unlock nuclear's elusive learning curve.
Shayle and David also discuss:
- What makes a viable nuclear site, from seismic and geotechnical screenings to community engagement and interconnection dynamics
- Why 20- to 25-year investment-grade offtakes from hyperscalers are critical for debt financing
- Why Elementl opts for GE Hitachi’s BWRX-300 SMR over Gen IV startup reactor concepts
- Lessons learned from Vogtle — from the design phase and regulatory alignment to workforce retention
- How standardizing the nuclear island can help developers cut costs
Note: EIP is an investor in Elementl, where Shayle sits on the board.

Shownotes
This fall, uranium prices set a record high — $96.50 per pound. But even though the radioactive metal is critical to the nuclear power buildout, rising prices haven’t triggered panic among uranium buyers.
So how are buyers continuing to rely on the supply chain to keep delivering?
In this episode, Shayle speaks with Mike Alkin, founder and chief investment officer at Sachem Cove Partners, to unpack the full nuclear fuel cycle: from mining and yellowcake to conversion, enrichment, and fabrication. Mike explains why uranium mining, specifically, is the ultimate bottleneck in the supply chain. He also makes the case that murky contracting masks the market reality, and breaks down what could happen when America’s 2028 ban on Russian enriched uranium goes into full effect.
Shayle and Mike also discuss:
- Uranium’s global supply/demand mismatch
- Why buyers have been replacing fuel at just above 50% of its burn rate
- Why production costs at the world's lowest-cost producer, Kazatomprom, have skyrocketed and triggered global production curtailments.

The AI buildout is the most capital-intensive project in history. The hunger for power has pushed companies to unconventional options, sparking demand for jet engines, mobile trailer-mounted generators, and hybrid microgrids.
And now batteries are having a moment. The urgency to connect to the grid and manage volatile AI workloads is making storage a must-have piece of the energy stack for data centers.
The demand is being felt by companies like battery integrator FlexGen, which has seen its order book suddenly filled with data center customers.
In this Frontier Forum, Stephen Lacey talks with FlexGen CEO Pegler and COO Hugh Scott about how the demand is showing up — and how data centers are reshaping the industry.
“I had thought coming from the renewable energy space, we were an impatient crew. The data center community makes us look like the most patient people around,” says Kelcy Pegler, the CEO of FlexGen.
They walk through how developers are designing and integrating batteries, how software is controlling them, and where the market is headed.

It’s no secret that hyperscalers’ behind-the-meter gas bonanza could generate enormous CO2 emissions. But the BTM boom could become responsible for another, less-publicized emissions issue: upstream and onsite methane leaks that could derail decarbonization efforts.
In this episode, Shayle Kann speaks with Olya Irzak, founder and CEO of Frost Methane Labs. Olya unpacks the full lifecycle of methane emissions in gas-powered data centers, and considers why the actual warming impact of behind-the-meter gas may be double current estimates. Olya says practical, relatively low-cost strategies could cut those emissions in half. Shayle and Olya also discuss:
- The big-picture data: Why tens of gigawatts of new behind-the-meter gas capacity could generate 380 megatons of CO2 and methane emissions over the next 18 months.
- How methane can leak across the value chain, from wellheads and gathering pipelines to facility leaks and engine slippage
- How methane's extreme short-term warming potency means off-grid gas emissions could dwarf coal’s impacts over the next 20 years
- Why running gas generators at partial loads increases leaks
- Why low-leak gas procurement, leak detection and repair, and catalyst additions add less than 1% to total data center build costs without causing operational delays

Shownotes
As data center-driven load growth continues to rise, hyperscalers are turning to natural gas – both in front of and behind the meter — to secure power. But whether the natural gas pipeline system has the bandwidth to support this surging demand remains far from certain.
In this episode, Shayle sits down with Eric McGuire, director of natural gas and LNG trading analytics at Wood Mackenzie, to unpack whether gas is in the midst of a capacity crunch of its own. Shayle and Eric consider how data center demand has collided with massive LNG exports in the United States, why regional pricing spreads are informing data center siting, and how winter weather creates extreme daily price volatility. They also discuss:
- How connecting large loads directly into interstate gas pipeline headers compares to filing an electric grid interconnection request
- Why data centers and LNG export contracts compete for baseload gas
- How placing data centers in the Permian Basin and Marcellus Shale helps developers bypass long-haul pipeline constraints

Shownotes
Of all the concerns surrounding the AI boom, data center water usage tops the list. Opponents claim that massive hyperscaler facilities threaten local drinking supplies and drain aquifers. Proponents say data centers use a negligible amount of water, at least compared to agriculture or conventional power generation sources.
So who actually has it right?
In this episode, Shayle sits down with Tim Shedd, founder of Ebullient Insights and an expert in data center thermal management. They unpack the history and evolution of data center cooling and consider how high-density chip racks have developers ditching air cooling in favor of single-phase direct-to-chip liquid cooling. The two also discuss:
- Why modern GPU racks (drawing 220 kW to 500 kW+) have rendered traditional air cooling obsolete
- The distinctions between single-phase direct-to-chip, two-phase cooling, and immersion cooling methods
- How collecting heat at higher temperatures inside a server allows data centers to reject heat outside with far less energy and water inputs
- How developers can better communicate with the public about data centers’ water usage and foster local trust amidst rapid buildouts.

It’s been a wild few years for grid-scale batteries in Texas. At the start of the decade, the Lone Star State was home to roughly 200 megawatts of battery capacity. Today, that number has skyrocketed to seventeen gigawatts…with at least five more gigawatts expected to come online by the end of 2026.
But this rapid buildout quickly led to market saturation. In the past year alone, revenues plummeted by more than 80%, far below the threshold needed for fleet operators to stay in the black.
The future of the battery market in Texas remains murky. Will the depression continue? Or will the imminent, enormous surge of data center load growth reset the state of play and bring volatility back into the mix?
In this episode, Shayle sits down with Brandt Vermillion, U.S. market lead at Modo Energy, to unpack the mechanics of the Texas battery storage market, and consider when the tide could turn back in developers’ favor. They cover topics like:
- The factors behind the recent cratering of the market
- How longer battery durations are able to capture secondary price spikes
- The degree to which weather patterns have contributed to battery demand
- Reconciling currently suppressed revenues with the hundreds of incoming gigawatts of proposed data center demand
- Whether on-site generation for hyperscaler data centers will blunt peak demand spikes and delay the return of grid volatility

This is a partner episode, brought to you by Bloom Energy.
Long interconnection queues, fragile supply chains, and a lack of grid capacity are pushing a wide range of C&I customers to invest in distributed, on-site power.
But as data centers and other industrial facilities build more power behind the meter, new challenges have emerged. Air quality, noise, and water use are top concerns for local communities, making cleaner solutions like fuel cells much more attractive.
This shift within the data center industry is starting to shape energy decisions in the broader C&I sector across retail, healthcare, higher education, and manufacturing.
In this Frontier Forum, Stephen Lacey talks with Aman Joshi, chief commercial officer at Bloom Energy, about how the scramble for electricity is changing how large energy users plan their power.
In this new landscape for large loads, Aman explains why more customers are planning to permanently stay disconnected from the grid; how the familiar cost-per-megawatt-hour calculation can fall short; and why speed, reliability, and community acceptance are central to power decisions.

Dual-use technologies and the rise of defense tech are having a moment. But how does the defense sector approach innovations in energy that may be necessary to optimize its fleets?
To help answer that question, Shayle turns to the maritime sector to explore how advanced batteries, nuclear propulsion, and autonomous capabilities are shaping the future of defense.
Unlike conventional EVs, maritime vehicles and drones must compete with the challenges presented by the sea in order to complete surveillance and reconnaissance-related missions, as well as direct attacks. Saltwater corrodes hardware, and vehicles at great depths must withstand enormous pressure; to say nothing of the fact that moving through water requires nearly 1,000 times more energy than through air.
To learn how the sector navigates these obstacles, Shayle sits down with Andrew Nuss, the head of growth and strategy in the maritime division at the defense technology company Anduril. They unpack topics including:
- The complicated physics influencing maritime drone design and energy usage
- How lithium-ion cells fare in deep-sea deployment
- Why extreme reliability and long-range capabilities drive the military’s energy requirements compared to commercial shipping
- How surface or subsea recharging depots could reshape vehicle design
- Why both commercial and defense sectors are revisiting nuclear propulsion as a viable option for high-speed, zero-emission surface vessels

Diesel generators remain ubiquitous because they offer an unusually powerful combination of low cost, high energy density, long-duration storage, and reliable off-grid power. But their pollution, noise, maintenance requirements, permitting challenges, and growing footprint are becoming increasingly problematic as data centers drive demand for backup generation.
In this episode of Catalyst, Shayle Kann talks with Richard Wang, co-founder and CEO of Voya Energy, about the company's effort to replace diesel generators with generators powered by aluminum.
Richard explains why diesel has been so difficult to displace, why natural gas and batteries fall short for some backup applications, and how Voya's electrochemical generator uses aluminum pellets and air to produce electricity. Unlike combustion-based generators, the system is designed to operate without air emissions, while offering high energy density, quiet operation, rapid startup, and long-duration capabilities.
The conversation also explores aluminum's potential as a globally transportable energy carrier and why low-grade scrap aluminum could provide Voya's initial fuel supply.
Richard and Shayle discuss:
The global diesel generator market and why diesel remains dominant
Why natural gas generators and batteries haven't displaced diesel
Aluminum as a high-energy-density fuel
How Voya Energy's electrochemical aluminum generator works
Voya vs. diesel on cost, footprint, power quality, and runtime
Using Voya generators as grid assets and battery alternatives
- Why metal fuels are becoming viable now
- Using low-grade scrap aluminum as fuel and the long-term vision for recyclable aluminum energy storage

Everyone loves to talk about the “broken grid.” But if you look inside a utility’s planning and operations functions, a different picture emerges: infrastructure that is remarkably reliable, built and run by engineers solving impossibly complex problems with often outdated tools.
In this episode, Shayle Kann sits down with Josh Wong, CEO and founder of ThinkLabs AI, a company building physics-informed AI for utility planning and operations. They break down how utility studies get built today, the data cleanup headaches, the silos between teams, and the “worst case” mentality that drives an overbuild of infrastructure.
Shayle and Josh discuss:
Why utility planning is split into silos across transmission, distribution, and DER planning.
The gap between studies that identify grid problems and the work of actually solving them.
What “physics-informed AI” actually means.
The shift from AI that identifies problems to AI that actually solves them.
The disconnect between utility planning and real-time operations.
Should data center microgrids be treated as micro utilities?

Shownotes
A decade ago, DERs were hot. The hype was that things like batteries, smart devices, and other distributed energy technologies would offset the need for expanding traditional grid infrastructure.
But DERs never took off, at least not at the scale that many hoped for. They had high price tags and short track records compared to the existing substations, transmission lines, and generation options that utilities were familiar with. In short, the market didn’t need them yet.
Fast forward 10 years, and things have changed. Load growth is increasing while major grid bottlenecks — like in transmission, interconnection, and supply chains — may be opening up a new opportunity.
So is the time finally right for DERs? In this episode, Shayle talks to his colleague Andy Lubershane, partner and head of research at Energy Impact Partners. Last week, Andy published a blog post making the case that DERs were a good idea that was just too early, but the market is ready now. Original episode date: 9/18/2025.
Shayle and Andy cover topics like:- What held DERs back a decade ago
- Why now is different, including falling system costs and growing grid bottlenecks
- The difference between demand response and virtual power plants
- The potential hurdles to scale, like supply chain bottlenecks, foreign entity of concern regulations, and fire codes

This week, we’re presenting an episode of Critical Capital, a new podcast from Crux and Latitude Studios.
Energy policy has become increasingly polarized just as the U.S. faces record electricity demand, a rapidly expanding AI economy, and growing competition from China.
In this episode, Alfred Johnson speaks with North Carolina Sen. Thom Tillis about why the country's biggest energy challenge is the inability to build durable, bipartisan policy that survives changes in political leadership.
Drawing on more than a decade in the Senate, Tillis argues for an "all-of-the-above" energy strategy that embraces renewables, natural gas, nuclear, and other generation sources rather than treating them as competing ideologies. He discusses the economic consequences of abruptly cancelling energy projects, the need for stable investment signals, and why rising electricity demand requires policymakers to focus on practical solutions instead of partisan rhetoric. Tillis also discusses domestic manufacturing, critical minerals, AI governance, and the importance of strengthening America's energy supply chains while remaining globally competitive.

Shownotes
The race to build AI infrastructure is often framed around the availability of power, chips, and capital. But another critical constraint is becoming impossible to ignore: skilled labor. In this episode, Shayle sits down with Raymond Hawkins, chief customer officer at Compass Datacenters, about why a shortage of qualified electricians has emerged as one of the biggest bottlenecks to data center construction, and how the industry is responding.
Hawkins explains that labor shortages aren't preventing new data centers from being built, but they are driving up costs, extending project timelines, and forcing developers to compete aggressively for experienced electricians. As AI demand accelerates, companies are increasingly moving workers across the country, housing them near construction sites, and relying on a traveling workforce much like the healthcare industry relies on travel nurses. At the same time, demand is surging for highly specialized professionals capable of installing the sophisticated electrical systems that modern AI data centers require.
Hawkins also explores how modular construction and prefabrication are reshaping the way data centers are built, and how, as data centers expand into new markets, developers must become more transparent about their projects to earn a community's trust.
Shayle and Raymond discuss:
- Why electricians have become one of the biggest constraints on AI data center growth- How workforce shortages are changing hiring, training, and construction practices
- Compass Datacenters' partnership with community colleges to develop skilled labor
- The role of modular construction and prefabrication in reducing labor demands
- Strategies for earning community support through transparency, workforce investment, and responsible infrastructure development

Shownotes
Commercial and industrial (C&I) battery storage has long been the missing middle of the energy storage market. It’s been too complex and expensive to scale like residential systems, but too small to compete with utility-scale projects.
That may finally be changing.
In this episode, Shayle sits down with Tim Hade, senior vice president at Voltus and founder of Brightfield Infrastructure, to discuss why C&I storage has historically struggled, why the economics are shifting dramatically, and why the next wave of distributed energy could be driven by commercial customers rather than utilities.
They explore the four revenue streams that are making batteries more valuable, from demand charge management to emerging capacity markets, and examine how declining hardware costs, stable federal tax incentives, and AI-powered automation are reshaping project economics. Tim also explains how aggregating thousands of commercial batteries into virtual power plants could help hyperscalers bring new data centers online faster while easing pressure on an increasingly constrained electric grid.
Shayle and Tim discuss:
- Why commercial battery storage lagged behind residential and utility-scale markets- The four revenue streams driving today's C&I storage economics
- How rising electricity prices and capacity shortages are changing customer demand
- Why battery hardware costs have fallen by roughly one-third in 18 months
- How AI could reduce project transaction costs by as much as 90%
- The opportunity — and challenge — of aggregating thousands of distributed batteries into virtual power plants
- Why data center growth and "bring your own capacity" programs could accelerate C&I storage adoption
- Tim's outlook for the fastest-growing segment of the battery storage market

Most electric vehicles spend nearly all of their lives parked, doing nothing. But under the hood of those idle cars, a massive store of energy sits untapped. The Kia EV9, for instance, holds a 100-kilowatt-hour battery—which is equivalent to about seven home backup batteries—just waiting to be utilized.
Yet despite this enormous potential, Vehicle-to-Grid (V2G) technology has remained mostly limited to small-scale pilot programs for decades. But with advanced tech hitting the market, that could soon change.
In this episode, Shayle sits down with Steve Letendre, senior advisor at the Vehicle-Grid Integration Council and editor of V2G News, to explore why the V2G revolution is finally moving from concept to reality. They break down the technical battle between AC and DC architectures, tackle the looming questions around battery degradation and warranties, and debate the business models that will finally convince everyday drivers to plug their cars back into the grid.
Shayle and Steve discuss topics like:
- The unused energy capacity hidden in parked EVs
- The technical debate, cost trade-offs, and hardware differences between off-board power conversion (DC architecture) and on-board power conversion (AC architecture).
- Current compatible EV options, including the Nissan Leaf, Tesla Cybertruck, Ford F-150 Lightning, and Kia EV9
- The high upfront cost of V2G systems
- Consumers' fears regarding whether discharging power to the grid will ruin their EV batteries or void manufacturer warranties.
- Streamlining the V2G enrollment process via VPP programs or at point-of-sale
- How financing can unlock mass V2G adoption

Shownotes
Over the course of the past decade, quantum computing (or the concept thereof) has ridden hype cycles, just like AI or the internet writ large.
In the past year, however, as governments across the globe have committed north of $50 billion to the sector, and billions more have poured into quantum startups, the technology is finding itself in the midst of a particularly dramatic hype wave.
Yet even as the money pours in, quantum remains a nascent technology that hasn’t seen any use in the real world. Among other applications, it offers enormous potential to revolutionize material discovery and molecular design, and to turbo charge clean energy tech. But how close we are to actually moving from isolated chips in a lab to bringing these real-world commercial applications to life remains a bit of a mystery.
In this episode, Shayle speaks to Bob Sorensen, chief analyst for quantum computing at Hyperion Research. They dig past the VC hype to map out the current state of quantum hardware, look at the timeline for fault-tolerant computing, and evaluate where the true performance gains lie.
Shayle and Bob discuss:
- Why recent claims of "quantum advantage" are often based on artificial constructs without much real-world relevance
- The difference between physical and logical qubits, and why reducing the "noise" is a defining hurdle for the hardware industry
- How data-driven AI models and science-driven quantum architectures complement each other differently in materials discovery
- Why 85 independent hardware vendors are far too many for the current ecosystem, and how market consolidation might impact investor confidence

For those steeped in the world of AI development, the major differences between tech giants’ chip strategies are easy enough to see: the speed of Google’s TPUs, the affordability of Amazon’s Trainium, and Nvidia’s market dominance. But those same companies’ respective energy strategies often fly under the radar.
As data center buildouts surge across the U.S., the tech industry is hitting a massive wall: a power grid that can’t move fast enough to support them. In this episode, Shayle sits down with Jeremie Eliahou Ontiveros, who leads coverage of infrastructure and power at SemiAnalysis, to lift the curtain on the hyper-competitive world of AI energy procurement.

One of the biggest challenges with technologies that reduce greenhouse gas emissions is that they require mass adoption. Solar radiation management (SRM) has the opposite problem.
By Stardust Solutions’ estimate, dispersing three million tons of reflective particles into the stratosphere could cool the planet by 1.5 degrees Celsius for the relatively small price of $30 billion; that's less than the cost of a single hyperscale data center.
Despite concerns about such an endeavor, the company is building a proprietary particle injection system with the goal of being deployment-ready this decade. While Stardust says they won’t deploy without the explicit authorization of multiple governments, questions nonetheless remain around the safety and ethics of SRM.
In this episode, Shayle sits down with Yanai Yedvab, CEO and co-founder of Stardust, to unpack how the technology works, its potential risks, and when to deploy it.
Shayle and Yanai discuss topics like:
- Why Stardust is eschewing sulfur dioxide in favor of naturally occurring, biodegradable amorphous silica and calcite particles
- How Stardust’s technology incorporates real-time and holistic testing
- Stardust’s commitment to only deploying under strict international regulation
- How the company balances the risk that solar geoengineering will reduce the economic incentive to decarbonize heavy industries with the imperative of an immediate climate solution

Shownotes
Electric transmission development is notoriously difficult, and these days, NIMBYism gets the brunt of the blame. But as data center loads surge and electricity prices climb, there’s a new roadblock – the messy world of multi-state cost allocation.
The Mid-Atlantic Resiliency Link (MARL) — a planned 100-mile, $960 million transmission line stretching across Pennsylvania, West Virginia, Maryland, and Virginia — was approved by PJM in 2022 under standard rules that spread costs across the entire region. But that plan was made before ChatGPT took off and data center forecasts shot upwards.
Fast forward four years, and now state consumer advocates are asking why local ratepayers should foot the bill for an infrastructure project designed to feed data centers in northern Virginia.
In this episode, Shayle sits down with Maeve Allsup, senior reporter at Latitude Media, to unpack her reporting on the project. They dive into how the rise of generative AI has disrupted traditional grid planning and explore why this challenge has proven to be such an impactful rate limiter for the AI boom.
[Correction: In this episode, Shayle and Maeve refer to MARL as the Mid-Atlantic Reliability Line. The correct name is the Mid-Atlantic Resiliency Link. We regret the error.]
Shayle and Maeve discuss topics like:
- How a project approved in 2022 hit a vastly different policy and regulatory landscape by the time it reached state dockets
- Why data center growth breaks the historic assumption that regional transmission costs eventually "even out" between states
- How the Ratepayer Protection Pledge — a voluntary commitment signed by tech hyperscalers at the White House — is being harnessed by state advocates as a cudgel to demand data centers pay for grid upgrades
- Why the United States has gone from building thousands of miles of transmission a decade ago to just hundreds today
- How the intersection of local opposition and confusion over utility tariffs is delaying grid buildouts

While many energy insiders remain focused on the staggering demand coming from AI and data centers, a much larger and far-reaching shift is happening. We are entering what Energy Impact Partners’ head of research Andy Lubershane calls the "electric supercycle" — a series of interlocking technological flywheels that are accelerating the clean energy transition faster than many may realize.
In this episode, Shayle sits down with Andy to map out the interconnected nature of the "electric stack.” They unpack how early investments in solar and EVs are scaling up technologies that are now feeding back into grid infrastructure, and look ahead to the massive electricity demands of the coming robotics and defense industry boom. They also consider the pressing question of the ultimate rate limiters for meeting this demand.
Shayle and Andy discuss topics like:
- The power grid supply crunch
- Why electricity prices have tracked inflation so far, but may surge past it when equipment costs hit retail customer bills.
- The four pillars of the electroindustrial tech stack: Solar PV, lithium-ion batteries, EVs, and wide-bandgap power electronics
- How a "Robo-Butler" load profile compares to other household appliances
- How the defense industry could catalyze climate tech, especially batteries

Shownotes
In 2020, China exported about a million cars a year. Now, it’s tracking somewhere around twelve million — surpassing the historic peaks of giants like Japan and Germany.
Yet this massive global shift feels nearly invisible in the U.S. A 100% tariff on Chinese vehicles, combined with strict rules keeping Chinese hardware and software off American roads, has effectively built a regulatory wall around the domestic market. But in virtually every other corner of the globe, Chinese automakers are dramatically reshaping markets — from Europe and Southeast Asia to Latin America and Canada.
In this episode, Shayle sits down with Michael Dunne, the CEO of Dunne Insights and author of the upcoming book Car Wars. Shayle and Michael map out the chaotic dynamics of the global auto market and consider what’s actually happening inside China’s automotive powerhouse. And they explore the biggest question of all: can America permanently shield legacy automakers, or is it just delaying an inevitable wave?
Shayle and Michael discuss topics including:

While global electricity demand is unquestionably rising, we may nonetheless be underestimating the scale of necessary future generation.
In this episode, Shayle speaks to Nic Fulghum, senior energy and climate data analyst at Ember. Nic is the co-author of Ember’s annual Global Electricity Review. This year’s installment, released in April, demonstrates that renewable sources – and solar in particular – are continuing to grow exponentially, even as those markets mature. In 2025, solar generation grew by a remarkable 30% year-over-year globally; its highest rate in eight years.
At the same time, global fossil generation declined in 2025, driven by drops in coal generation in both China and India. But as solar surges, how quickly grid-connected batteries can step in to absorb peak demand remains to be seen.
In their conversation, Shayle and Nic dive deep into the data behind global electricity generation in 2025 and consider the future of the grid. They explore a range of topics, including:
- Why Ember’s report focuses on generation instead of capacity
- How solar continues to maintain exponential growth rates
- Why fossil generation has dropped in China and India
- How battery storage is being used to shift midday solar peaks to shoulder hours
- What the US’ LNG supply glut means for its power grid trajectory

Amidst the increasing urgency of powering data centers, a new solution has entered the mix: send them out to sea.
In this episode, Shayle speaks to Garth Sheldon-Coulson, co-founder and CEO of Panthalassa. The company is building 85-meter steel "nodes" – taller than Big Ben – that it deploys into the deep ocean. These untethered, self-propelled nodes harness wave energy to power AI clusters, then beam their data back to land via satellite. The technology isn’t without its fair share of logistic complications, but it nonetheless offers a pathway to powering the AI boom that’s largely independent from grid or fuel constraints.
Shayle and Garth cover topics including:
- The physics and mechanics that power Panthalassa’s nodes
- The significance of building an autonomous fleet
- The energy generation waiting to be tapped in the open ocean
- The logistics and unit economics behind scaling Panthalassa’s technology
- Why deep-sea compute is well-suited for long-running workloads like inference and reinforcement learning

- Catalyst: How to build more hydropower
- Latitude Media: Are Thiel-funded floating data centers enough to make wave energy pencil?

For years, the prospect of commercial nuclear fusion felt a long way off. But recent breakthroughs—like Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory’s historic 2022 net energy gain—have marked a new chapter in the quest for fusion. Proving the physics in a lab, however, is a lot different than building a power plant that can compete on the open grid. Massive hurdles remain across physics, financing, and scaling.
In this episode, host Shayle Kann sits down with Carrie von Muench, COO of Pacific Fusion and a former venture capitalist. Carrie brings a unique, investor-minded perspective to this singular challenge.
Shayle and Carrie dive into topics like:
- Net facility gain, and the difference between breaking even at a target level versus breaking even across a facility’s tech stack.
- The distinctions between steady-state and inertial fusion
- Why Pacific Fusion is focused on building modular reactors
- The company’s strategy of utilizing widely accessible commodities like oil, plastic, metal, and water instead of specialized materials that rely on shaky supply chains.
- Unpacking the “ignition cliff;”the point at which a nuclear reactor shifts from relying on outside inputs to producing energy itself
- Why Pacific Fusion emulated pharma's multi-tranche funding strategies to create milestones around capital deployments and de-risk its early execution

While much of the world has been focused on the war in Iran’s impact on the energy sector, another arguably more impactful market has been largely overlooked: fertilizer.
The global fertilizer market is in a precarious spot. Roughly a third of the world's seaborne fertilizer trade goes through the Strait of Hormuz. Even before the war in Iran began, China, the world’s top phosphate producer, halted exports of the crucial compound. As a result, the longer the strait remains closed, the more the threat to our global food supply escalates.
In this episode, Shayle speaks with Josh Linville, vice president of Fertilizer at StoneX, to make sense of the global fertilizer market and its cascading impacts.
Shayle and Josh cover topics including:
- The current state of global fertilizer markets
- The tenuous relationship between natural gas prices and the cost of producing nitrogen-based fertilizers in Europe
- How stalled shipments of fertilizer could impact supply and demand for next year’s planting season
- The impact of Chinese phosphate export restrictions on the global market
- How a prolonged closure of the Strait could impact food supplies around the world
