A self-professed energy newbie, each episode will see Andy tackle a new piece of the energy puzzle in an effort to better understand why the sector is changing and how he (and you) can play a part. \u201cI\u2019ve always had an interest in sustainable design for homes, but up until now I haven\u2019t really spent much time looking into the different smart and clean energy solutions available today,\u201d Andy said. \u201cI\u2019m excited to be hosting my first podcast and sharing what I\u2019ve learnt about energy including how I can reduce my carbon footprint, and how I can save some coin in the process.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

From EVs, to online gaming, the Jetsons, solar and home batteries, the six-part series tackles some big (and small) energy related questions, all the while providing handy energy hacks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So Watt? brings together experts, innovators and change-makers to help ordinary Aussies understand the tremendous transformation underway in how energy is produced and consumed and how ordinary households and businesses will all play a role.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
