In October 2024, Chris visited the world&#8217;s first all-electric farm while traveling across New Zealand.
In today&#8217;s episode, we speak with the farm&#8217;s owner and founder, Mike Casey. In addition to operating the farm, Mike is CEO of Rewiring Aotearoa, a sister organization to Rewiring America. Rewiring Aotearoa works to advance New Zealand&#8217;s energy transition by encouraging residents to deploy renewables and export excess power to the grid, and to replace their fossil-fueled machines with electric ones. 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&#8217;s work is so inspirational and universal, we&#8217;re making this episode one of our occasional lagniappe shows, available in front of the paywall for all listeners to enjoy in full. We invite you to share this episode widely! And we hope Mike&#8217;s inspiring message of electrification and transition will inspire you to support the show and explore more stories like this in our members-only back catalog.
