I've long been meaning to interview one of the smartest guys I know in the world of energy and utilities, and last week found the perfect opportunity to finally do it - an announcement by Mercedes that they will commit to having an all electric fleet by 2030 - and an electric alternative forever car in their fleet by at least 2025. Michael D. Bedley is the Managing Partner of APEX Power Services; it's a boutique consulting focusing on all things energy and electric. He and I first met when I keynoted a Siemens Energy conference a few years ago in Houston. After that, we kept in touch and have had numerous discussions, being kindred spirits in the speed of events in this sector. I also receive his daily e-mail - such as this one whcih just came in - whcih is a fantastic resource for all kinds of news on energy:   I decided to reach out and bring him into the virtual broadcast studio for a discussion. I did do a little 'pre-show' which framed the context for the interview - including the arrival of my new Tesla next week. Here's that intro bit in short form: Michael is definitely THE smartest guy I know in the world of energy, renewables, electric vehicles, and more. Here are his contact details: (o) 954 915 8902 * (c) 954 494 2739 4611 S. University Drive, #170 Davie, FL 33328 mbedley@apexpower.com www.apexpower.com
