Solar, Microgrids, and Trust: The Human Side of Sustainability with Ted Flanigan
In this episode of Future of Finance, Georges talks with Ted Flanigan, president of EcoMotion and longtime leader in the energy and sustainability movement. Ted shares his journey from anti-nuclear activism to strategic planning at the New York Power Authority, his pioneering role at the Rocky Mountain Institute, and the founding of EcoMotion. The conversation explores how cities, schools, and companies are adopting cost-effective clean energy solutions—from solar installations and microgrids to EV charging and resilience planning. Ted highlights the importance of trust, honest financial analysis, and behavioral engagement in driving adoption. He also discusses the promise of innovations like vehicle-to-grid integration and space-based solar. Along the way, Ted reflects on his parallel journey as a podcaster with Flanigan’s Eco Logic, where he and his daughter Sierra share stories to inspire a more sustainable future.
