Hello, this is Todd Royal.

I'm your host of Geo Power, Energy, and Real Politics.

And today is the European episode.

Ah, the Europeans.

First, let me frame this by,

they probably have some of the worst leaders in the world,

outside of murderous dictators.

Ursula Vanderlin, the unelected head of the EU commission,

So the show is called geopower, power within geopolitics, energy, because energy affects everything,

in real politics.

Real politics is real politics or real politics or real politics, or real politics of reality.

Before I begin with the Europeans, I want to frame a few things in energy terms.

So remember, you have to have energy. You have to have it. There's really two ways

to look at energy or measurement-wise. First one is an exajule. An ex-ajul is a measure of energy.

Our useful way to think about it is one ex-ajoule is the equivalent to 277, let's just go 278 terawatt hours of electricity.

So if a power plant produces one terawatt continuously, which nothing does, then you get

in the capacity factors and only nuclear even hits in the 90% range.

It would generate about one, so one terawatt of power is about one X of
