Workplace stress is something most of us will experience at some point. But there are some fields where the stakes are that much higher. The decisions made in a pinch by airline pilots, doctors, and others can literally be life or death.

Switching from a well established and sometimes dull routine to immediate focus, clarity and understanding requires years of training and experience - and nowhere is that more true than in nuclear power. The vast majority of the time it's completely safe, but it's fair to say complacency and human decision making under stress has caused its fair share of disasters over the years.

The art of keeping human clarity on point and enabling us to make decisions under stress with the help of technology (rather than it making the situation worse) is called Human-Centered Design. It's a principle which points us in the right direction and assists us when we need to make judgement calls - and is surprisingly uncommon in many industries. Joining us today is Dr. Claire Blackett, Principal Nuclear Research Scientist from the Institute for Energy Technologies and an expert in Human-Centered Design. We'll be discussing what other organizations can learn about alleviating stress and enabling good decision making through positive design principles - and more.

This is Technology Now, a weekly show from Hewlett Packard Enterprise. Every week we look at a story that's been making headlines, take a look at the technology behind it, and explain why it matters to organisations and what we can learn from it.

The eighth largest geothermal power plant in the world, set in a volcanic landscape covered with green moss, visually creates the impression of a harmonious place. The geological bedrock here is not only used to extract heat. It also serves as an underground storage of CO2, which gradually turns into stone. What does the sound say about the nature of drilling into the geological bedrock? Does it hint at the promise of a future in which humans have control over the environment?

When it comes to transitioning to renewables and electrifying transport, Arsjad Rasjid, KADIN’s chairman, says the time of “talk, talk, talk” is over. Government and business need to work together to make power generation cleaner, to attract tens of billions in higher tech industries like electric vehicles as well as in information and communication technology. The wind is certainly at Indonesia’s back. FDI in machinery and metals is double what it was a year ago. At the G20 Indonesia secured US$20b in funding from G7 nations to retire coal fired plants (Indika Energy, Pak Arsjad’s own company will be among the first to benefit). But big economies including the US and the EU are introducing subsidies and quotas requiring big chunks of EV battery production to be based in those markets. Will retiring coal powered electricity just free up dirty coal for export. Indonesia wants to participate in the supply chains that churn out the next generation of EVs and batteries not just consume them. But will red tape hamstring it’s bid to escape the so called middle income trap? It’s a considerable list of agenda items for any organization, for Indonesia Inc there’s little time to waste.

The life of the Pickering nuclear plant will be extended to at least 2026. Co-hosts Steve Paikin and John Michael McGrath dig into the politics of it. Then, they unpack the cost of repealing wage caps for Ontario's public-service workers. And finally, we kick off our programming for Civics Month leading up to the municipal elections on October 24. This week: Why some elected officials are leaving politics, while others don't seem interested in joining at all.

This week we sit down with Hande Sile of Kurita Europe GmbH to talk about proper maintenance of your Geothermal project to ensure that you are getting the most heat and power out of your system while not causing damage to your wellbore and facilities. Longevity of your field is vital in terms of maximizing the heat and power you can extract and revenues that you can generate while also lowering your operating costs.
