    Ashley Nunes: Director of Federal Policy, Climate, and Energy at Breakthrough Institute

    On April 26, 2023, Ashley Nunes testified before Congress about electric vehicles, saying that just because EVs “can lower emissions doesn’t mean that they necessarily will.” In this episode, Nunes, who in addition to his position with the Breakthrough Institute is also a researcher at Harvard Law School, explains why EV prices are rising, why EV makers haven’t demonstrated a “viable path to profitability,” and why the federal government’s lavish support and mandates for EVs are an “unworkable policy.” (Recorded May 2, 2023.)

    We don’t talk about policy a lot on the podcast because it doesn’t seem to be so investable, but it does seem absolutely fundamental because if a subsidy scheme like the Farm Bill or the Common Agriculture Policy in Europe (CAP) or chemical fossil fuel fertiliser subsidies in many places makes the life of regenerative farmers more difficult, it means it is much more difficult to invest in the space and move it forward.

    HW News | The Story Of LPG Subsidy & How Dr. Manmohan Singh Helped The Poorest| What Does The Data Say | EP 76

    HW News | The Story Of LPG Subsidy & How Dr. Manmohan Singh Helped The Poorest| What Does The Data Say | EP 76

    In 2021-22, LPG (liquefied petroleum gas) consumption constituted about 13 percent of total petroleum product consumption. About 90 percent of LPG was consumed by households, 8 percent by industrial users, and 2 percent by vehicles. Over 60 percent of LPG was imported and over 99 percent of domestic production was from public sector refineries. LPG consumption grew by over 84 percent from about 15.3 MT (million tonnes) in 2011-12 to 28.3 MT in 2021-22. Most of the growth was accounted for by packaged LPG consumed by households and commercial entities. Domestic LPG consumption grew by over 76 percent between 2013-14 and 2021-22 whilst commercial consumption grew by over 108 percent. LPG Access In the 1970s, LPG stoves started replacing kerosene stoves in urban households when new refineries in India started producing bottled LPG. In 1977, there were only 3.2 million LPG connections across India (or 2.5 percent of the households). In 1984, the number of LPG connections tripled to 8.8 million (5 percent of households) and in 1990 the number of LPG connections increased to 19.6 million (11 percent of households). LPG connections grew at over 14 percent in the period between 1977 and 1990 which was above the rate of growth for electricity connections but the starting base for LPG was very small. Subsidy offered by the government that amounted to roughly half the cost of an LPG cylinder was the primary driver behind this growth which benefited middle-class families in cities and towns. According to the fifth National Family Health Survey 2019-2021 (NFHS-5) carried out by the Ministry of Health & Family Welfare, 88.6 percent of urban households use LPG or piped natural gas (PNG) as the primary cooking fuel, while only 42 percent of rural households use LPG or natural gas. Overall, only about 56.2 percent of the population used LPG or PNG as the primary cooking fuel. About 8.9 percent of urban households used wood, straw, shrubs, grass, crop waste, dung, and other materials (solid fuels) as primary cooking fuel whilst 54.6 percent of rural households used solid fuels for cooking. Nationally about 43.3 percent of households in India continue to use solid biomass as the primary fuel for cooking. Pradhan Mantri Ujjwala Yojana (PMUY) was launched by Prime Minister of India Narendra Modi on 1 May 2016 to distribute 50 million LPG connections to women of Below Poverty Line (BPL) families. A budgetary allocation of ₹8000 Crores (US$1.0 billion) was made for the scheme. However, 6 years down the line, PMUY failed to take off. Similar to demonetization, one more scheme launched with great fanfare did not meet its objective and the BJP stopped talking about it. But if you look at the history of the evolution of domestic LPG in our country, you would find that it was the policies of the Indian National Congress that made the real difference. The foundation work was all done by the Congress party and they handed over the baton to Mr. Modi. Prime Minister Modi had to make the change. So, the Ujjwala scheme was conceptualized, and implemented yet failed. The main reason was that the extent of poverty was misunderstood by Modi and his inexperience in governance showed up. Poor people in this country can always manage a one-time large expense. It is the recurring expense that hurts them the most. Congress increased the reach of LPG but was generous in providing subsidies to all sections of the people. The LPG cylinder price was kept artificially low during the UPA-1 and UPA-2 regimes. The poor, lower middle class, and the middle class was kept happy. Modi’s approach was to assist the poor to buy the initial connection and one LPG cylinder. About 8 crores beneficiaries were added till 2021. But many of them did not have the money to buy the next cylinder. The prices sky-rocketed and the subsidy was removed. Mr. Modi tried to hijack and rebrand the Congress schemes. Nothing of what the BJP would have been possible without AADHAR, Direct Benefit Transfer, and bank accounts. All started by the Congress between 2010 to 2013. The BJP failed in yet one more grand scheme.

    Barry Soper: political editor on the newly announced crime prevention package

    Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern has recently announced a package subsidising fog cannons to shops and dairies who may need one to combat crime.

    This announcement was made in the first post-cabinet press conference since the heavily publicised stabbing of a Sandringham shopkeeper.

    Political editor Barry Soper says it would have made more sense for this subsidy package to have been implemented several months ago, when this crime wave was just amping up, as opposed to now.

    What is Millennial Subsidy and Why is it Coming to an End?
    In the recent decade, millions of consumers have become used to enjoying goods and services sold to them at spectacularly low prices or high discounts, usually by start-ups. This has been dubbed the millennial subsidy. However, latest economic trends suggest that millennial subsidy may be coming to an end, including in India, and the party is getting over. Shrikrishna Upadhyaya hosts Ritul Gaur and Saiyed Kamil to discuss millennial subsidy, economic cycles and the future of start-up funding and innovation.

    How to grow the pie: Entrepreneurship and Employment

    How to grow the pie: Entrepreneurship and Employment

    IWWAGE report: 

    1. Women workers and India's emerging gig economy <https://iwwage.org/wp-content/uploads/2020/08/IWWAGE-Gig-Economy-Report.pdf>

    In this episode, we explore what it takes for women to set up big businesses that create employment. India was amongst the lowest-ranked countries in the world in a global index on women entrepreneurs. If we can accelerate female entrepreneurship in India, it could potentially create 150–170 million jobs by 2030 and transform the Indian economy. So how do we grow this pie?

    Our three guests, Monisha Advani, co-founder of Emmay Entertainment and one of the few women to head a production company, Hemalatha Annamalai, serial entrepreneur, and founder of Ampere Vehicles, and Nupur Garg, founder of WinPE, and a leading investor in private equity, discuss how women entrepreneurs can be equipped to reach their potential, with host Sunaina Kumar.

    Minding Her Own Business: Women Entrepreneurs in India

    Minding Her Own Business: Women Entrepreneurs in India

    In this episode, we explore women and entrepreneurship in India. Entrepreneurship offers women the opportunity to participate in the economy, which is essential in a country where women are dropping out of the workforce, and struggling to find suitable jobs. The share of enterprises owned by women is just over 20 percent. These businesses are mostly micro or small enterprises, concentrated in the informal sector and generate low revenues. The potential for women’s entrepreneurship is huge, but women entrepreneurs need support and policy interventions.

    Our two guests, Neharika Vohra, vice-chancellor at the Delhi Skill and Entrepreneurship University and Deepthi Ravula, CEO of WeHub, a platform for women entrepreneurs by the government of Telangana, along with host Sunaina Kumar discuss the social, structural and economic barriers that women face and look for solutions to support women’s entrepreneurship.

    The episode includes stories from different parts of the country of women who run micro and small enterprises.

    1. Ila Shah is a pharmacist and manager of Lok Swasthya Health Cooperative in Ahmedabad. The cooperative is supported by the Self Employed Women’s Association (SEWA).

    2. Bablu Bhowmik is self-employed, she runs a home business of fish farming in Jolaibari, Tripura. Her work is supported by Sesta Development Services.

    He's Our Ron Swanson

    In the wake of community outrage over an idea pitched by the Lakeland Economic Development Council that included the possibility of developing the land that is currently the Cleveland Heights municipal golf course, we decided to start the conversation with the man in charge of it all. Bob Donahay, Director of Parks and Recreation for the City of Lakeland shares his insight into the history of the course,  the challenges, the opportunities and how the future of the course can effect Lakeland for years to come.  Regardless of what comes of The Heights down the road, one thing is for sure.  Bob Donahay, a.k.a. Lakeland's very own "Ron Swanson," has spent a lifetime of making Lakeland's parks the best they can be.
