At Palmetto, we believe bold leadership and meaningful dialogue are essential to accelerating the transition to clean energy. That’s why we’re thrilled to share some exciting news: our Chief Government Affairs Officer, Neil Chatterjee, is joining the widely respected podcast Political Climate as a co-host.
Political Climate—produced by Latitude Media in partnership with Boundary Stone Partners—is known for its candid, bipartisan conversations about the political forces shaping the global energy transition. The show brings together expert voices across the political spectrum to discuss how policy, innovation, and regulation intersect to drive climate progress.
Neil will be joining returning hosts Julia Pyper and Brandon Hurlbut, bringing decades of experience in energy regulation and policy to the mic. A former Chairman of the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC), Neil is uniquely positioned to offer insights into the inner workings of energy policy—and how we can move toward pragmatic, lasting solutions in a polarized environment.
Neil’s new role as co-host reflects our mission at Palmetto: to make clean energy accessible, understandable, and actionable. Whether he’s advising lawmakers, leading regulatory strategy, or now—speaking directly to thousands of listeners—Neil continues to champion the critical conversations that move our industry forward.
“I’m honored to join the Political Climate team,” said Neil. “This show has always been a space for thoughtful, informed discussion. I look forward to sharing insights from the frontlines of energy policy and engaging in dynamic conversations that push our sector forward.”
You can catch new episodes of Political Climate every other Monday on all major podcast platforms. With Neil now part of the team, we’re even more excited to hear what’s next.
