Last week, we told you about a new web series called Ask an Expert. Well, Episode 1 is finally here and it's all about ENERGY!

In its debut, questions about energy that were tweeted to @singularityu with the #AskSU hashtag are answered by Gregg Maryniak, the Energy and Environmental Systems Chair at Singularity University. Questions include:

  • What's preventing widespread adoption of renewable energy?
  • What can I do locally to support renewable energy use?
  • Do toilet turbines actually work?

Be sure to tune in to next week's episode about autonomous vehicles! And remember, to submit your questions on Twitter!
