    Good content
    I appreciate the depth of information coverage. My only criticism is audio quality. I listen to a lot of podcasts, and Currents has noticeably worse audio quality.
  • nottinx
    Expert analysis
    Timely, relevant and expert analysis of topics related to project finance and renewable energy.
  • BrevityRules
    Great content. Need better audio/recording
    The content is really good. Please figure out audio quality as it is less than par quality. It applies specifically to hosts.
  • Matty4300
    Straight from the horses mouth
    One of my favorite things about the energy transition is the direct access to people who are in business and their willingness to share their thoughts. This podcast is a great example - nothing but profiles of important players in the business side of the wider effort to save life on earth. I’m not a capitalist but understanding the business environment is critical to my work - thank you for what you all do to bring this info to the public.
  • Unhappy Daily user
    Great insights
    Best way for a quick update of the trends and issues in the energy business. Very nicely unpackaged by the very knowledgeable moderator.
  • wherestravis
    Perfect for project finance professionals but poor audio quality
    Finally found a way to efficiently keep current on PFI issues, from trustworthy industry experts. Love it, keep em coming!! Also, I'd be happy to see these go a bit longer and deeper into the subject matter. HOWEVER, if Norton Rose is reading this, PLEASE have an audio technician take a look at (1) the recording equipment and (2) the post processing. It's terribly "grainy" sound. The host and guests really need to be mic'd up appropriately, and the audio should be recorded/released in higher fidelity. It comes off as very amateurish and would only take a couple of minutes and <$100 to fix.
  • PFProfessional
    Great source for project finance news
    Excellent podcast for keeping up with current trends in project finance from a reputable source. Topics span energy and infrastructure, including renewables.
  • Twitchgal1
    Informative but hard to hear
    Great SMEs as guests, but really frustrating to listen when the speakers' volume is all over the place during each podcast- or it's especially quiet which makes me crank my volume up to make out the dialogue. Turned the last episode off halfway after changing the volume up and down so many times in the first 10 minutes. If this could be fixed, I'd love to be a more regular listener.
  • Harrington_ER
    Excellent
    Great dialogue and insight from a reputable source, looking forward to upcoming topics.
