abundance on earth

full-stack climate startups - the most audacious, but also the ones that have the best short to transform industries and become generational companies https://t.co/Qvswv4hlkO

Antora’s thermal battery has established a new ultra-high-temperature record, storing energy above 1,800°C.

That temperature “opens up pretty much every industrial process,” said Antora co-founder and CEO Andrew Ponec in @FastCompany: https://t.co/VoM71aSBty

We have no time to waste when it comes to decarbonizing industry.

The DOE recently launched a $6B initiative to fund first-of-a-kind industrial decarbonization demonstrations, and @CanaryMediaInc breaks down the details: https://t.co/AP7R2SII1p

[Antora Energy @antoraenergy]

Right now, our team and trusted partners are installing the world’s first field demonstration of a thermal battery capable of outputting zero-carbon heat and power. Inside this unit is one of the most abundant—and most incredible—materials on earth: carbon.

[Antora Energy @antoraenergy]

After years of designing, testing, and prototyping, Antora is launching our first demonstration unit to deploy zero-carbon industrial heat and power.

[Loam Bio AU @loambio]

Our mission towards gigatonne scale CO2 removal using microbes to build long-term stable soil carbon is accelerating with the launch of our SecondCrop program in Australia and the completion of our Series B funding round of A$105m (US$73m).

Historically, the only way to cost-effectively heat things up has been to burn something—and emit all kinds of pollutants along the way. No longer. We’ve built the world’s first dedicated manufacturing line for thermophotovoltaic (TPV) cells and demonstrated heat-to-electricity

Whenever I talk about EVs, someone always asks "what about emissions from battery production & minerals?" Turns out: upstream emissions associated with producing gasoline for an ICE vehicle are larger than those 'embedded' in minerals and battery production for an EV. ⤵️

[Gerard Reid @gerardreid14]

Picture of the Week: Exponential growth in #EV sales continues. Over 25% of new #cars sold this year in both #China and #Europe are electric. 4 Years ago, #EV purchase rates were 2%. In 2018 there were 1.8m EV sold. This year it is likely to be over 11m up 70% on last year!!

A great day in the future of Australia’s decarbonisation.

Thank you to the incredible, talented individuals stepping up to help guide @AGLEnergy into its next chapter 👊🏻
and the amazing shareholders who overwhelmingly supported them 👏🏻

[GOTERRA @GoterraAus]

Big day for team @GoterraAus today

We are officially in 4 states

By end of this year we will have 5 facilities.

For those following along at home. That’s a 3 state expansion in (checks notes ) 10 months.

A major climate win as AGL, Australia's largest power company, commits to exit coal 10 years earlier than planned. This wouldn't have happened without the tireless work of @LucieHankin, @JeremyKwongLaw, and especially @mcannonbrookes. Incredible effort. https://t.co/uICblU6IXH

1/Do we live in a linear world?

This is global battery electric vehicle sales.

The question is where do we go from here?

[sam tidswell @SamTidswell]

@bryanjrollins @olympiayarger It’s obvious right, BYO plunger to work for upcycled coffee grounds???

@antoraenergy @lowercarbon @Breakthrough Deep dive into the tech, team and mission here https://t.co/6pu8Oj4ZBf

[sam tidswell @SamTidswell]

What’s more reliable + just as cheap as fossil fuel based heat + power? 🤔

💡@antoraenergy's “toaster-tech” that turns sun/wind into 24/7 heat + power

Congrats to Antora team + stoked to participate in Series A alongside @lowercarbon and @Breakthrough

https://t.co/Wlxd1202jX

[Antora Energy @antoraenergy]

What’s hot as hell and dirt cheap? Antora Energy’s tech. They turn sun+wind into 24/7 heat+power, cheaper than fossil fuels. Join Antora Energy to help electrify heavy industry with zero-carbon heat+power —and impact climate change.

🧵 Budget next month! Big chance to double down on our biggest economic opportunity… decarbonisation.

It isn’t an “environment portfolio” issue. It is an all of economy issue 🇳🇿🌏

@joshfrydenberg, if decarbonisation wasn’t just a mention, it could look something like this 👇🏻

[George Peppou @peppsyd]

Who wants $1,000 cash?

All you have to do is introduce me to the smartest, most passionate people you know. Refer someone we hire for any of our dozen plus open roles and if we hire them I'll give you $1,000 cash👇🧵(1/8)
