2022 was a big year for Climate Tech. The Inflation Reduction Act, also known as the Climate Bill, was a shot in the arm for investors. But what emerges from the flood of money, and what doesn’t make the cut? Here’s our take on the Climate Tech trends we’ll see in 2023👇🏽
I *cannot* wait to get out there in the wilds with my Lightship listening to the gentle rambles of a nearby trout-filled brook instead of a noisy generator!
Congrats to Toby Kraus, Benjamin Parker, and the entire team at Lightship on their Series B raise, which will enable them to fill all those preorders. Here's how an electric waffle maker and a road trip led to the founding of their company. https://t.co/ANSjaKcmQy
Flipping the Switch on Home Decarbonization. Very excited to join forces with @hayleybay and the @firstround team to back @joinarbor. I have known Arbor's leader Andrew Meyer for over a decade. His values, grit and focus have always impressed me. Arbor's unique take on home decarbonization is sure to make it a leader in this critical part of tackling our changing climate.

Love the work our friends @fiftyyears are doing to support early stage climateXbio work. Not at all surprised to see them cutting new ground -- thank you
1/ Solutions to the climate crisis are already here. But they're stuck in academic labs.
Often, after the basic science is done, there’s just a little more work needed to show the science has commercial potential. But no one funds this!
Introducing Manifest Climate!
Carbon accounting and carbon trading are as vexing as they are important. Julia Sekuda's piece in @mcjpod is a great place to start to get smart on the spectrum of challenges and importance.

Lots of people talking about V2G...not that many people doing it. Congrats to the team at Synop for helping to balance the grid during a tough summer. I know you're just getting warmed up.
🌞 Summer is heating up, and so are our #V2G projects! This week, in collaboration with partners, we successfully deployed our advanced energy management software on three #EV school buses in Vermont, enabling them to deliver an impressive 1.44 MWh of energy back to the grid. That's enough to power 51 homes for an entire day! 🔌 #V2Gsummer
60 million Americans and 35% of small businesses don’t have access to traditional banking services.
Embedded finance is, at its essence, the offering of financial services at the point of transaction instead of at a bank.

Thanks so much to @vijaychattha and the @VSCVentures crew for having me on the podcast. So much to talk about in the always-lively early-stage climatetech world
